“VAMPIRE OF STRASSBURG”
GIRL FOULLY MURDERED. Another murder of a young Strasburg woman recently has led the police to believe that the “Vampire of Strasburg” has been at work again. The victim was Mlle. Eugenio Hubert, aged 26. As in the case of tho killing of Mlle. Meyer, the young typist, three months ago, Mlle. Hubert was found strangled with her own clothing. There are other details similar to those surrounding the death of Mlle. Meyer which compel the police again to take up the theory that a fiend of that type of the Dusseldorf murderer is still nt large. Witness told the police that they saw Mlle. Hubert in a cafe with a man whose description fits that of a man they have been looking for iu connection with the death of Mlle. Meyer. After the murder of Mlle. Meyer the police arrested an ex-convict, but later he was released. The “Vampire,” during the police activity in that murder, sent anonymous letters to the authorities threatening to murder another girl and M. Adriene, and the examining magistrate in charge of the case.
