65.000 GEMS LOOT OF 1ST AVE. THUS: _ HOLDUP PAANSHOP Leave Bag With $10,000 in Jewels on Counter in Their Haste to Flee. Four middle-aged men, each armed ‘with two revolvers, held up the fan- ager and two clerks of Istein Bros.’ pawnshop at No. 252 First Avenue at 8.30 o'clock this morning and escaped with diamonds and ‘watches valued at, approximately, $5,000. The loss may be much heavier when the missing goods are phecked up @nd inventoried. In their haste to get away the thugs left a bag containing $10,000 in jewels on the counter. The pawnshop is on the corner of Fast 15th Street, Alexander Mayer, the manager, opened up at 8 o'clock and the clerks, Abraham and Louis Schwartz, appeared a few minutes later, The big safe was opened and Mayer busied himself getting the books in order, while the clerks ar- ranged the display in the front win- dow. The four thugs entered with a rush, drawing their revolvers as they passed through the door. An ar- Tangement of screens in the window and just outside the door, usual in pawnshops to insure privacy to cus- tomers, was also a comparative in- surance of privacy to the thugs. In obedience to orders, Mayer and the Schwartzes elevated their hands. Thereupon two of the thieves pock- eted their revolvers and jumped over the counter. One of them produced ® rope and was about to bind Mayer when the leader of the expedition told him not to waste any time with the rope. While two of the thugs kept the pawnshop men covered the two be- hind the counter swept the contents of two trays in the big safe into a suit case which they had taken from a shelf. At this point a man opened the door, saw the thieves with pointed revolvers, yelled and fled down First Avenue. This forced the thieves to wind up their operations with only two trays of the safe stripped. They ran out of the store, entered an automobile standing at the curb just around the corner and disappeared to the west- ward in 15th Street _THE EVENING WORLD, THURSDAY, MAROH 23, 1922. — THIS IRISH SAILOR COULDN'T FIND ANY ‘CATHOLICS IN ROME “I'm Here Among Protestants, Broke and Hungry,” He Tells aya Father O'Hagen.
