WANTED TO KILL THE MADAME

Women Terrified by a Supposed Jack the Ripper.

The women in Mme. Isabella Angel's house, at 105 West Thirty Second street, New York, firmly believe that a "Jack the Ripper" was among them last night.

One of the men is surrounding himself in a wall of secretiveness which the police are making herculean efforts to penetrate.
