The crimes of Joseph Vacher sur
passed in number and atrocity those of
the White Chapel murderer, also known
as Jack -the-Ripper. - His homicidal
mania first broke out in 1891. He
claimed, after his arrest, that, as every
action has an object, and as his motive
was neither theft nor vengeance,
his responsibility was established.
Physiologically, physicians regarded
the case as interesting. 1t was shown
that Vacher had been confied in an
asylum for the insane, and that, while
during military duty, a love affair
caused him to attempt his self
destruction by shooting.
The victims of Vacher were shepherds
and shepherdess, and his rage was
particularly decided against young
girls. He first cut the throats OF his
victims with knife, and afterwards
mutilated them with q razor. He was
arrested last year, after the police had
searched for him for long time.
In defence of Vacher, it was pointed
out that, when a youth, he was bitten
by mad dog, and that the village
herbslist gave him some medicine,
after drinking which he became irri-
table and brutal, whereas he bad pre-
yiously been quiet aud inoffensive. 1t
also appears from those statements
that, from that time he developed a
passion for human blood.
Referring to his crimes, .Vacher is
quoted as saying: My victims never
suffered, for, while 1 throttled them
with one hand, / simply took their
lives with sharp instrument in the
other. / am an anarchist, and | am
opposed to society, no matter what the
| form Of government may be-" :.
This desperate criminal was no
| toriously vain, and fancied himself q
hero. He refused to speak about his
| crimes, except ON two conditions. One
| was that the full story of his murders
be published in the leading French
papers, and the other was that ht
should be tried separately for eacf
crime in the district where il was com
mitted.
The exact number of Vacher's VIC
tins will never be known, but il il
said that % assassinations were brough
homo to him in October last, and thu
number was added to as time wore on
In fact, it is doubtful whether tn,
murderer himself Isnew the real mum
Der of his victims. He nonchalantl.
told tho story Of some fresh TRACED.
from time to time to the examining
magistrate as the details camo back t.
his mind, and in each case the invosti
cation furnished full confederation 0
Vacher's narrative. The bodies in eacl
case werc found in the places indicated
in lonely thiclSuts, or III unused wells
He seemed to have killed merely TO
the sake of killing.
