Still Talking About the Murder

London, Nov. 12.
The latest Whitechapel murder is still the leading topic of discussion, and all of the old theories as to the identity of the murderer are revived. The face of the woman Kelly, when her body was found, resembled a bloody ball. The nose, ears and cheeks were missing, but the eyes had not been touched. Surgeons stitched the face together as best they could, but it was found impossible to identify the woman from such of her features as were intact or drawn together.
