LONDON. Oct. 2.-The excitement occa-
stoned by the latest Whitechapel murders
has increased rather than abatcd The
police have mtde no progress in their eff
forts TO establish a clew TO the murderer,
and have further lost public confidence in
their efficiency by the fact that the persons
arrested on suspicion Of connection
with the tragedies were released
for want Of even scintilla of
evidence upon which to justify their
retention in custody. They profess to be
hopeful Of success, however, and many
people are inclined to hope with them in
the absence of any suspicion in their own
minds even remotely defined as to the
criminals motive, calling or identity. The
private rewards offered for his arrest, add
Ell to that Of the Lord Mayor, bring the
to- al sum up to e1 200. and it is likely that
it will soon reach $1,000. The Stock tx
