The Whitechapel Murderer
Sacramento, March 26.
A special to the Bee says Deming (sic). The man arrested in Australia, and supposed to be Jack the Ripper, has confessed that he murdered his wife and four children near Liverpool, and that he also murdered the last two Whitechapel victims. His description answers that of Jack the Ripper. The confession is published in the Melbourne Argus.
