. THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: DARING DIAMOND DEALINC, How an Expert American Crook Made a Big Haul of Jewels. TREACHEROUS TABLE'S TALE. Pic-Shaped Piccemeal — An Unique Furniture Article—One of the Most Clever Thefts of the Age and Loxpon, Jan. 22.—[Correspondence San Francisco Chronicle ] =The latter part of last. May witnessed the arrival of an American gentleman at a well known private hotel in London,one of the houses which appeal only to the patronage of those who are not compelled to count the cost of their accommodations. He se- cured a bedroom and sitting-room on the thivd floor. He wn old man and his health so precarious that he spent most of his time indoors, leaving the house only on the warm, clear days which are so infrequent during the early part of May in London. After he I been there afew days the lady who had occupied the suit of rooms immediately beneath his, left for the continent, and thejAmeri- can engaged these for a friend of his then on the way to London. The friend ar. rived and two highly respectanle Amer can gentlemen were now installed one over the other, The first arrival—say Mr. A.—left a considerablesum of money in English bank notes in the care of the manager of the hotel. In the course of some casual conversation with the mana- ger he subsequently gave the latter to un- derstand that he was a Chicago railway man of great wealth. The manager had ev icve him, for Mr. A., 50 trying to obtain exessive credit at the hotel, or sh drafts on Chicago, had quantity of ready money in the safe and paid his bills each week without even drawing on this fund. In due course the m rlearned that Mr. A’s danghter was about to be married and Mr. A, consulted him as to where he should goto _buy her a suffi- ci«'nllY valuable set of diamonds to be worn by a rich man’s daughter who was marrying another rich man. THE MANAGER'S COUGH. The manager, with his fat commission in view, arranged to go with Mr. A. to one of the largest jewelers in Bond street, and assist him in selecting the stones. He was himself, he said, a connoisseur, and Mr. A. admitted that he knew very little about diamonds and that his eyesigzht was impaired. As luck would have it, Mr. A.'s cough grew worse daily, and the time apvroached when he wanted to dis- vatch the stones to Chicago without his having been able to go to Bond street. The manager ventured deferentially to remind him of this, and Mr. A, said that he had about made up his mind to let his busimess correspondent in New York buy the stones at Tiflany's, even if they werc a little more expensive than they” would be in London. "The manager saw that little commission of his receding toward the convergence of the lines ot perspec- tive, and proposed to Mr, A. that the man should send round some stones for him to look at. Mr. At ex- pressed a doubt as to whether the man would be «lisyosml to send round a large assortment of really fine goods. The manager said there would be no trouble about that, and he himself went round to see the jeweler, made an ar- ut about the percentage, which sfactory to both parties; and the jeweler promised not only to d around the best sets he had, but likewise to get a larger assortment on approval from the diamond brokers according to their usual practice and submit those also. It should be noted here that Mr. A. had told the manager that he did not care so much for enormously large stones as for stones of great brilliancy, real old Bra- zilian and Indian diamonds. His inten- tion was to let his daughter have them set in such forms as she might herself prefer, unless, indeed, the jeweler should happen to have something very striking 1 the way of hair ornaments, bracelets or necklaces, already set. THE LEATHER DAY, The man of Bond street was a good, ald-fashioned, conservative West-end tradesman, and when he saw what an enormous sum the assortment of jewels which were going to the hotel aggre- gated, instead of sending a man round with them, he went himself accompanied by a porter, who carried the leather bag containing the stones, and who was more asa matter of habit than beeau any spe precaution med necessary, armed with one of those fearful and wonderful English revolvers, which are about as convenient to carry 8s an eight ton gun, and take about as long to cock and fire. It was, indeed, more because the jeweler wanted to conduct the m-%u- tiation in person and use his uw"lim - ment as to how stifta price he could sist upon than because he had any mis- givings about the good faith of the pur- chaser that he went to the hotel humself. Arriving there the manager accom- panied him and his porter to Mr, A’ room.=Mr. A. was reclining on a sofa be- fore the fire, The jeweler unlocked the bag which was chained around the por- tor's waist, and the manager removed a number of booksand papers from a table which stood by the sofa. On the tabie the jeweler arranged a tempting display of set and unset stones, worth in the ag- gregate, at his prices, some £18,000, of which he hoped to be able to sell about one-fourth, judging from the way in which the manager had spoken of his customer. Now, what was the position of affairs? Around the table were the jeweler him- self, bis armed porter, and the manager of the hotel, a man of unimpeachably in- tegfity. Aside from the presumption that Mr. A.was a most highly respectable ndividual, which in this case seemed to amount to a moral certainty, he was a weak man, attenuated by long illness, e T 0 W The odds were, in reality, far more than three to one; and a pull at the bell would have made them more than that, The Jeweler pointed to the various sets and Stones, stating their weight, character and price: and, n_the