How his sensational attacks later were to benefit society as de scribed in the following article, the second of a series on Sea land Yard. By ARTHUR F. DEGREVE (United Press Staff Correspondent? LONDON, May 20. (U.®)—Scotland Yard followed a trail of blood to fame. In 1888 a maniacal slayer who clashed his victims to death had terrorized the slums of London. Ie sent a letter to police with bloody fingerprints boldly smeared hereon and brazenly informed them when his next crime would be committed. The public was panicky. Women and children lived behind closed doors. “Jack the Ripper,” as the fiend signed his letter, was on every ton gue. The press bitterly criticized for its failure to capture the man. FORCE AUGMENTED Using this as an example that crime was increasing, police o cials demanded and received adi tional men to augment the detective force. This proved to be the viral spark needed to raise the from an ordinary group of pii clothes men to an agency which he grown to be feared by the worst criminals in the world. A series of sensational murders which were promptly solved “sold” Scotland Yard to Breat Britain The detective story, the popularity of which has so increased in recent years, has made a super-Sheri Holmes out of a plain, business-like man who spends as much on luck as science to bring criminals to jus tice, according to officials. Lieut. Andrew Oliphant who died after serving two scores on the force, in commenting on this phase of the situation said: NO SHERLOCK HOLMES .No detectives possess uneaty powers such as Sherlock Holmes. And, another shock to thriller readers is contained in the state ments of other police heads that de tectives rarely use disguises but dress in such a way as not to attract tension. All are excellent mat men but do not carry guns. The chief value of the Scotland Yard agent is his keenly developed powers of analysis and obsein which, aided by every modern vention of science, gives him ‘advantage in coping with the mod ern criminal, authorities say. Sher lock Holmes, they say, woul search in bush bins’ for discarded cans of lobster but Scoland Yard did and convicted a gang of as saulters. Also, the famous Doyle detective probably would await a call from the mysterious woman in red, but Scotland Yard solved a robbery of a Catholic church by photographin: a foot print on a window ledge arc arrested the thief a few days later, although these officials point out, there are thousands of criminals i England who wear shoes. Chief Constable Frederick Wes ley who retired recently was on as the world’s cleverest detective. He was offered a position to reo ganize the Chicago police docu ment but declined. His tenacity shrewd deductions led to the ar t of Peter the Painter,” a changer anarchist, in 1910. TRACE portLe It is doubted here that Sir Holmes would have followed some steps as a Scotland Yard 1 assigned to investigating a mw of a woman, committed on c docks. The face and head had been badly beaten. The officer was co vinced a bottle was used and sat thrown into the water. A force of divers was employed and fragments of broken class brought to the surface. The mnit of the bottle was traced to a pub house where the possible purchase name was revealed. A few: later the man was hanged on the gallows. One murderer was traced by a laundry ticket, another by a picture and one by an insurance policy Scotland Yard doesn't shout out knows there is no such thing as “perfect crime.” They always i i for the minor details which slaver in anxiety to cover his or has overlooked. Some crimes still be unsolved but Scotland never sleeps and never forgets. Tomorrow: The third and last of this series of articles on Scot land Yard tells of a famous case solved by painstaking care and patience. K. Cc.
