Washington. Oct. Now that a aues-
tion has arisen as TO the best method OF
providing an efficient system of Transport

interest to note what the view Of the

this matter The attention OF the depart

an early stage to the defects Of the trans
port system as revealed I'm the departure
from Tampa Of the Shafter expedition and

She WAS TIRED OF LIFE
Murdered Her Mother That She
Might Not Fret.
AND THEN KILLED HERSELF
Frightful Double Crime OF q Young
Woman at Pittsburg-wanted to
Die Was the Only Explanation
OF the Terrible Deed.

Pittsburg. Oct. 2.-Bertha Beilsteir
Killed her mother to-day and later pu,
four bullets into her own body. from
the effects of which she cannot recover
The only explanation the girl has given
for the terrible deed were these words:
II was tired OF life. 1t held no pleas
ure for me. / wanted to die and did
not want my mother to live and fire.,
over my death. For that reason I
killed her."
The crime, which was committed
some time in the early morning, was
not discovered until late in the day.
when son of the murdered woman
came to the house and found the MUIR
dered woman's body in her room cold
IN death. The room was covered with
blood and there was every indication
that death had resulted some hours be-
fore. In an adjoining room was found
the body OF the murderess lying i'm a
pool of blood. and I'm her right hand was
clutched a revolver.
Mrs. Beilstein had been shot three
times. One shot had entered at the
right side of the nose and taken a
downward course through the neck and
had cut the seventh cervicle vertebrae
Another shot had entered the right
breast and the third had passed through
the right groin. A bullet had torn it's
way through the young woman's right
nipple and had passed out at the top Of
the head. From both the entrance and
the exit OF the wound the brains were
oozing. Another bullet had entered
her left breast near the heart and she
had also shot herself twice in the stom-
ach. The physicians said death was
a question of only a short time.
To one Of her brothers during a pe-
riod OF consciousness the girl told OF
the shooting of her mother She said
she went into the room with the reyoI-
yer in her hand. She had decided 10

and l think their methods would be per-
| fectly adaptable 90 ourselves IL their reg

the department I would suggest asking
for them at once through our naval at

I'm looking up Information covering the
subject OF the above cablegram I am not
| able TO ind in the Office of the naval in
telligence any publication relating to the
regulations covering the combined action
OF the two services. In consequence OF this
j would suggest that a cabiegram be at
once sent TO the naval attache at London
to forward these regulations to the de-
partment " possible. From The Queens
Regulations and Admiralty Instructions
Tor the Government of Her Majesty's Ma
val Service. 1888 IL Is evident that the
transport service IL in charge of the ma
val branch Of their government On page
4s under chapter 20. article 1.253. II states
as follows: Whenever any OF her ma
testys land force shall be embarked as
passengers in any OF her majesty's ships.
the officers and soldiers. from the time OF
ambarkation shall strictly observe the laws
and regulations established for the gov
ernment and discipline of her majesty's
navy, and for these purposes shall be
under the command OF the commanding

Tor naval officer present: and all military

command for the time being OF any Of
the troops embarked. through whom or
ders to the troops (given by the officer
of the watch) are required to pass. shall

This shows conclusively. think. that
the transport service is entirely in the
hands of the naval establishment This
article IL followed by several others, Civ
ing detailed instructions in advance OF re-
ceiving the regulations covering the COM
bined action of the two forces. IL might
be good plan. after due consultation and
arrangement with the war department. to
make beginning by following the En-
glish regulations so far as they apply to
transport service. They could. in all prob
ability. be made easily adaptable to our
service; and also for the reason. as Ad-
miral Sampson states. that the English |
experience has been far longer than that |
OF any other power. Their regulations COW |
ering these matters are. OF course. the re- |
suit of experience and Of many active |
operations covering a long period of years. |
and for that reason alone would. think, |

Washington. Oct. "A brief mes
sage was received at the state depart
ment to-day from Minister Conger. at
Pekin, concerning the situation. He
says nothing concerning the reported
death OF the emperor, but states that
feeling of anxiety exists. adding thar
he does not consider the situation es-
pecially critical at present. The state
department do not discredit the re-
ports OF the emperor's death and some
do not hesitate to express their ac-
ceptance OF the report of his assas-
sination.
The Chinese minister. however. dis
credits the entire report of a tragedy.
Il do not believe that the emperor
has been assassinated." he said to an

have received no confirmation OF the
report and cannot accept the state
ments sent out as true"
do you believe the emperor 10 be
dead?" he was asked.
II hope he is not" was the reply.
Yet l do not know. II may be that
all the reports have grown out OF some
illness of his majesty. But sick men

Men die natural deaths In China as

He then repeated the assurance that
he had received no information what
ever and said he would hope for reas-
suring news until he was personally
