JACK THE RIPPER AGAIN.
A Fresh Victim Discovered at
Whiteohapel.
ONE MORE DIssOLUTE WOMAN

Found Horribly nIutilatsd in Castle Alley.
short Distance from whore the other
Murders Were Committed-The Excite
ment Is at Fever Heat.
LONDON, July l7.-One more murder has
been added to the long list credited to Jack
the Ripper in Whitechapel The body OF a
woman, evidently one OF the disreputable
frequenters OF the district, was found in
Castle alley, only short distance from where
the other murders were committed
Undoubtedly the Same Fiend's Work.
The body was horribly mutilated and bears
undoubted evidence Of the fiend whose atroci-
ties in Whitechapel have terrorized the whole
district repeatedly. The police are as far as
ever from clew to the identity Of the muir
derer and seem perfectly paralyzed
Excitement at Fever Heat.
The excitement throughout Whitechapel,
where the news Of the discovery Of a fresh
victim Of the mysterious ripper has spread
with tightening rapidity, is at fever heat
The Fiend Is Living.
Another account says; A low part Of White
chapel, called Old Castle street. was the scene
OF another atrocious murder of the too well
known Whitechapel type A large mass
Of clotted blood and traces Of desperate
struggle bear testimony that Jack the Ripper
has again resumed his deadly work of cutting
up the bodies Of unfortunate women who
have taken to the streets for a living.
-Four months ago the extra forcs Of police
men and detectives who had been on duty
specially for the purpose Of trapping the as
sassin were withdrawn, as it was thought
that there would be no more such terrible
outrages committed But it seems that the
cruel hearted, unnatural beast is still living.
The scene of the crime is in the same restrict
ed area, and once again the murderer is able
to shield himself from discovery 80 as to leave
no trace.
