A Horrible story Told by n Woman
with ,rhom He had Lodged

LONDON, Oct. ia sensation OF
the most enormous proportions was
caused here by the statement made
yesterday by n lodging-house keel :
er who Is located In the Whitechapel
district ami claims that IL was at
her house that Jack the Ripper
lived during his sanguinary esca-
pades thereabouts. The woman
who keeps the house came 10 Albert
Baekert, chairman OF the vigilance
committee, and in the presence OF
several witnesses told her story and

The woman, who Is 4 respectable
person, known 10 the police TO be

period marked by the distinctive
murders Of the "ltiPper" a young
man called at her house aud en-
gagged a bedroom. He stated 10 her,

that ne had been to sea up TO the
time Of his coming there, and that
now he did not WORK st all, but was
in receipt Of an allowance from his
father Of El per week, and that his
brother, who was n physician, gave
him a further allowance Of a trifie
over this amount. When he took
possession Of the apartment the wo-
man noticed that he had n great
quantity Of clothing Of all kinds, in
Guiding bunting breeches, as well as
several revOlvers, guns and many
other articles not often found in the
outfit Of n workingran. He asked
for a door key, which was given
him, and she noticed that he went
out and came in at unusual and IL
regular hours Of the night.
What finst excited her suspicion
that there was something unusual
about him was the bloody condition
in which she often found the towels
sent to his room. She finally spoke
TO the man Of this and demonstrated
with him for soiling the articles In
such a manner, and asked what had
caused such a profusion OF blood.
He endeavOred TO explain the thing
away by saying that he was very

Further than this, the woman
stated that she knows from her OWL
knowledge that he sent several
persons pieces Of what appeared tC
be raw liver.
One afternoon she happened in
his room for the purpose Of attend
ing 10 some OF her household duties
and there she saw him with a news
paper spread out upon the table and
upon It n large piece Of raw meat,
which she at n distance took TO be

Upon another occasion, somewhat
later than this, she saw the man dc
up a piece Of this meat In a small
box, tie il securely and address it q
the chairman Of the vigilance com

Of lavishness not often met In that
locality.
On the morning Of the Castle
alley murder, which was the last
that Jack has thus far committed,

reason for not speaking earlier tht
fact that she did not suspect the
identity Of the man until after he
had got beyond her reach, and then
she feared 10 go to the police, hui
the secret 20 weighed upon hei
mind that she could keep it nc
longer.
