'the whitechapel Two Mora Victims. L-onion. Sept. Sol This morning the entire city was-again startled by the news that two more murders had been aftded to the list of mysterious crimes that have "recently beencommitted in At an early hoar it was known that another woman bad been murdered and a report also current that there was still another victim. This report proved true.

iThe two, victims, as in the former cases, were dissolute women of the poorer class. The motive of the mar-der was not robbery as shown by the facS that no attempt was made to despoil the bodies. Jhe firet mnrder occurred in a narrow court off Berner street at an early hour this morning beneath the windows of a foreigners' socialist club. A concert Was in progress and many members of the club were present, but no sound was heard from the Tictim. same process had been followed as in the other cases.

The woman bad been seized by the throat and her cries choked and the murderer with one sweeping cut had severed her throat from ear to ear. A clubman on entering the court stumbled over the body, which was lying only two yards from the street. A stream of warm blood was flowing from the body into the gutter. Tne murderer bad evidently been disturbed before be bad time to mutilate bis victim. Tne second murder was committed three-quarters of an hour later in Mitre square, five minutes' walk from the scene of the first crime.

Policemen patrol the square every ten minutes. The body of the unfortunate woman had been disemboweled, the throat cut and the nose severed. The heart and langs bad been thrown aside and the entrails were twisted into the gaping wound around the neck. The incisions show a rough dexterity. The work of disseoting was evidently done with the utmost haste.

Pending the report of the aoetors it is not known -whether or not a portion of the viscera was taken away. The doctors, after a nasty examination of the body, said tbey thought it must have taken about aire minutes to complete the work of tbe murderer, who then bad plenty of time to escape the police. Mitre square, the scene of the second murder, is a thoroughfare. Many peo-nle pass through the square early on Sunday morning on their way to prepare for market in tbe notorious Petticoat lane. The publicity of the place adds to the dariu got the crime.

-The police, who have been severely criticised in connection with the Whitechapel murders, are paralyzed by the latest' crimes. As soon as the news was received at police headquarters a mes-. senger was dispatched for Sir Charles Warren, chief commissioner of police, who was called out of bed and at onc visited tbe scene of the murders. The inhabitants of Whiteenapel are dismayed. The vigilance committees, which were formed after the first crimes were committed, bad relaxed their efforts to capture the murderer.

At several meetings held in Whitechapel to-night, it was resolved to resume the work of petroling the streets in the district in which the murders have occurred. Dr. BlaokwelV who was called to new the remains of the Berners Btreet victim, gave it as his opinion that tbe same man, evidently a maniac, had committed both murders. The Berners street vicitim bad evidently been dragged back by a handkerchief worn around the throat. The inquest will be held at 11 o'clock Monday inoruing.

Four doctors will be on the jury. The inquest on the Mitre square victim will probably be held on Tuesday. The Berners street victim was Elizabeth Stride, a native of Stockholm, who resided in a common lodging-house. The name of, the other victim is not known. In consequence of the refusal of Home Secretary to ofler a reward for tne arrest of tbe Whitechapel murderer the people of the East End on Saturday petitioned the queen berself to antborize the offering of a reward.

The Daily Telegraph, commenting on the Whitechapel murders, says "If the home secretary fails to wake op and do bis duty Lord Salisbury, will have to dismiss a minister who has not good sense enough to resign." THE IMPERIAL DIARY. Frederick's Correspondence With Queen Natalie. 'Bkriox, Sept. 30. The North German Gazette, in an article reel tin 2 that ljueen Natalie was expelled from Wiesbaden contrary to the promise of tbe emperor to protect her, publishes tbe text of tbe emperor's letter to Natalie.

Meanwhile remain assured that within my territory yon shall enjoy every protection eompatible with international obligations toward your husband and the Servian government." On July 5 the emperor wrote to Natalie as follows: "As a result of my inquiries I cannot support the opposition which yonr majesty considers yourself bound to display to the demands of Kins Milan for the return of the crown prince. The 'king purely avails himself of his rights as a sovereign and a father, whicli international taw does not permit me to oppose. 1, therefore, recommend you to place the crown prince at the king's Professor Gettokln Arreatod.

