MRS BOwEN,s DIAMONDS.
They Arc Taken From Her Rooms at the
Riggs House.

They Arc Taken From Her Rooms at the
Riggs House.
The police were notified Saturday by the
receipt OF postal that diamond robbery had
been committed at the Riggs House Friday
evening, where the room occupied by ex-
Senator Bowen Of Colorado was entered and
relieved OF more than thousand dollars worth
OF diamonds. Thursday night the room Of one
OF the guests was entered and robbed Of $50
and all the employees were put on the alert, but
their efforts to discover the thief proved Of no
avail, for Friday evening the successful robbery
was committed.
The diamonds taken consisted Of lady's
cluster brooch containing about wenty-one
diamonds one-half carat each; two solitaire
rings. one containing avery white stone weigh
Ing one and three-fourths carats, the other
little larger. but slightly off color; one cluster
ring, containing small diamonds, about the
SIZE OF dime. and one cross-bar ring contain
ing three diamonds, one diamond cross, about
an inch and one-quarter long.
thursday afternoon a stranger called at the
hotel and sent his card to the ex-Senator's
room, but the latter was not in his room. This
man, 1t is supposed, wanted to locate the room,
but he did not succeed in doing SO at that time
because OF the absence of the ex-senator from
tho hotel.
Friday afternoon Mrs. Bowen locked her
trunk, leaving her keys in the room and went
down to dinner. After dinner she made call
upon one OF the guests in the hotel. and when
her husband returned to the hotel they went
10 their room together and then it was that the
robbery was discovered.
The room had evidently been entered by
means OF duplicate key, and the thief was no
doubt an expert in his line of business as no
one heard him in the room and he escaped
without attracting attention. The register was
examined and tho only person whose name was
not recognized was that of q man who had reg
is'ered from st Louis. Saturday morning the
stranger was not at the hotel, and a visit to his
room revealed the fact that he had gone and in
his room was found chear valise containing
copy OF New paper and several ba-
nanas. The man Is described as being about
fve feet eight inches tall, weight about las
pounds, with iron gray hair and side whlskers.
he wore silk hat, was we'll dressed, wearing a
dark overcoat and light trousers.
Private Detective McDevitt was called and
the case was put in his hands He has sent out
postals giving a description OF the supposed
thief and also description of the property. A
reward of $500 is also offered in the case.
