HOPE DIAMOND THE SULTAN'sY
stone Now Reported Lost Is Said 10 Have
been stolen From His Palace.

A letter to the Evening Post from its
Constantinople correspondent, printed
yesterday. says that the Hope diamond.
which is reported to have been lost with
its owner. Selim Habib. Turkish mer-
chant. in the sinking OF the French steam
ship la Seyne in the Rheo Straits. was
part OF the plunder tnken from the Yildiz
Kiosk when the Young Turks compelled
Abdul Hamid to leave his palace last
spring.
The letter quotes a Turkish Official
as placing the total value OF the loot
at about 50 600 900. and adds that special
commission Is at work investigating
the robbery and attempting TO trace
the stolen jewels and other treasures.
The Hope jewel was bought by Babib
in Paris in 1908. from the New York
jewelry firm OF Frankel Brothers. which
had had IT for eight years and had found
It dead load. II was said at the time
that Habib. who was reported 10 have
paid 100000 for the stone. was acting
for the Sultan. IL is now asserted that
the stone remained in the hsrem until
the expulsion OF Abdul Hamid. when il
disappeared IL next turned up in the
possession OF a eunuch, Jehver Agha.
JonNeT Akna was hanged,
Last summer Paris dispatches stated
that the diamond had been sold with
the rest OF the Habib collection, and that
it had been bought by Louis Aucoc a
French expert. for $4,000. This sale,
later dispatches said, afterward was
annulled
There is no information as to the way
in which Habib again gained possession
Of the stone which he had sold to the
Sultan.
The diamond when it was brought
to France from the palace of an Indian
Mahar jah in the days OF Louis XIV.
weighed 1l2n carats in the rough. Cut
Il weighed So carats. With the end OF
Louis XVI. the stone was lost sight Of
II reappeared in the London market
IN 1880 and was purchased by Henry
Thomas Hope. IL weighed but az carats
Then Edward w. Streeter OF London
bought a small stone OF the same blue
color weighing about q carat, and a
drop shaped stone matching these was
sold in Geneva in 1874 from the collection
Of the Duke Of Brunswick. The weights
and shapes OF the three stones. after
allowing for cutting, bring them to the
size and shape OF the stone which was
sold to Louis XIV.
