| Davenport, Aug. 2.-One Of the big
gest robbertes that has occurred in
Davenport for years was perpetrated
Sunday morning, when Stark g. Rusers
| jewelry store at 119 West Second street
| was entered and siiverware valued at
| 81 400 was taken.
The plan of the robbery, the method
of entrance and the way in which the
costly silverware was selected from
the case indicates that the job was
done by no amateur, but was carefully
planned and Systematically carried out
by bold and desperate men who had
every detail arranged before they at
tempted one of the most daring crimes
that ever took place in the city of Dav-
export.
Yesterday afternoon the beautiful
store of the well konwn jewelry firm
presented barren appearance The
show cases had been practically strip
ped of their costly silverware, the
heavy oaken wall case had been de-
pleted in the same manner and the big
store looked as If it had been disman-
tied and was to be taken away. The
firm when seen this morning stated
that 1t would be some time before the
exact value of the articles taken could
be ascertained, but Mr.. Ruser stated
that s1.4o0 was a conservative estimate
of the value of the goods taken. The
following is a partial list of the stolen
goods:
80 dozen solid silver teaspoons.
IL dozen solid silver forks.
l dozen solid silver knives.
Is large silver berry spoons.
dozen silver and gold lockets.
IS large silver tablespoons.
8 solid silver soup ladies'.
40 silver pieces from the repair shop.
Besides this is an immense quantity
of single piece articles were taken that
will amount to several hundred dollars.
Included in these is several dozen pairs
of silver and gold cuff buttons, spoons,
forks. knives, silver backed combs and
brushes, silver and gold mounted side
combs, mnicure sets, silver and gold
hatpins. etc.
When it is stated that every portion
of the long cases and shelves were
searched and the greater part of the
costly stuff taken, it can best be real
lied what thorough job the robbers
made of it.
The method that the robbers used
In selecting the articles which they
carried away is a good indication that
one of them, at least. was conversant
with the value of silverware.
