THE American who travels in Eu-

to be relieved of his personal belong

hell, vice-president of the San Fran
cisco chamber OF commerce, who has
just finished two-year tour of the
world
"The light-fingered gentry are active
everywhere from London to Cairo, but
| will give the palm for badness and
dexterity to the professionals of Italy,
where the plumber of pockets has
been reduced to a fine art. l am a
careful man and did not need to read
the constant warnings against pick
pockets, and yet in the great plaza of
Venice l was robbed last summer of
my letter Of credit for 100000 There
was an enormous crowd that had
turned out to hear the band play, the
day being Sunday, and l was jostled
two or three times by huge fellow
with black mustache. Finally see

The air was pretty crisp and l wore
an overcoat closely buttoned. How on
earth the rascal managed to get my
watch and make away with it will
puzzle me to my LIES end, but he did
the trick, as l found on getting OF the
car.
Had It been only an ordinary time
piece I would never have said a word
of the loss, but it was an unusually
fine watch and l valued it much more
than the $500 it cost. The manager OF
the hotel, whom I consulted, advised
me against reporting the theft He
said that the local pickpockets OPP
Grated in gangs, and that within an
hour after being taken the watch was
probably in some ether city. This did
not sound well to me, so | hunted UP
the United States resident consul and
narrated my story to him. He gave

was polite, but he wanted me to de-

THAT evening the hotel manager
told me of an American who had been

had put up 5000 in advance with the

the recovery of his money. He had
