A Rascally Jewel Brokers Trick.
From the Jemeuer.s Wseklu

There was a trick played in Paris some time
ago which is fair illustration of the sharp
practices to which disreputable dealers will at
times resort. diamond broker brought TO an
American importer who was purchasing stones
in the French capital package of diamonds,
which he took from large. red pock etbook in
his breast pocket. He left the stones for ex-
animation and came back in the course of four
or five hours. The quality of the goods was
entirely satisfactory to the purchaser and the
terms of sale discussed.
The broker wanted higher price than the
dealer was willing to give and they haggled on
for some time until the differerance between
them amounted TO only franc a karat.
The broker, however, stubbornly refused to
go below the figure he had mentioned, and the
merchant was equally determined not to go
above his own price: so the former put his dia-
monds back into the sred pocketbook and
started for the door, having reached which he
stopped considered a moment and turned
bock, saying that he would yield the point of
difference, even though he lost money by it, as
this would give him an opportunity of securing
the future trade OF the dealer to whom he was
talking.
Out came the pocketbook again, and from it
was taken the package of diamonds, which
were promptly transferred and paid for. When
the merchant came to open his packet after he
reached home he found that a comparatively
worthless lot of stones had been substituted for
those he had examined prior to making the
purchase. The broker had accomplished this
deception by carrying two red books,
one in each of his breast pockets. and both of
them containing packages of diamonds of
exactly the same weight.
In taking back his good diamonds from the
dealer he put them in the pocketbook which he
carried on the right side. When he apparently
reconsdered his determination not to sell he
took out the pocketbook from his left-hand
pocket and conveyed from it to the merchant
a packet corresponding in weight with the one
the latter had been bargaining for. Pretty
sharp practice that.
