ROBBERY UNDER CHAPMAN,sN NOSE
Burglar Broke the Window or q broadway
Jewellers Store and Helped Himself.


There was a burglary in Capt. Chapman's baili-
wick yesterday morning, in sight of the posts OF
four policemen. any ono of whom might have
seen the burglar If they hadn't all been SO busy
keeping street walkers on tho move. The burg
lar selected one Of the best lighted spots on
Broadway for his work, and he got away with
everything he started out for.
NJ. S. Cooper keeps q jewelry store ut 1899
Broadway. Tho store is between Thirty third
and Thirty-fourth streets. There is u turn in
the block between these two streets, and tho
jewelry store is right on the turn. The en-
trance to the store can be seen from
either Thirty-third or Thirty-fourth street
II one stands on either corner at
Broadway. From Sixth avenue, also. the
entrance can be plainly seen. But none OF
ChapmRn's men covering these three points, or
the policeman on post on Broadway, saw any
thing unusual yesterday morning. 1t was a
private Waterman who discovered tho burglary.
The mar who committed it smashed the plato
glass window near the entrance to the store.
The hole made was big enough to stick n head
To to'G reach at nnV and 1' Sbsain "' What 'nS was SpS witS:
in reach. He got several silver match
safes, half a dozen souvenir spoons. q silver
claspcd belt, and two ornamental clocks. The
property carried away was valued at 800. He left
several small articles because he couldn't reach
them. He probably didn't care to make a larger
hole in the window, as the noise of the falling
glass the second time might arouse one of Chap
mans men.
Jewollcr Cooper said last night that he never
left anything very valuable in the show window
nights, but put his valuables in the safe. Mr..
Cooper said 1t had been his habit TO leave
the articles which were stolen in the
window nights SO that there was something to
show that n jeweller occupied tho store.
The robbery, was committed between 8
and 4 o'clock. The Waterman who dis.
covered tho broken window Mt 1 A. NJ.
passed the store an hour before and everything
was all right.
Two OF Chapman's sleuths are now looking for
the burglar.
