WARSAW, March 25.-Rumors OF war
fill the air here and they are given the
appearance OF truth by the presence in
Poland of an immense number of soldiers,
who have been gathered from many parts
of the Russian dominions. 1t may be
however, that this massing of troops is not
for offensive purposes. but merely for the
object of preparing for the usual spring
manuevers. But the proximity of these
large bodies of troops to the Prus-
sian frontiers, whatever the object
of the military authorities may be, causes
a general feeling of uneasiness that the
least spark may start confagration. tho
results of which no one can foretell. This
feeling of anxiety has been added to by
the fact that the German authorities are
evidently taking steps to learn from per-
sonal observation the strength and dispo-
sition of the Russian forces. They are not
trying to learn these facts of supreme
military importance through ordin-
airy spies, but are using balloons as
the means to attain their object. OF late,
in fact ever since the reports circulated of
the arrival in Poland of large numbers of
Russian troops, several balloons. which
camo from the German frontier, have
been seen lowering over the Russian for
tresses and camps. These balloons are
believed here to form part of an extensive
German balloon spy service. Recently
balloon was floating above the fortress at
KovnO. So certain were the officers
stationed there that the object of
the ballonists was to learn military
secrets that orders were given TO
fire upon the balloon. Notwithstanding
the long range of the modern rifle. it was
impossible To hit the balloon, which was
at a very high altitude, and its occupants,
by means of glasses, pursued their investi-
CATION entirely undisturbed by the bullets
aimed in their direction. A close watch
was kept upon the balloon, and the watch
ers were surprised to find that it appeared
to be under perfect control. After
lowering about the fortress for
no little time il returned to
the German frontier. its occupants
evidently having gained the knowledge

a balloon was seen that gave a flat contra

the time was blowing fresh breeze.
When it had reached a point above the
military camp, it stopped for time and
then manuevered in manner that showed
it was provided with a highly perfected

authorities believe, and the handling of
the balloons that have appeared over
Russian territory give good grounds for
| their belief that France and Germany
possess sufficient balloon steering APP

at the city hospital a man. a post norton ex-
animation on whose body today revealed that
the fellow an ostrich in human form. His
true name was John w. Gorman, but he was
known in museums as James Kennedy. On
the 21st inst. he was admitted to the hospital
suffering from mechanical gastritis. Emetics
given him caused the election of nearly half
pint of nails screws. etc. This failing to relieve
him laparoty was performed resulting in the
removal of much more hardware, but to no
avail, for the fellow died in a short time. At
the post norton examination the stomach, its
walls and lining were found entirely normal,
but literally filled with the nails
screws, tacks and broken glass, which
the man had swallowed. A remarkable feature
of them were encysted and that there WAS not
one instance of perforation of any part of the
stomach or throat by the sharp points or edges
base of the tongue back to the esophagus and
the nails, tecks, glass, etc, were found. In the
stomach itself was also found almost q handful

A QUEER SUIT.
A Young Lady's Trial for Damages for
False imprisonment.

LONDON. March 25.-The suit Of Miss Daisy
Hopkins against the Rev. Mr.. Wallis Proctor
of Trinity hall, Cambridge. for $1,000 damages
for false imprisonment in connection with her
arrest on the charge of walking the streets
with q university man." has excited wide
spread interest.
Miss Hopkins resumed her testimony this
morning. In response to questions to her she
denied most emphatically that she had ever
held improper relations with any man or had
ever associated with prostitutes. She had been
engaged 10 be married for two years. The uni
versity authorities have, throughout the whole
affair, maintained that they would be able to
prove that the arrest was justifable, and that
Miss Hopkins was in the company of the
under graduate for immoral purposes. Upon
the conclusion OF Miss Hopkins testimony
which was the only evidence offered to support
her claim for damages, the defense called as
witness the university constable, a man named
Mason, who had arrested her. He testified
that he had watched the plaintiff for three
years. After he had arrested her and was tax
ing her to the Spinning house they met O
woman who was known 10 be prostitute. As
this woman passed him and his prisoner the
plaintiff turned to her and said: 'It's you who
have rounded on me-"
The case was given to the jury which, in q
short time, returned/a verdict against Miss
Hopkins. The verdict caused great surprise
among the friends OF the girl. who always be-
Geved her life to be blameless.
There is no doubt the case will be appealed.

Sensation at Rain HUI.
The Liverpool police who have charge
of the Rain-hill case have no further
knowledge of confession made by Deem
ing than that contained in the press
dispatch from Melbourne. The story
Of the confession has caused
an immense sensation in the
Rain-hill district, but it was
not required to convince the residents
there that Deeming had killed the woman
and four children found at Dinham villa,
whose bodies now lie in the parish church
yard. 1t was only the confederation of
the belief of every one in the vicinity of
Liverpool that he was the murderer. The
Scotland yard authorities have received
no private information from Melbourne
regarding the confession and they attach
little importance to Deeming's statements
that he killed two of the Whitechapel
women. They say they believe Deem
ing's object in making the confession is to
secure a remand and so be brought to
England. This they add is q well-known
trick OF criminals

MELBOURNE, March 26.-Considersble
excitement was caused here today by
statement published by the Argus, which
declared that Deeming. the murderer. had
made a confession. There has been a
strong suspicion here and in England that
Deeming is none other than the notorious
slack the Ripper" the slayer OF the
fWhitechapel, London, outcasts, and this
Seuspicion is borne out in q measure
not only by Deeming's appearance, which
closely tallies with the description given
of the Whitechapel fsnd, but by his
alleged confession. The Argus is a reliable
newspaper, and there is no reason to
doubt the truthfulness of the statement
1t makes today that Deeming has acknowl-
edged that he killed his wife and four
children at Dinham villa, at Rain-hill,
near Liverpool, and that he muir
dered and mutiIated the last two women
whose bodies were found in the purlieus
of Whitechapel. Although he has ad-
pitted that those two Whitechapel
women fell victims to his mania for
murder, he. while not denying, does not
admit that he killed the other White
chapel women, whose murders at the time
attracted the attention of the whole world.
1t Is believed, however, that when be finds
all hope OF escape from the clutches OF the
law cut off, he will confess, not only
these murders but others of which the
police know nothing. In his confessions,
the Argus SAYS, Deeming makes no men
ton OF his object of mutilating the bodies
of his Whitechapel victims and removing
certain of the organs but, it adds, there is
ycarcely doubt that the man is afflicted
with disease similar In some respects to
nymphomania. The case is a most peculiar
one in all it's aspects, and public curiosity
here is excited 10 the highest pitch to
learn all the details of Deemings many
yrimes.
He Confessss To an Officsr.
It is said that Deeming made his con-
fession to an official at Perth, West Aus
tralia, where he was arrested on the
charge of having murdered his wife at
Windsor, a suburb OF Melbourne. Deem
Ing secured counsel end made a strong
fightagainst being sent back to Melbourne,
but the court ordered his surrender to
the authorities of this city, and yesterday
started in custody of officers on his
return. He told the Perth official, to
whom he made his confession, that he
was not guilty of the Windsor murder.
his wife. he claimed, had eloped with
another man. 1t has transpired that the
unfortunate woman whose body was
found, together with those of her four
children, under the floor of the Rain
OK frat
wife. Some years ago q sensation
was created in Australia by the mysterious
disappearance Of the wife and TWO chill
dren OF a man who then went by the
name OF Williams, but who turns out to be
Deeming. The family then resided in
Sydney. There was grave suspicion of
foul play at the time but the bodies were
not found and the essential proof of muir
der being lacking, the matter was allowed

England. and then il was he married the
