Washington, T. Sept. S. "Yes," said Secretary Herbert yesterday, "it is true that I have given order) that work on vessels under eer.sti uction for the navy shall be expedited. The order embraces not only, the work on navy yard ships, but also the work on vessels being- built under contract.

Alt have Deer, urged to Increased tiiiiKence." Cotitimilnsr, the secretary said: "The thips building- in the navy yards have b-'-ren hiKing- for years, fror a long' time Use deiay was for wai.t of-armor, but armor is row being' furnished prorupuy. Tne Texas and tne Maine, the former of which has been put in cornmi.Sfc.ion, and the latter of which will be in a lew lays, reaily ought to have been in service months aso. Officials at the navy yards naturally desire to keep a regular iorce steadily employed, and the disposition is to take workmen from the ships that are building- and do repair work with them, putting them back when the repair work is comiieted. Not only have the Texas and Maine been dt'ayfd by tb's practice, br.t also the monitors, the Terror, the Monadnoek and the Pari tan.

Jack the Ripper has been caught and is now securely locked up in the English insane asylum at Broadmoor, just out of I.ondou. This most ex-t-Hordinaty rnurdcrc-r is a hopeless maniac. On his arrival in this eountrv re 1 cently Dr. Winslow told the fact to the Scotland erd. however, to enter-A'-sociated Press, and this morning- says tain the idea, and It was quite impossible tf-aW -s-M- i the iloctor, as a private citizen.

were committed. Pr. Winslow, however, refused to believe that the murders were, committed by one Of the lower clashes. lie gave as his opinion that the murderer was In ail probability a man ot jrood position and perhaps living in the west end of London. When the paroxysm wnrcu promptvu ami 10 rus leinui ueeos had passed he most likely returue to the bosom of his fami'y.

After the fifth nnd sixth mtirders, however, he changed his views. Tim exact similarity in the method of murder and the horrible evisceration of the body fahowed too much of a methodical nature ever to beloutr to a man who committed the deeds in a fit of furor. Considerable- anatomical knowledge was displayed by the murderer, which would seem to Indicate that his occupation was that of a butcher or a surgeon. Takintr all these things trto consideration the Insanity expert concluded that the perpetrator was a homicidal lunatic goaded on to his dreadful worn by a sone of duty. Religious mania was evidently closely allied with his nomiciuai instincts, because his efforts were solely directed against fallen women, whose extermination he probabiy considered was his mission.

Many homicidal lunatics -onstder murder to lie their duty. "Jack the Ripper" possibly imagined that he received his commands from God. Or. Forbes Winslow communicated his lieas to the anthorities at Scotland rd. and expressed his opinion that he would run down the murderer with the.

co-opers- tion of the police. He explained that tics can frequently be caught in their own trap by humoring- their ideas. If opposed, they bring a devilish cunntntt to bear, which effectually frustrates all efforts to thwart their designs. The expert proposed to insert an advertisement in a prominent position In all the papers, reading comewhat like this; "A gentleman who is strongly to the presence of fallen women In the streets of London would like to o-uptrate with some one a view to their suppression." Tiie doctor proposed to have a half dozen detectives at the place of appointment, and seize and rigidly examine every one that replied to the. advertisement tor the diabolical cunning: of a homicidal lui atic.

who conceives be has a mision, lenders his capture red-handed extreme-y problematical. Dr, Winslow ciaimed that a loan of this nature would be sure to lead the newspajters carefully and gloat over the resuit.i of his crime. The hacking and cutting of some of his victims showed that he was under the influence of religious frenzy, and every horrible detail he probably consideied redounded to his credit and proved that he was performing his mission- faithfully. About this time rumors grew into loud complaints against the liietficiency of the London police, and scores of citizens disguised themselves and patrolled ail night the streets of Whltecjiapel, hoping to catch the murderer. Among them as no less a personatre titan a director of the Bank of Fnglaml, who whs so possessed by a special theory of his own that be disguised himself as an ordinary day laborer and started exploring- the common lodging houses on the ea-r't side, clad in navvy boots, a fustian jacket with a r-d handkerchief around his seek and a pickaxe.

During the month of August, is, a man was seen whose description a then given corresponds with, the murderer now in an asylum, writing on the wall under an archway. The Inscription read: "Jack the Ripper will never commit another mur ler. Chi October 4 Dr. Winslow received a letter purporting to come from Jack the Ripper and expressing an insane alee over hideous work he was carijiug out. Thla letter was In the same handwriting the 'writing found under the archway Another letter was received by ha'doeur 011 tVtober 1.

