WITH CHLOROFORM AND GAS
Handsome YOuRg Woman Found
Dead in n ROOm of the JeheF-
son Hotel, st. Louis.

st. Louis, Dec. 5.-A well-dressed,
handsome young woman, registered I'M
der the name of Jessie tombstone, Oma-
ha, Neb, was found dead in her room
on the tenth floor of the Jefferson
hotel, with the gas turned on and an
almost drained bottle Of chloroform on
O chair near her. That she had at
tempted suicide at least once before, is
indicated by letter found among her
effects. 1t was torn and unsigned, writ
tel on the hotels stationary, and read:
Miss Jessie Fairchild st. Joseph,
Mo:
My Dear Jessie--say, grille, Just a
word of farewell. It's a sure thing
this time"
This, dated December 8, is thought
by the police to have been written just
before the woman turned on the gas.
Medical books containing her name,
but with the address scratched out, and
letters found, cause the police to be-
live that Miss tombstone was a trained
nurse.
She appears to have been about "a
years old, was a handsome woman Of
dark complexion, dark hair and gray
eyes. She was five feet seven inches
tall and slender. Her hands were white
and soft.

Washington, Dec. 5.-The attention
Of Commissioner Richards Of the gem

swln6led out Of large sums OF money.
1t was explained that while the mat

terminate the Jews and to destroy the

less accusations against the troops OF
their participation in massacres and pill
