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.

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.”

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.

A heavy toupe, worn because his

overcome by the heat while at work
