NOT IMPLICATED IN THE CASE.
The police have closely searched for some
evidence that might !nplicate the alleged Count
Lucien d'Arnau de Rvere with the Burden
diamond robbery. but they confess that there Is
not the slightest pretext upon which to base the
suspicion that he was mixed up in the affair.
Their search, howeve". has led to some pc
cuar developments regarding this eccentric man
of alleged noble origin Leopold Rogge, OF
Paris. who suffered at the hands Of the bogus
Count has told the story Of his experience with
his travelling companion; but the countess
Ogier dIvry will say nothing. she Is sun a.

BE- the bogus Count
Rogge says that the mysterious Count ana
the Countess d'Ivry were good friends upon the
trip over. on the Red Star vessel Frlesland,
which arrived December II. and that ne
chatted with both of them. His chats with the
pseudo Count de Riviere resulted in the loss
of large sum Of money which he loaned 10
that enterprising gentleman He did not, how
ever have any cause TO distrust the Countess.
Rogge says that the Count as he called him

on this trip. but was short of money. and Dor
rowed, promising TO repay as soon as he was on
shore When they landed. the alleged Count.

Then he borrowed about al the money that
Rogge had left, and promised to be back at
the time set for dinner. He never came back.
When Rogge's suspicious were thus a.oused he
made investigation and found that the Count
had clustered at the Murray Hi Hotel on De-
cember Is had breakfast there and then disap-
peared. While in tie Murray Hill Hotel the man
wrote letter 70 Royce promising to make good
his Indebtedness. That Is as FAR as Rogges IN