instance of one superb necklace, telling Mr. A, a curious history of the great robleman who had been lrucmn.?' obliged to dispose of 1t among his family jewels. Mr. A, )i tened with great interest. and then said! It must be a nervous sort of business handling these things. I should be afraid that the devil would lly away with them, I think!" The jeweler smilingly assured him that he did not worry very much about that, avany rate. THE BEDROOM DEVIL, Mr. A. then excused himself while he went into his bedroom a moment, re- marking that he expeoted a friend of his who was in the hotel to come up there in a moment, and wanted his advice n making the selection, After the door closed behind him, the Jeweler smiled at the jmanager and the manager at the jeweler. The jeweler thought of his prolits and the manager of his commission. If the stones were safe before, consider what they were now, with only the jeweler, the man- ager and the porter in_ the room, and the stones in plain view of the table. While those doors remained closed and no oue 2dse entered the room, the jewels, you would say, wore assafe as if the) im.l oeen in the jeweler's iron-walled strong room in Bond street. A moment later there was a little noise, like the sharp closing of the lid of a box, and to all ‘appearances the devil had | to New York, entered the employ of a flown away with the stones. It took the three men in the room a moment to real: ize what had happened, and at the e of that moment the commissional the door of the hotel saw Mr. A friend, who ocoupied t walk out of the men earryir mto a hav the street at below, ul gentle- r on his and drive ra the cab drove oft | endous shouting or employe the corridor on the third story, w t the jeweler, the porte 1d the man- ager rushing out of Mr. A as if they had seen THE STONES RECOVERED. Before many hours the jeweler was closeted with one of the contidential in- iy agents, who were described in the last letter us “crooks’ agents, 1 a few or he recovered the stones by pay- 000. 1f he had gone to ad of the broker he vould probubly have never succceded in bring- ing the “artists to justice and would cer- tamly have lost the stones altogether. The police h never heard anything about the operation the manager had ex- cellent reasons for not advertising his own blunder in having been hoodwinked, and as the jeweler had compounded a felony, he certainly wanted to keep his mouth shut. I'he Americans were, it need hardly be said, first class artists, They had perhaps in all invested €150 in the job, although when their trunks came to be examined they were found to contain an amazing niimber of all newspapers, which, with ct in the world'for the' per ardly be regard 5 The English banknotes locked in the safe, with the exception of the one at the top of the roll, were like the old Bank of Elegance notes; they were some of a quantity of advertisement having the gener yperance ot bank- notes which a ti rical manager in Liverpool was indu: t enough to dis- tribute through the streets of that city not long ago, and which were the police us soon as they were their attention, but a “good many which found their way to London in the meantime. ‘Uhe manager had, of course, not scrutinized the notes, as he merely saw Mr. A. put them into an envelope and write his name on it. A CURIOUS TABLE. ‘L'his is a story from the outside. Now let us look at it from the inside. A few days before the robbery Mr. A's friend had bought for him a curious antique table, which Mr. A. intended to take to America with them, and which, for the time being, he had 1n s sitting-room, coyered with a cloth to preventats being scratched. 1t was on this table that the diamonds had been laid, and, as a matter of fact, this table was the devil that flew away with them. It had been made, or rather remade, from a curious piece of old fur- niture by a manufacturer of stage con- jurors’ ‘appliances in Paris. t was a small, round-topped table, and from the top it sloped in and then spread out again toward the floor, something like the trunk of a tree or an hour-glass with- out its waist being pinched in very mimly. The top of the table was mlaid, the pattern consisting of a number of pie-shaped pieces and radiating from an cnameled medall- ion in the middle. From the top to the floor the table was hollow, when the flat piece at the bottom of it was unscrewed and a lead weight which made it as heavy as a solid table was removed. Through this hollow there ran a stout piece of heavy fish-line, fastened to the under side of the medallion in the top of the table. Betore the jeweler’s visit this medallion had been replaced by & wooden plug, in which was set a little iron ring. On the under side of the cloth a piece of stout dogskin was securely glued and the ring sewn to this. When the cord was sharply jerked the top of the table collapsed to- ward the middle, THE PIE-SHAPED PIE being hinged at the outside, and ar- ranged so that their points would dropin when the cord pulled down the plug. Therefore, when the cord was pulled the cloth would be drawn down into the_hol- low part of the table wrappidg in itself whatever had been lying on it when the cord was pulled. 4 ‘The two crooks had quietly cut a hole through the tloor of Mr. A ting-room and the ceiling of the room below as soon as the twositting-rooms had been cleaned up b{y the hotel servants that morning. In Mr. A’s room tne hole was of course concealed by the table, but the room be- low had to be kent locked and unentered during the morning. This the partner had easily arranged by saying that he was writing lette nd did not wish to be interrupted. When- ever A, went into his bedroom from the sitting-room he went out of the bedroom to the corridor and down stairs to his partner’s room, His partner was in readiness, and when he knew it was time to. act he stood on a chnir under the hole and held his overcoat ready to catch the table- cloth and the stones, Mr. A.stood with the cord 1n his left hand an open knife in his right. He jerked the cord. His part- ner’s ulster received what it was waiting for and he quickly cut the cord close up to the cloth. 