Från skilda håll
Blodhundar i London. Polis-direktören Charles Warren, lätt i onsdags anställa de första för- sken med blodhundar.Han begaf sig till Hyde Park och lät sig följas af blodhundar, som skulle ledas af lukten af hans stöflar. En stund föjde hundarne spåret, men derefter förlorade de det och följde ett annat. Försöket upprepades 5 gånger, men lyckades blott 1 gång. Man anser emellertid, att hundarne skola kunna ypptäcka mördarens spår, om han efter nästa förbrytelse har blod på kläderna eller fötterna. För öfrigt har man ej gjort den minsta upptäckt angående upphofsmannen tillförbrytel-serna.

Aftonbladet monday the 15th october 1888
Bloodhounds in London. Last Wednesday Chief of Police Charles Warren carried out the first tests using bloodhounds. He went to Hyde Park and had the bloodhounds trace him by the scent of his boots. At first the dogs were following the trace but then they lost it and started to follow another. This test was repeated five times but succeded only once. However, it is belived that the dogs could trace the murderer if he were to have blood on his clothes or feet after his next crime. It might be added nothing what so ever has been discovered about the murderer's identity.
