The whis tle is connected with the air reservoir, and when the conductor desires to, sig nal the eagineer he tiraply piejses-a but ton, which is connected by the air pipes with the whistle, and the signal is in stantly given. The button and whittle are very sensitive, so to speak, and the slightest touch of the button will dis charge the air into the whistle, instantly giving the desired signal. FOBEIGN NEWS.

Report! show that the past week has witnessed" the consummation f a Urge nexnbr of great enterprises in railroad and industrial circles throughout the South. The faith of Northern- capital ists in Southern railroad securities is shown in the placing of $10,000,000 of bend of the Georg'a Central Railroad through Diexel, Morgan & Co , and the negotiations, now reported as closed, for the purchase at $ 1,000,000 of the Ken tucky Midland Road.

LONDON'S MYSTERY. MORE MURDERS C02XXITTEI. The police Paralysed and the People Dismayed. Losdox, EogUnd. Special. Sun day morning the whole city was again startled by the news that moie murders were added to the list of mysterious crimes that have recently been commit ted in WhilechspaL At an early hour it was known that another woman was murdered, and the report was also cur rent that there was still another victim. This report proved true. TU- two lz tims as in the former cava, were disso lute women of the poorer class. That the motive of the murdered was not rob lery is shown by the fact that no , at tempt was made t despoil the bodies. THE WO VICTIMS. " The first murder occurred in the nar row court oi Earners street, at an early hour beneath the windows of the foreigners socialistic club. A conceit was in progress, and many mem bers ol tbe c'.ub were present, but no sound was heard from the victim. The sarne process was followed as in theoher cases. The woman had been seized by the throat, her cries choked, and the mur-1 derer, w ith one sweeping cut, had sev ered her throat from ear to ear. A club man, on entering the court, stumbled over the body, which was lying only two yards from the 6treet A stream of warm blood was flowing from the1 body into the gutter. The murderer bad evidently been disturbed before he had time to mutilate his victim. Jhe second murder was committed three-quarters of an hour later in Mitre sqiiare, five minutes walk from tho scene of the first crime. Policemen patrol tho square every ten minutes. The body of the unfortunate woman had been disem bowelled, her throat, cut acd her nose severed. The heart and lunjjs had been t hi own aside, acd the entrails twisted into the gaping wound around her neck. The incisions show rough "dexterity. The work of dissection was done with the utmost haste. WnAT THE DOCTORS PAY. Pending-the report of the doctors it is not known whether or not a portion of the vicerajsjw as taken away. The doctors after hasty exannnition of .the body, said they thought it mmt havo taken five minutes to complete the work of the mur derer.' who then had plenty of time to escape the patrol. THE SCENE OF THE MURDER. . Mitre square, the scene of tbe second muraer, is a uiorougntare. aiany peo ple pass through the square early Sunday morning on their way to, prepare for market in the notoiious Petticoat Jne. The publicity of the place 'adds to tte daringnew of the crime. The police, who have been severely criticised in con nection with the Wnltechapel murdeia, are paraljzed by these latest crimes. As soon lis the news Was received at the police headquarters, a messenger was dispatched for Sir Charles Warren, chief commissioner of police. He was called out of bed and at once visited the scene of the murders. THE FEOrLE DISMAYED. Inhabitants of Whitecbapel are dis mayed. The vigilance committees which were formed after the first crimes were committed, lelaxed their efforts to capture the murderer. At several meetings held at Whitecbapel it was resolved to resume the work of patrolling 6treats in the district in which the murders oc curred. The Barners street victim was Eliza beth Stride, a native of Stockholm, who residetl in a common lodging house. The name of the other victim is not yet known.
