LONDON, 10th September
Numerous arrests have been made of persona suspected of being contested with the recent Lorrible marders in the vistaity of Whitechapel, but none of those arrested have been kald.
As yet the Spitalfields murderer has not been caught, and the prospels that he will be are rapidly falling. The detectives are losing their heads completely under the influence of the at- tanks of the newspapers and the rationis of the populace, and appear to be farther from the start than ever. Not one of the persuas, arrested on suspicion has been connected with any remote instances that could induce the belief that he was even aware that the murders had been committed!
The mystery arrounding the recent marder in the east end of London has induced exports to advise the police to make exhaustivo inquiries ungerning persons recently discharged from laustic asylums as ouret. A man sumarh the description of one of these was rated to day. He exhibited homicidal tendencies, and will be closely watched. Two prominant Poom vi sited the scene of the marder to-day.
