MURDERS IN JAMAICA.
THE WHITECHAPEL CRIMES REPEATED.
London, February 9. Information has been received from the colony of Jamaica that three murders have been committed at Spanishtown, one of the principal towns in the island. In each instance the victims were mutilated in the same manner as the unfortunate women at Whitechapel, and in one case a card bearing the name of "Jack the Ripper" was pinned to the clothes of the victim. No cause has been assigned for the foul deeds.