Is 1 .01 i Mj'ra Day, when the incoming ma-yor gives precession, or, as it is called, the Lord Mayor's show. The day i3 pretty generally kept as a holiday, and thousands throng the streets to look at the entertainment which the new lord mayor has provided.

Whilo the throng was at Its thickest the. yells of the newsboys wre suddenly heard: "Another Whitecliapel murder: horrible mutilation etc. Tha murder had been fore-told in the letter. but no clue could be obtained aa to the writer. The police worked night and day, found theories, acted upon all sorts of but all without avail.

The thought of the fiend silently carving up his victim in the midst of a crowded neighborhood, reflecting with joy upon the righteousness of his work, when the hole city was engaged in feastlngs and processions of the day, caused almost a panic in the city. The mutilation of the corpse surpassed In brutality and presented a more sickening spectacle than any of the rest. The murder this time was committed In a room on the ground floor with a window in front by which a passer-by might have seen the mangled inuiy lying upon the bed. No more murdfrs occurring, the excitement gradually died away until on July 17, 1883, a woman named Alice McKenzle was found mutilated in the usual manner in a dark Whitechapel alley. The boa.

-hPn found showed that the fiend had been disturbed io .1 the policeman who discovered it blew bis whistle and every constable on duty in the neighborhood blocked up every opening, thus forming a cordon through which no one was allowed to pass. All contained in the cordon were examined and a house-to-house search conducted. It was all in vain. The murderer had disappeared as completely as though he ha vanished from the earth. Letters had been received by ihe police in the early part of the year warning them that the murderous Murk would be resumed in No clews, however, were obtainable from them, and the murder remained shroudcil in mystery, as -ue the others.

The Interval between tbe murder of November 9. 1SS5. and July 17, Or. Winslow accounted for by saying that the lunatic had undoubtedly had a lucid interval, during which he was quite un-cons-ious of the horrible crimes he bad previously committed. After each mur ler had been carried out are! the for blood appeased, the lunatic changed at once from a homicidal religious maniac into a quiet man with a perfect knowledge of wnat be was doing.

lor. Winslow says this Is very common among lunatics of tills description, and the fiendish Jack the iiiplc-r probably real the accounts of the murders iu the morning papers and was as much horrified as anybody. Tbe doctor still held firmly to his theory that the assassin was a well-to-do man suffering from religious mania. Many theories had been staited and met with more or less favor. The general opinion was that the murderer was a cattle butcher visiting the slums of Whit'Hrlianel nn committing ti murder every time; his ship came in.

llorg'hlon, Sept. S. Fire broke out yesterday afternoon in the shaft of toe Osceola copper mine. Tr.e lire is still b'jrriitia, and it is believed that from 4U to 50 miners are entombed, without any possible hope of recovery.

Five Poles, whose names are unknown, are also amour the missing. The fire started in shaft No.

Ail the 2iK miners made a rush tor the lifts, but the tire was too quick for them, raid all chance of escape by that way weie cut off by fire and smoke. liuae volumes of smoke are still issuing forth from the mouths of shafts N'os. 1.

It is learned that the piaee where the fire caught was the worst place that it could have 'furght in the whole none, and the only place in the mine where fire of any extent could have caught.

The shafr his been surrounded all day by thousands of i-eople, h-pmg that some or word world be irotten the men, but have now alt returned to their tomes, fearicc the worst.

All hope 1ms been gderi up by the oificlals of ever rescuing any of the men alive. The majority of the miners ho escaped dr-3 so by feeing through, a cross-cut, and in this way managed to reach another shaft, from which they were taken to the top. vyithin short time after they had reached the surface, smcUe began r-'rlni? from, all the shafts, and i e-ir oi the below was entirely cot oft.

The mouths of th? shafts have now been a'd batteopd up to stop all drafts. When the tire started Charles Weare, a drill boy, went to the bottom of the burning shar'i and told the miners of their da titter. They iid not think it was so bad, end some of them came up the ladders to the seventeenth level, where they ibouirhr they would have time to eat lunch. They were there only three minutes when the sm became intensely dense. M'rhaei ilarririKton took out some matches to relight the candies which had core out.

and the oxygen had been consumed and the candles Would not burn. Gropfner their wav in the dark they went up about 2o. feet more, when they lost hope, br.t one cf the miners, crawling- on and knees, reached the belt wire and signalled to lower the skip.