'he ulster was hastily doubled over its contents, and with it on the partner's arm they walkea quickly down the stairs and were in the hansom before the people up stairg realized that the stones were gone; and even when they saw that the top of the table seecmed to have fal- len in it took them a mowment to discover that it was not in that room that they must look for the vanished diamonds. The two artists must have had fully five minutes start, and thrée minutes was all they needed to be lost. —————— For an Irritated Th Cold, “*Iirowns Bronchial Troches” are of- fered with the fullest confidence in their efficacy, 25 cts & box. -— REUNION OF BROTHERS. Singular Occurrence in the Streets of the City of Mexico, Two Republics: On the corner of Gante and "San Francisco streets there occurred an incident yesterday morning which shows how small this world really is in these days of ilroads and steam- ship transportation. Kuarl and Julius Kretzmar, twin broters, first saw the light of day fifty-two years ago in what was then a small village _‘usl outside ot the limits of Berlin, but which has since been incorporated in the great eity. They grew up together into manhood, served together in the same regiment as one- year volunteers, unaer a sion of the compulsory military service of Germany by which youn;i men who reach the age when they become eligible as sol- diers may reduce their term of army life to one year by feeding and clothing themselves. Upon leaving the army they together entered the establishment of their father, a wholesale grocer When they were twenty-three years old the father met with financial reverses which reduced his fortune to such an extent that only a small pittance remained, scarcely enough to decently maintan the family, composed of ten children, of whom the twins were the eldest. When this state of affairs became apparent the two brothers resolved to strike out for themselves. Karl accepted a humble position offered him by a Ham- burg merchant in a branch house of the firm located 1 Calcutta, while Julius entered the employ of a cloth manufae- turing establisthment in one of the in- terior towns of Germany. Karl kept up regular corresxondenge with his brother forl’eun.but inally tiring of his position be left it and for “years battled against adversity which he ‘was too proud to make known, 50 ho ceased writing en- tirely from that time. He finally drifted , Cough or and his | | the United S coffee-house, and - came to Mexico three weeks ago to look into the coffee-raising inaustry of the republic for his firm, of which fie has become a member. Julius in the meanwhile had been sent out as a wool-buyer by the fo in which he had found and through the agent of rics woolen goods importing house had been made are of the advantages offered in States for the establishment of woolen mills, The stories he he: letermined him to remove to Ameri and as soon as he had a_little_sum laid by he took ship from New York, and traveled from thenee to the woolen man- ufacturing center in Rhode Island,where he found a position, saved his money,and is now the proprictor of one of the largest mills in the@state. He came to Mexico some days ago to arrange with a firm in Chihuahna for a woo) supply,and extended his visit to this ciy to_sce the sights, Whilo walkingin opposite dircc. tions on San Francisco street the broth- ers eame face to face, and, notwithstand- ing th t that twenty-nine years had passed since their I meeting, they recognized each other instantly, whether through an unexplainable instinet, or whether g to the fact that they re- sembl h othe closely in figure and fi i d to distinguish one from the other, itis hard to say, 1t 1s & Ourious Fact That the body is now more susceptible to benefit from ‘medicine than at any other season. Hence the importance of taking Hood's Sarsaparilia now, when it will do you the most good. 1t is really wonder- ful for purifying and enriching the blood, creating an appetite and giving tone to whole system. Be sure to get Hood's Sarsaparilla, which is peculiar to itself. — - REAL ESTAT Transfers Filed May 10, 1887, S Morris L Jovett et al, 1 Grand View, qc....

There is a sink hole on the line of the Carthage & Adiron- dack raiiroad into which has been dumped ten acres of timber and innum- erable car loads of stone, the effect of which has not been apparent, the hole being 48 bad as when first discovered, ‘The sink hole is 175 feet long, situated between Harrisville and Jayville, and where the track runs between two chains of hills, making the chang- ing of the road be 1mpossible. The C. & A. railroad peovle have long had trouble with it, and for some time ast have been endeavoring to fill up the ole. It appeared to be perfectly safe last Wednesday, and three cars loaded with gravel were pushed over the hole and unloaded, when they sank swiftly in eighteen feet of water, one of the men on them narrowly escaping drowning. About 300 car loads of gravel and stone together with a vast amount of rubbish, has been deposited in the hole.

ANOTHER SUDDEN DEATH. Hardly a week passes without the men tion by the newspapers of sudden deaths, and of late the alarming frequency of the statement that death was caused Dy rheu- matism or neuralgia of the heart’ cannot fail to have been noticed.
