Rare Jewels of New York Summer Visitors at Resort Are Strangely Missing. The theft of jewels worth $277,000 fs acknowledged by members of the millionaire cottage colony at Narra gansett Pier, R. L. The gang of expert burglars that looted profitably in 1911 is believed to be again at work. The loss of Mrs. John H. Hanan, on Friday, is admitted to be fully $150, 000. Mrs. Charles C. Rumsey, daughter of the late B. H. Harriman, lost two pearl necklaces worth $60,000 and $40,000, other jewels worth $25,000, and an ancient Greek coin said to be very valuable. | The best detective genius available | is matching crooks who took the $277,000 worth of | gems almost under the nose of the summer colony. Rival agencies with in- ternational reputations as thief getters have been engaged by Mrs. Rumsey and Mrs. Hanan. Every pier on Narra gansett Bay is being watched in the! belief that the thieves, operating as gentlemen, are sauntering about the fashionable hotels looking for an op- portunity to leave town without excit- ing suspicion. Thus far not a tangible clue has been found. Mrs. Hanan's jewels were stolen from her room during an absence of not more than twenty minutes of a maid. The gems lost by Mrs. Rumsey were removed from her sleeping room while she was out. Reports that the Hanans had been | robbed were denied until Wednesday, | when Mrs. Hanan told of their loss. Mr. Hanan is seriously ill and has been kept In ignorance of the robbery. An unwillingness to disturb him in- | fluenced his wife to withhold the facts. | The articles taken included a dia- mond necklace, a pearl necklace, two diamond encrusted watches, a set of star sapphires surrounded by dia monds, a pendant, a brooch and a pair | of rare hlack diamond earrings sur rounded by white diamonds. A peculiar feature of the robbery | was that some particularly valuable gems were left in the bureau drawer from which the others were removed. ' They could hardly have been overlook- ed, and this suggests that the job was a hurried one. Mrs. Hanan seldom wears the jew- els and would not ordinarily have had them at “Shore Acres.” They had been brought over from New York at a time when she had expected to give her annual reception to Governor and Mrs. Pothier. The illness of Mr. Hanan had made it necessary to cancel the func- tion. Mrs. Hanan said that the domesties, of whom there are about twenty-five, ' had been eliminated in the investiga tion. With the exception of two but- lers, engaged this year, all of those employed at “Shore Acres” have been with the family for years. A theory of | motorboat thieves also has been dis. missed, as the shore of Block Island Sound, over which the house looks, is rough, and a small boat would have great difficulty in landing anywhere near the estate. It is the common belief in the Nar- ragansett colony that the robberies are the work of the same gang of thieves who operated successfully at the Pier and Newport last season and that the same group is responsible for the theft of $50,000 worth of jewels from the home of Harry I. Haas, at Long Branch, on the night of July 2. |e CASTRO IN VENEZUELA He Starts a Revolution and Imprisone: a Governor, Reports have reached Willemstad, | Curacao, that former President Cipria- no Castro has landed in Venezuela and | started a revolution. Castro's followers are said to have captured the town of Caro, in the state of Falcon. General Leon Juredo, gov- ernor of the state, is a prisoner in the | hands of the invader's forces. The government of Venezuela is thoroughl yalarmed. Hundreds of ar- rests have been made in an effort to, head off the revolution. | Castro, it is said, plans to invade | the country from several points simul- | taneously. Expeditions are forming in | Colombia, but the Colombian govern-! ment is observing strict neutrality. ——— Bill Provides “Fathers’ Day.” Senator J. Hamilton Lewis has come to the conclusion that the “old man of the family has not received proper re cognition from a grateful country. He announced his intention to introduce a bill setting aside July 29 as “Fathers’ Day.” Already there is a “Mothers’ Day” and a “Children’s Day.” fin Shoots Dog; Hits Man. Harry Brown, forty years of age, was shot in front of his home in Ham- monton, N. J. presumably by Anto- nio Berenato. A companion of Ber- enato, who was arrested by Officers Myers and Small, says that Brown's dog attacked Berenato while the lat ter was on a wheel. Berenato then shot at the dog, the bullet entering Brown's shoulder. Say Wig Caused Death, A heavy toupe, worn because his natural hair had been lost through il} ness, probably caused the death of O.
