Deeming's Horrible Crimes Worthy
the Celebr ated Ripper.

the Celebrated Ripper.
MELBOURNE, March 29.-Deemlng is
guarded night and day aboard the Ballarat
by seven watchers. 1t has been discov-
cred that the appearance of his shaving
his mustache is due to the plucking out of
the hair by the roots in order to battle
identification. The detective accompany
ing Deeming hints that he possesses links
in the chain of evidence showing that
Deeming committed some of the murders
attributed to Jack the Ripper"
LIVERPOOL, March 29.-Dr. Hutchinson,
one of the medical men who conducted
the post-mortem examination on the
bodies of Mrs. Deeming and four children,
found buried under the floor at Dinham
villa, Rainhiil, said to a representative of
the Associated Press that the crime dis
closes calculating wickedness and heart
less savagery almost beyond belief. The
work of murder was by an expert; only
in one case was the stroke causing death
more than sufficient for the purpose.
Each stroke touched several vital organs,
and no more might have been accom-
plished by surgeon or a butcher who
knew his business well. The mother and
children had partaken of their evening
meal.
The mother was first called into the
room where the murderer was awaiting
her. 1t appears that as she stopped to I'M
tie his shoe she was attacked from behind
and died almost without struggle. Then
the children were called one by one to
meet their death.
Bertha. the eldest, had her thumbs tied
behind her back and a bandage wound
twice around her head so as to cover her
mouth and keep her from crying. A
pillowcase was placed over her head and
the murderer strangled her.
The hands of the second girl were also
tied behind her back, but in the case of
the other children this operation was not
thought necessary. One other significant
and sinister fact is that although the
threats of four out of the five victims were
cut, on none of the bodies or clothing was
there a trace of blood.
The very terms of the lease upon which
Deeming hired Dinham villa gave proof of
a hideous, cold-blooded, premeditated
butchery. The document, which was
drawn up and written by Deeming him.

the atrocities had already been planned.

compunction as an ordinary man would

Won BULow ABANDoNs BERLIN.

He Tries to Eulosize Bismarck, Is
Kissed, and Dusts His shoes.
BERLIN, March 29.-At the last philhar-
monte concert of the season this evening,
under the leadership OF Won Bulow, after
conducting Beethoven's "Erioca" Won
Bulow spoke at length of the
composer. He said that after
dedicating the symphony to Napoleon, he
changed his mind and dedicated it to
Lobkowitz, whom Won Bulow described as
nothing" He proposed, on behalf of
the German musicians. to rededicate it to
"the true hero, the bright day star of Ger
many, the Beethoven of politics, Prince
Bismarck" The whole speech was gar
nished with sarcastic illusions to current
events, which were received with Kisses
mingled with few cheers.
Pale with rage, Won Bulow made PAN
tomimic allusion to the emperor's Brand
enburg speech by brushing the dust off his
shoes, implying that he would never re-
turn to Berlin. The audience was con-
vulsed with Kisses and cheers, mingled
with laughter.

WASHINGTON CITY, March 29.-The Sem

Boring sea arbitration treaty. and it was
ratified by unanimous vote at the con-

itself was without incident. Sherman pre-
scented two amendments, which were
agreed to. One provides that the arguments
and proceedings be in the English lam
guage. Lord Salisbury has already as
sented to this, as well as to the second
amendment, which requires the arbitrators
to make decision, if possible, within four
months instead of three, from the close of
the arguments. All the correspondence in
the case has already been published. The

coma and win the election of Alexander
Parker.
What on earth are the Republicans do
ing?
At least they have not got candidate
whose record needs SO much attention.
Well it is for them that this is so, because
the Democrats of Tacoma are industrious
and a lighting chance" people. And they
have money with which to stiffen the back
bones now hoped over the linen cleansing
tub.
Speaking of money, here is word to the
able-bodied politicians now composing the
executive committee of the city Republic
can committee. The scene was of today's
occurrence. A Democratic ward worker
approaches q Democratic schemer and
says:
I've been offered money. What shall do?
Dor What shall you dol Why, take it man,
take IL; of course. Take all you can get, ana
tuck it in your jeans, and then fool EN-!
1t is doubtful, nevertheless, if any Re-
publican in authority would suggest re-
Enumeration for votes this early, if at all.
The Democrats groan under the weight
of George Hazard, who, having raised
funds for the Tacoma campaign, is dis
missed as milestone hung about the
necks of those who would free the city
from reckless ring. Dirty pay for dirty
work.
A young mems Republican committee,
composed of three representatives from
each ward was organized this evening to
enter the thick Of the fight for Huson.
The city council tonight Endorsed the
proposition to call a special election to
pass upon the issue of a million and a half
of bonds for establishing gravity water
supply from Clear lake and Mashell river.
Thus the Republican council goes on rec
ord in favor of the proposition now agitat-
ing the taxpayers. The city attorney was
instructed to draw an ordinance calling
special election, and to have the same
ready for the council to cogitate
upon at the regular meeting Satur-
day. For the balance of the campaign,
at least, Democratic sails will not belly so
roundly under the jibs of the Republicans
under political indictment of conniving at
dicker with the Tacoma Light ana Water
Company. Engineer Plummer, who as
sisted the citizens water commission in
arriving at a conclusion favoring the Clear
lake and Mashell river gravity supply, by
request. disapproyed of purchasing of the
Light and Water Company the results of
the blunders of its engineers. He explained
that he would not recommend pur-
chasing from the company any pipes
less than eight inches in diam
eter. There are miles of two-inch
pipe in the city. Again, he would not
recommend buying any part of the appa-
ratus at a price greater than the cost of
duplicating it. AS the proposed new sys-
tenn is to be gravity supply, while the
present plant utilities pumping apparatus,
the principal features of the latter would
be worthless.
Mr.. Huson has said he disapproved of
the purchase of the useless and unneces-
sary apparatus, and at the time of the
nomination declared to the PosT-INTELII-
CANCER in favor of the city owning the
water and light plant. Tonight he adds
plainly enough that he favors gravity sup
ply and municipal ownership.

Black Men Sold at Auction In the
SHAMELESS of ROnald's State.

FAYETTE, No., March 29.-Three negroes
were sold at public auction here today I'M
der the vagrancy act, which provides for
possession of the person sold to the pur-
chaser during the term Of his sentence.
G. w. Patterson, Henry Lee and Otto
Williams, all colored, have been convicted
of vagrancy, and the sheriff decided to
take advantage of the vagrancy act, and
advertised them for sale.
The sale was attended by great crowd,
including many negroes, who were highly
indignant and could scarcely be per-
suaded that slavery had not
returned. Patterson was knocked
down to a farmer for $25. Lee brought
only S., and Williams, decrepit old
negro, went for 81 to a cattle feeder. The
negroes are greatly exercised and threaten
vengeance.
