WEALTHY YOUNG WOMAN.
MYSTERY DEATH AT SYDNEY. (Received 11 a.m.) SYDNEY, this day. Mystery surrounds the death by drowning of a wealthy young woman, Miss Constance Mcßae, whose body, clad in expensive garments, was discovered yesterday on a beach in Watson Bay, near the Sydney Heads. The police have established the fact that Miss Mcßae, who was 27 years old, had just returned from a trip to Japan and had disappeared from the British steamer Tanda, which left Sydney late on Friday evening in continuation of the voyage to Melbourne, where Miss Mcßae resided. A later message states that police formed the opinion that Miss Mcßae accidentally fell overboard when a heavy wave caused the Tanda to roll as it was passing through Sydney Heads at midnight on Friday. A post-inortem examination showed that death was due to drowning.
