ONE Of the amusing incidents Of the
free silver controversy is the Intelligen-
GERS charge that the REGIsrER's advice
20 postpone action on the Bland bill is
'cowardly." A vote was reached Fri

and It was lost by tie vote las to AS.
All the Republicans except II voting
with the 81 Democrats 70 postpone. II

at the foot Of the calendar and can only

THE VIEWS OF THE POLICE.
The London Authorities Say Deeming May
Re the aRfpper A." Rut 1t Is Not Likely,

Be the "Ripper," But 1t Is Not Likely.
LONDON, March 26.--The papers here to-
day published the STORY of Deeming's con-
fession as .cabled from Melbourne. The
story caused the most intense excitementin
Whitechapel and the papers sold there like
wildfire. Ever since the series OF murders
was started in that district women of the
class to which the victims belonged have
been in mortal terror of their lives.
Driven by absolute poverty or innate de-
pravity TO ply their hideous vocation, they
have never known at what moment they
might fall beneath the keen knife OF the
assassin, whose nom de guerre of Jack the
Ripper was sufficient TO cause them 10
tremble in their shoes when they were for
tunate enough to possess them.
Though no Ripper" murder has occurr-
ed in Whitechapel for some little time the
report that the assassin had at last fallen
into the hands Of the police removed load
from the minds of the unfortunate deizens
of that district. There is much difficulty
in fixing the two Whitechapel murders to
which Deeming is said TO have confessed.
Altogether ten murders are attributed 10
"Jack the Ripper" there is much doubt as
TO whether the last two were committed oy
the same hand that committed the other
eight. The police of the Leman Street Sta
ton do not place much belief in the confeS-
sion that Deeming committed these last
two crimes. The last Whitechapel murder,
that of Frances Cole, occurred in 1890.
Her body was mutilated and certain
organs had been taken out. The bodies
of the other victims were found on the
streets where they had fallen, after the
murderer had cut their Threats, but the
body of Frances Cole was found concealed
in an empty house at Westham.
ota hof
not Deeming. They say they were at one
time close upon the murderer's track, but
they afterward lost all trace Of him. They
learned enough, however, to know that
Deeming did not kill her. They admit
however, that if the confession refers TO
the murder of Alice Mackenzie, which
occurred in 1889, and of Mary Kelly, which
was committed in 1883, it is possible that
Deeming is telling the truth.
