MRS. FAIRS PERSONAL EFFECTS
Story About Them Being Rified Not
Entirely True.

San Francisco, Jan. 22.-Charles s.
Neal, administrator Of the Fair estate,
in an interview today, stated that the
stories sent out from this city to the
effect that the personal effects of Mrs.
Charles Fair. who was killed IN an au-
tomobile accident with her husband in
France last year, had been rihed and
that garments and valuable pieces Of
jewelry had been replaced with imta-
tion substitutes. Is not wholly true. Mr.
Neal said that a Russian sable cloak,
said to be one Of the most valuable In
the world. was replaced with an imta-
ton cloak not worth over $780, Where
the substitution took place and how,
Mr.. Neal IL unable to state. Sufficient
TO say however, that when Consul
General Gowdy searched the apart
ments Of Mr.. and Mrs Fair In Paris a
storage receipt was found calling for
the sable cloak, Whether the original
cloak was shipped to San Francisco or
whether the substituted was forwarded
Mr.. Neal Is unable to state. He is pos
Tive in his statement, however, that
no one In the consular service had any
connection with the fraud. AS TO the
theft and substitution Of iewelry. Mr..
Neal says there Is no truth IN the
story, but the fact has been developed
that Charles Fair. in his lifetime. was
the victim of gigantic swindle at the
hands OF a Partisan jeweler. When the
jewels Of Mrs. Fair arrived here an ex-
pert pronounced what was supposed "a
be a very valuable string OF pears and
q pair of earrings. limitations. Mrs
Fairs maid, when questioned stated
that the earrings and necklace were
those worn by Mrs. Fair for several
years preceding her death and which
she priced more highly thana any Of her
Jewels Charles Fair paid an immense
price for them and presented the pearls
TO bis wife, believing them to be gems
OF more than usual beauty and value.
Several small and valuable pieces Of
jewelry are missing but II Is thought
they were lost and not stolen.
