When she returned she found the room door locked,
she had left it. and its contents apparently un-
disturbed The bureau drawer and even the jewel
case were also locked but nevertheless the latter
was quite empty. Whoever took the jewels must
have had keys which fitted all these locks We
notified Inspector o. Brien right away. The hotel
people have done nothing"
