Jack the Ripper in Washington
Washington, March 8. For some time anonymous letters have been received at police headquarters here. The letters refer to a detective whom the writer designates as a "Dr. Cronin" detective and who was to be "removed". Yesterday morning Maj. Moore, superintendent of police, received the following by mail:
Dear People: Wouldn't you like to catch me. I am Jack the Riper. I am going to kill eight more women before I give up. I am in the city. [Signed] Jack the Riper
