The Whitechapel Murder

Up to midnight no further information had transpired respecting the Whitechapel murder. Whatever information may be in possession of the police they deem it necessary to keep secret, but considerable activity is being exercised in keeping a watch on suspected persons. It is believed that their attention is particularly directed to two individuals, one a notorious character known as "Leather Apron," and the other a seafaring man.