Rare Old Liquors. High Priced Bladelra and Brandy and Old Cherry Bonace. A dispatch in the New York Times from Lancaster, says: It is doubtful whether there is another town in this country that has an establishment keeping in stock Madeira wine at $25 a bottle and brandy beld at $50 a gallon, or one that has cherry bounce whioh is known to have been in the bottles over sixty years. Lancaster has such a store in the cent-ury-old Reigart wine shop on East King street. On the shelves of this old shop, now the property of the present postmaster of Lancaster, Major H.

A. Slay-maker, are long rows of dust covered bottles containing Madeira of tbe image of 1793. 1800 and succeeding vintages np to 1610. These wines were imported direct by the founder of the store, Adam Keigart, and his successors. The early vintages were obtained in exchange for Lanoaster county corn and other products.

When the 1793 Madeira was first sold here $3 a gallon was charged for it. Madeira was then the popular drink among the farmers and others. To-day would hardly boy a wineslassful of this rare beverage. There are on the shelves of this store a number of dozen of Madeira of the vintage of 1827, which Mr. Slay maker says is the finest Madeira in existence, the viutsge of that year never having been equaled.

Two or three years ago Sam Randall, W. U. Hensel, and B. J. McUrann of Lancaster took a soutbern trip.

At Atlanta they were royally entertained by Henry A. Grady of the Atlanta Constitution. On his return to Lancaster Mr. MoGranu ordered two cases of the famous and rare 1827 Madeira sent to Mr. Grady in recognition of the hospitality be had extended to the party.

At 25 a oottle tbere is not much of a demand for the 1793 Madeira. Out of the dusty rows of bottles eontaining it only three vaoant spaces are visible. Two of these were made vacant by an oil millionaire of Pittsburg, who took home with him two bottles of the preeions stuff'. The other space was made vacant by B. J.

McGrann, who purchased the bottle and cracked it in honor of Judge Thnrman, who was in Lancaster two years ago visiting' his The bottles containing this rare wine are of the last century pattern, when bottles were blown and shaped without the aid of molds. They are irregular in outline and very heavy.

TEXAS. EL PASO. The Horn on a Moving oa Bfexieo. St. Louis, Sept.

SO. A special from El Paso. says "Tbe move ment of the Mormons toward Mexioo is assuming snape ana large proportions: 'Recently dispatches have been pub lished to tbe effect that the Mexican government had granted a concession of 10.000,000 acres of land to the Mormons and that tbey bad purchased 7000 square miles of the Zum Indian lands in Mexico. Tbere is no foundation whatever for such statements. i-verv foot of land obtained bv the Mormons in Mexico eo far bas been by purchase from private owners and tbe government would no doubt utterly refuse to make them concession of land.

The Zum Indians live in New Mexico and not Old Mexioo. and cannot dis pose of a single acre of their reserva tion. Ihe facts are these: the Mormons have quietly bought from private owners bodies of agricultural lands in northern Chihuahua, principally in the valley of the Casas Grande river and that tbey are negotiating for more. beveral nourishing villages exist in that neighborhood already, the prin cipal one beiug called Porfino Diaz. These colonists are the precursors of greater bodies in the nture, and are very quiet and unobtrusive.

ALEXANDRIA. The Bosineaa of tha Compress. Alexandria. Sept. 30.

Special. The Alexandria compress has been doing business for this season for about twelve days, and in tbat time has re ceived 671 bales cotton, compressed and shipped 200 bales, leaving on band 471 bales. At the same date last year they had received only 404 bales, compressed and shipped 50 bales, and on hand 354 bales. This is quite a good showing for the considering that the crop is at least three weeks late ana planters are noiding tbe crop back acconnt of high prices of bagging. It certainly goes to prove the assertion of Superintendent T.