Dr.

Forbes Winslow stands at the head of Btlilsh medical specialists. He is the medical world what Fiison is in the realm of electricity, or Hemeshoft' among yachting experts. These positive and unqualihed statements from the foremost insanily specialist of Furope at last put an end to the mystery of the Whitechapel horrors. Dr. Forbes Winslow is now in New York city attending- the International Medico-Legal congress.

By special appointment he gave his entire evening; last Wednesday to a lepresentative of the World, and at his apartments in the Westminster hotel detailed the. history of his long and patient study of the murder mysteries. The distinguished specialist was called 'con to advise as to the manner of man whey was so cunningly outwitting the police day after day, and he at once determined that the Whitechapel butcheries were the work of a madmannot a wild-eyed maniac, but a monstor of shrewdness, caution and Inteoig-. pee. But' the murders were, as Pr.

Winslow clearly pointed out, the -aork of an insane mind. He analyzed the methods, the motives and the attending cfT-cumsfar ces, and bnaily presented to the tendon police a carefully and scien tifically constructed mental picture of the man they must search for. Intensely. l'rtrested in the lield of research, before the doctor gav his whole heart and soul to the study of the mystery, and as each fresh victim was discovered he strengthened and completed his theories as to the Olseaed mind which had perpetrated the butcheries. But the great specialist became more than a builder of scientific theories he found himself pursuing clews and searching for facts to prove 1.1s soieio.itic 'leuuciious.

He was at once a medical theorist and a practical de tcrctive. Day after day and night after night the Joe tor spent in the Whitechapel slums. Tiie detectives knew him. the lodeing- i house keepers welcomed him, and at last tne poor creatures ot tne streets came to know him. terror they rusiied to him with every scrap of informs tlon which might to bis mind be of value.

To him the frigtened women lexked for hope. In the presence of this great specialist they felt reassured, and they welcomed him to their dens and eagerly obeyed his commands and found for him the bits of information he wanted. It is not. therefore, surprising that it was Dr. Forbes Winslow and not the detectives of Scotland Yard who rea- eoned out an accurate scientific mental picture of the Whitechapel murderer and I then stamped beyond a doubt the actual lentiucation or tire monster nimseii.

To teeall the histof-5- c.f the famoo Ji the Ripper murders in the London slums it should be remembered thad there were in all ight victims. There is good reason to believe that the hand of the murderer was stayed by the revelations of Dr. Win-slow before he had finished his contemplated crusade. The first r-jirder was committed on April Be. when Emma Elizabeth Smith 45 years of age, was found dead with an iron stake thrust through her body.

This was near Osborn street, Whitechapel. No particular attention was attached to this murder except for the unspeakable mutilation committed after the victim's death. On Aug. 7, of the same year, Martha. Tabiam was murdered in George yard buildings.

Commercial street, Spitaliiblda. Her body was stabbed ard cut in places, the method of kiiling being the same rs in the first, murder. This butchery was followed in quick succession by the murder of. Mary Ann Nrchois, who was found in a court in Bucko Row. Whitechapel, v.uh her throat cut and her body partly itriated.

In all the succeeding- murders the throat of the victim was cut and the body mutilated in the san horrible manner. The next victim of the fiendish murderer il: oi 10 Miittn ri was Annie Chapman, who was Killed atel iia.K orptt on Sept. 8. Three weeks later E.iaabeth chapel. The throat was cut, but the body i not nttitnated.

tne si. yer navmg evidently been disturbed in bis horrible work. On the same night, in Miitre Square. Aldgate, Gatberine JEddowes was killed and mutilated. The next murder on the ghastly record was on Nov.

when Jane Kelly was found dead in Miller's court, Dorset street, with her throat cut and body hor-rlbiv mutilated. No m'ore murders were committed for seme months, and the community was hoping that the mnrtierei's hand had been stayed for good, when Lot o'kn was again convulsed by the slaughter and subsequent mutilation of Alice MctCenzie, in Castle alley, Whitechapel. The police were completely dazed, and despitj the precautious taken and traps laid, the murderer escaped them ail. After the teccid murder Dr. Forbes Winslow formed the theory that the two murders had been committed by an epileptic maniac.

He gtiil held to his theory unfil tbe murder, basing his conclusions moon the fact that in this disease the paroxysms only occur at Intervals, and that they leave the person subject to them Id possession of his faculties.
