Warships Thunder Applause at Close of Ceremonies and ¢ Is Great Enthusiasm b RLEANS, Dec. 20 *| NEW YORK, Dec. 20.—Ths White- chapel atrocities of “Jack the Ripper” and the murder of “Old Shakespeare” by the Arab, Ben Ali, in this city, were | recalled by the discovery to-day of the ¢ mutilated body of a woman in a sail- ors’ resort of the lowest type in Jnmes\ slip, near the river. The woman, Sarah | Martin, a. notorious. character of the “Cherry Hill” section, went to the place last night accompanied by a man, who registered the pair as Carl Nelson and | wife. The man left the hotel this after- ! noon and an hour later the body of his companion was found. The woman's throat had been cut and the body was otherwise frightfully mutilated. She| evidently had been killed while asleep, | as the condition of the room gave no indication of a struggle. Two bundles which the man had car- ried into the hotel were found in the | room. One contained two shirts, which bore blood marks, one as if a bloody knife had been wiped on it, and the! other bundle cantained an old pair of | | men’s shoes. On the wrapper was written the name “B. Bleno,” and near by were two purchase checks of a| Bridgeport, Conn., firm, showing that‘ a pair of shoes and a sweater had been bought on Saturday. | )\ OPEN EVENINGCS. Fine Gifts at Small Outlay.
