NOT REIMBURSED Firm From Whom King Stole Jewelry Has Had No Offer to Make Good Their Losses. That any wrong impression regard- ifig his firm having béen reimbursed, or having received a guarrantee of be- Ing reimbursed, for losses it has sus- tained through thefts of diamonds and other valuables, Henry A. McEwen of McEwene and Chapin said Tuesday that no reimbursement has been made to the firm and no guarantee of any has been received. The firm’s net losses, as near as can be ascertained, are in excess of $500. Some of the valuabies that have dis- appeared have never heen recovered. The firm has not been compensated, as many have come to believe, even in the amount of the heavy expense it was put to in recovering rings and oher valuable that were placed in pawn shops by Clarence A. King and Albert Talnose, the firm being called upon to redeem its property by paying the sums that were allowed on them when pawned. Mr. McEwene says his firm never received an offer of compensation, the nearest approach to such a proposition being a suggestion in behalf of King that if the firm would seek to have him piaced on probation, such net loss- es as he had caused the firm would be made good. This suggestion Mr. Mec- Ewen says was made at Willimantic before the court proceedings Monday morning. The firm stands today without ledge of compensation for the losses it has suffered and it is not even in possession of information that might help reduce these losses.
