VALUABLE DIAMONDS GONE
UNSET GEMS WORTH $4,000 MISS
ING IN CHICAGO.
A Buyer for Stern Brothers & Co,
Claims to Have Been
Robbed.

Chicago, July LIS. G. Powell, q
buyer employed by Stern Brothers &
Co., wholesale jewellers in the Column
bus Memorial building, 103 State
street, reported to the police Tuesday
that he either lost or was robbed of a
sack containing $4,000 worth Of unset
diamonds. Powell claimed that he
had purchased the diamonds short
time previously and had entered the
Columbus Memorial building with the
intention of turning them over to his
employers. He said he entered the
elevator, but instead of getting off at
the floor on which his firm Is located
he rode to the fourth floor and en-.
tered a barber shop. When he went
to the Offices OF his employers about
Is minutes later, he discovered the
diamonds had disappeared.
Powell declared that he was almost
positive he had the diamonds in his
possession when he entered the build
ing. He said that he had two bags Of
diamonds, one containing $4,000
worth Of the gems and the other $45,-
900 worth, and that he carried one
sack in either inside pocket of his
vest. The police are inclined to be-
lieve that Powell may have been the
victim Of pickpockets before enter
ing the building. Acting Captain Cud-
more Of the city detective bureau said |
that circular giving description of
the diamonds would be sent to every |
large city in the United States.
Powell has been employed by the
iewelry concern for several years and
during that period has transacted
nearly all the purchasing of gems for
the firm.
