Only two elements were missing—the half million dollars worth of jewelry and the thief who took them Mrs. Caruso and her sister-In-law and Mrs. Park Benjamin jr., dressed ag they were on the night of the rob- bery, were seated in the living room on the lower floor sowing. Then the} bell was set ringing tn the box up- stairs and the women juinped from thelr. chairs, Mrs, Benjamin going to| the telephone to send a warning to Chauffeur Fitzgerald that there were | intruders within the grounds. Everything that occurred there- after on Tuesday night, inclding the| parte taken by the servants, was pre- sented to the District Attorney, to the| Pinkerton detectives and the men from the Corrigan & Sherwood | Agency from New York. When the drama had been re- enacted, the detectives declared that there was no doubt in their minds that the actual robbery had occurred some time before Tuesday and that the carrying away of the ringing ox at 1080 o'clock on that night was merely a “stall” to throw In- vestigators off the track and con- vey th eimpression that the robbery was not an inside job. If that were the {dea of the thieves, the trick has failed to work, The investigators are more certain than ever that some inmate of the Caruso household, familiar with the comings and goings of Mrs. Caruso and Mrs. Benjamin and the movements of all the servants, stole the jowels and passed thhem on to a confederate.

This .Republican National Convention spent one day trying to agree on something which |the Senate has spent a year debat- ing—the treaty, or peace—and the prospect is that at least another day will be spent doing the same thing, This gives more time for the negotiations between leaders and more time for deals and transactions on second and third choices, Briefly, the situation as to candidates bas changed in this respect. Gen, Leonard Wood {is dangerously near the goal and his crafty man- ager, Frank Hitchcock, realizing that the key to the whole puzzle ts in New York, Massachusetts and Pennsyl- vania, is making inroads in the deie- gations from those States. The coun- ter move of the Lowden forces, and, indeed, the Old Guard, who don't want Wood nominated, is to hold Pennsylvania and New York and Massachusetts eolid for the first few ballots at least.
