BURGLAR MAKES
A JEWELRY HAUL
J. B. ingalls,, Window of Whose
Store Is Smashed, Reports
Loss of 5000.
$11O DIAMOND RING GONE
Proprietor of Opinion Robbery Took
Place Between and z O'clock
Sunday Morning.

The j. B. Ingalls, jewelry store in
the Safety building was broken into
early yesterday morning and jewelry
valued at 5000 was stolen. The
identity of the burglar is a complete
mystery and the police have but
scant clews to work upon in trailing
him down.
The fellow emulated the trick of
Albert Smith. who broke into the
display window of the Ullemeyer
clothing store Thursday night. He
used brick in smashing a hole in
the plate glass window in the jew
elry store. Although the hole was
plenty large enough for a man to
crawl in, it is not believed that the
fellow did so. He confined his oper-
atoms to the jewelry which was with
in his reach and he made a careful
selection at that, taking only such
articles as would be easy to dispose
of for cash.
OverIoOks a Few Bets.
$40 diamond ring, several gold
filed watch cases, a gold watch
chain and several trinkets are re-
ported missing. A 21-jewel gold
watch and other valuables lay with
in reach OF the burglar, but they
were not touched The robbery, it
is believed, took place yesterday
morning between and o'clock.

SUES ART BROKERAGE FIRM
Plaintiff Says He Is Entitled to Share
of Profits.

Charles G. Ruthrauff and Mary 3. Ford,
partners in an art brokerage transaction,
are now codefendants in a suit that John T.
Clarke has brought in the Supreme Court
for S4,S17. He alleges that this is his share
of the sale of two paintings for $4,000 and
money that ne said he advanced to put the
canvases in salable condition.
In December, 1909, says Clarke, the de-
PENDANTS told him of three paintings on
which they had options. They had been
unable TO have the pictures authenticated,
he said and told him that If he would bear
the cost of sending the paintings TO DR.. de
Groot at The Hague, for Authorization
and would pay to have the pictures re
stored they would give him one-fourth of
the profits from the sale of the pictures.
Clarke paid 500 for the work Of restora-
ton. SO for frames and $50 for packing.
The cases containing the paintings were
sent to the steamship pier on their way to
Holland, but according to Clarke, the de-
PENDANTS had the cases unpacked on the
pier and removed the pictures TO their gal
lery at No. 101 Madison avenue.
The plaintiff alleges that the defendants
then sold two of the pictures Tor $4,000
making a profit of S1S,750 and still retain
share of the profits and the money he
paid out Justice Davis yesterday ordered
him TO make his complaint more definite
and to say whether the agreement with the
defendants was oral or in writing.
