THE WHITECHAPEL MURDERS

A man was arrested last night at the Crystal tavern, Burdett road, Mile end, on suspicion of being the Whitechapel murderer. He got into conversation with a woman, whom he asked to accompany him, but she refused. He afterwards addressed a photographer, who was soliciting orders, asking him if he could take some photographs, and using expressions which excited suspicion, and he was given in charge. He had given the address, Mr. Stewart, in Mile end road, but at the Bow Police station he gave the name of Ever. He appears to be a Polish Jew.
