Every two minutes a ton of coal is

Well-DreSSed Man Shows
Big Roll of Bills, Grabs
$1,000 Gem and Runs.

Furnished with a good description of
the thief, Central Office detectives, as
sisted by policemen of all the pre-
CiHcts, are today making every effort
to ind the man who suatched $1,000
diamond rims from a counter In T.
Warren Johnson pawnshop, 1924 Penn
sylyania avenue northwest, right before
the eyes of tine proprietor.
The robbery is one of the boldest that
has been reported i'm many months, and
was clearly the work of a professional
crook.
Well dressed the man entered the
pawnshop about 4 o'clock yesterday
afternoon. and asked to be shown a
ring which was being displayed In the
window.
Worked Old Ruse.
After an examination he said he could
not make up his mind 10 buy it, but
would call again later I'm the day After
leaving he stood gazing I'm the window
for a few moments. while the proprietor
watched him through the glass. In an
apparently careless manner, he drew Il
large roll of yellow bills from his poke.
and began lingering them as If contem-
plating whether ne could afford 10 pay
$1,000 for a diamond. Slipping the roll
back in his pocket he wandered down
the Avenue. his ruse having convinced
Johnson that he was a man well sup
piled with money and one with hobby
for buying diamonds.
Returning later he said he had de-
cided TO take the ring. Johnson got it
out of the case. and, after examining it
a minute. the stranger told him to write
out d receipt for $1,000 As Johnson
turned from the counter the man grab
bed the ring and fled.
Crowd Gives Chase.
He ran up the Avenue, and turned
down Thirteenth street. Johnson rush
ed to the door and called 70 several
persons iu the street TO stop him The
man ran on with a crowd az hts heels,
but at the corner of thirteenth and
y streets he disappeared.
The thief told johnson his name was
George Adams, This Is the name given
by one of the men who was registered
at a lower Pennsylvania avenue hotel
with Lee Walton. who was arrested
several days ago by Sergeant Harry, OF
the Tenth precinct The police say,
however. that his description does not
tally with that of the Z an VINO was
with Walton.

Career Full of Unusual Features.
Was Both Loved and
Hated.

BOSTON, Feb. John Brown Mo-
ran. known as the lighting district at
tomey of Suffolk county, died In the
st. Luke's Home. at Phoenix. Ariz., of
tuberculosis of the throat late last
evening.
District Attorney Moran went to
Phoenix about two months ago after
spending some time i'm the Adirondacks
and at Denver, Col He seemingly was
improving until two weeks ago. A few
days ago he was suddenly taken worse
and sank rapidly. He was cheerful TO
the end, joking and telling funny sto-
ries, until overcome by weakness.
About o'clock in the evening ne was
telling a story and had the room in an
uproar. As he finished the tale ha
swayed slightly, toppled over. whispered
a last goodbye and then passed away
Attorney Moran was a most striking
and unique figure who left his impress
sion on the public life of Boston. No
one man just like him was ever known
here. and it is doubtful if one of his
exact type was ever known anywhere.
Austere and Generous.
Austere as to his personal appearance,
gruff in his intercourse. caring nothing
for society. He was one of that type
which very seldom enter public office.
According to his means he had been
called the most generous man in Pos-
ton, and many criminals and charities
have benefited by his limited means.
He loved a night personal. legal or
political for the very delight Of COM
bat. and there is not charged against
him or ON record any insiuuati0n OF
having done a personally mean thing
by way of revenge to anyone with
whom he differed.
Born in Neaf0Td. Mass. of hard
working Nish parents on April ~. 1888,
John Brown Moran begged, borrowed
and worked his way through pTep9Ta-
tory school and college, and finally en-
tered q Boston law Office at the salary
of IS a week. He existed from hand 20
