Simla, April 21.-Major-G General Sir

relief force, telegraphed this morning
that Major Deane learned last night
that the Chitral fort had been relieved.
The news reached Major Deane through

JACK THE RIPPER AGAIN.
An indication That He Has Transferred
His Operations to Gotham.
a Woman of the Town Mutilated
in Horrible Manner, and an
Italian is Suspected Of Having
Committed the Atrocious Crime.

New York, April PA murder was
brought to light in Bellevue hospital
this afternoon, which is suggestive in
some of it's details of the White Chapel
crimes in London, that made Jack
the Ripper notorious. The victim is
woman of the lowest class. Her
name was Alice Welsh, and she was
well known in the resorts in the neigh
borhood of Bleecker and Thompson
streets. When the autopsy was per-
formed upon her body it was discover
ed that
CERTAIN MUTILATIONS
had been made which distinguished
the White Chapel murders, although
not of so serious a character. Up to a
late hour the murderer had not been
arrested, but one man who is thought
to have had some knowledge of the
matter, was held on suspicion.
The circumstances of the killing Of
Alice Walsh are peculiar in almost
every aspect About o'clock this
morning, a woman was found in the
L
half unconscious and bleeding. The
woman was conveyed TO st. Vincents
hospital. Every effort of the physic-
ians to stop
THE FLOW OF BLOOD
proved futile and the patient expired
at 1115 o'clock During that period
she showed no signs of returning con-
sciOusness, and died without indicat-
ing in any way how she met with the
circumstances which resulted in her
death In the course of the afternoon,
DR.. Philip O'HanlOn, the Coroner's S
physician, made a post-mortem exam
ination of the body and discovered the
real cause of death. He found that
the woman was bruised and black and
blue in almost every part of her body.
He found also that she had been bru-
tally mutilated with a knife or dagger
and that the wounds thus resulting
had started the hemorrhage which had
TERMINATED FATALLY.
The wounds were for the most part
intestinal and superficial, at least those
that had been made by the knife or
dagger.
After much searching about the
neighborhood, the police found that the
woman, in company with tall, broad
shouldered man, who looked like an
Italian, a woman known as "Gimpy"
Amanda, a girl called "Teenie," and
another man, had spent a portion of
tho early morning hours in the saloon
OF L. N. Garland, at No. 1OS West
Houston street. While in there she
became
GREATLY INTOXICATED
and she and her tall companion quar-
relied. They left there, so far as
could be ascertained, at about o'clock
a. m. What happened to her or where
she went during the intervening two
hours, cannot at present be told.
1t is surmised that the man who
killed her is the Italian stranger, in
whose company she was in Garland's S
saloon.

Providence, r. /, April 21.-The
weavers of the Providence and Ma
tional Worsted Mills have requested
permission to strike. and the district
council is now considering the re-
quest. but hesitates about granting
it. as it may cause a general shutdown
of all the mills of Olneyville. The
Providence and National mills, which
are under one management, employ
$500 operatives. The employees say
they will strike unless their wages are
increased. They claim as they make
the same class of goods as Congress
man Arnold'S mill at Westerly, which
recently increased wages. they should
have their scale increased.

trolley sprinkler car, of the Mount
Troy branch of the Pleasant Valley
electric system, is responsible for the
death of one and proba bly, two women.
Car 60 left the top of the hill at $50
o'clock and was followed out by the
sprinkler. When half down the steep
hill one of the four passengers in the
first car, Miss Della Dooley, noticed
the sprinkler flying toward them. She
ran to the door and jumped, pulling
the conductor with her. The back of
her head struck the curbstone and
her skull was crushed. She died
in a few moments. The conductor,
John McAllister, was badly hurt
and bruised. Two of the other
passengers were John Andrews and
Mary Widner. They are engaged to
be married, and were coming from the
church of the late Father Mollinger,
where their bans had just been pub

and was followed by her lover. She
alighted on her face and head, and is
so badly in ured she may die. Andrews
was injured internally. One hundred
yards from where the three passen-
gers jumped, the sprinkler struck car
so, which was just turning a curve.
Both cars jumped the track, and ran
into the sidewalk, where they stopped.

posts, and the one passenger, who was

The Fight at Coney Island Results In an
Easy Victory for O'DOnneIl.
CoNEY ISLAND, n. Y, May 7.-Since
Goddard and Maher fought here in De-
cember, 1892, there has not been a
heavyweight contest brought off in the
vicinity of New York. The fact that
Jake Kilrain, of Baltimore, and Steve
ODonnel, of Australia, were to
meet here last night at catchweights
in a twenty-five round go, nat
urally attracted a large crowd of
sports, as every person who had an
opportunity was anxious to see these
heavyweight pugilists prove which
was the better man, after the very I'M
satisfactory ten round draw which
they fought short time ago in Boston.
O'Donnel climbed the ropes at $50
and Young Critic was then amongst
his seconds. who by this time num-
bered half dozen. Kilrain arrived
minute later, and in comparison with
his tall opponent he looked as an ele-
plant. O'DonnelPs weight was said
to be $50 pounds and Kilrain's thirty
pounds more.
The men shook hands. at 10 o'clock,
and Kilrain looked very beefy when he
stripped.
O'Donne11 had the best of it from the
first. but did not succeed in finishing
his opponent until the twenty first
round, when heavy blow on the jaw
knocked Kilrain down. and the referee
declared O'Donne1l the winner.
After the bout was finished Charlie
Johnson said he would bet $40, 900 that
Sullivan would whip the winner in
half the time.
