KUANG HSI) DIED
FIVE DAYS AGO
DoWAGER EMPRESS STILL LIVES
BUT HER CONDITION is
SERIOUS.
RULER S LATER LIFE WAS PITiA
BILE AND HIS MIND WAS UN-
CERTAIN.

Pekin, Nov. 15.-The emperor died
November 10 at five o'clock p. m
He has been i'll for a long time and
during recent audiences with foreign
representatives was unable to either
sit upon the throne or even in an
erect position. 1t was evident for !
long time that he would be unable to
withstand the crisis which sooner or
later must develop IN the disease
from which he was suffering Recent
climatic extremes caused the develop
ment of fatal complications that re-
suited in his death.
At the moment OF the death of the
emperor the dowager empress own
death CHAMBER chair was waiting IN
the court yard. She, too, had been
in serious condition, and the word
that was brought to her earlier in
the day that the emperor was dying.
caused her to collapse This has pre-
vented her from assuming the rela-
-ionship of Grandmother to the sue
cessor to the throne, which. according
to the Chinese system, would enor-
mOusly augment her authority.
There is little indication of emotion
among the people over the events
which have been transpiring. The
emperor's death and the probable
death Of the dowager empress within
a very short time have had little eff
feet upon the Chinese who are pursu-
ing the even tenor of their way with
out signs Of mourning.
Kuang Hsu's later life was a pitia-
bic spectacle to his attendants. His
seebleness had rendered him a mere
puppet, and he had suffered long
from i'll health. which was combined
with fear and despair. Latterly he
showed marked signs Of mental dis
turbances. and even went so far last
August as to declare himself mad.

WAS IT BODY OF
, BELLE GUINNESS
QUESTION BECOMES INTEREST
ING IN LIGHT OF LAMPHERE
TRIAL EVIDENCE.

Laporte, Ind, Nov. 15.-The state
in the trial of Ray Lamphere for the
murder of Mrs. Belle Guinness and
her three children forged several
strong links in the chain to prove that
the adult female body taken from the
ruins Of the Guinness house was that
of the alleged murderess. Witnesses
testified to seeing on the fingers of
Mrs. Guinness during her life, two
rings, introduced in evidence and tes-
titled to as having been found on the
fingers of the dead woman. DR.. Nor.
ton, Mrs. Guinness dentist, furnished
probably the strongest and most con
vincing proof yet introduced of the
identity of the body by fully identify
ing diagrams of Mrs. Gunne SIS mouth,
describing the dental work which he
did for her, and the fully and com.
p-etely identifying of the gold crowns
and false teeth, found in the ruins,
as being those which he had made for
Mrs. Guinness.
The defense scored one point, when
DR., Meyer, a state witness, gave it
as his opinion that death was due pos
sibly to strychnine poisoning. The
Indictment against Lamphere is for
first degree murder "by arson" and
so the defense is elated.
