reflect itself In more repose in our

yesterday in the Supreme Court in the
sult of Ludwig Nissen to recover from
Mrs. Jules c. Natable pink pearl valued
at $1,000 which he asserted was stolen
from him in 1907. declared that he sold to
Nissen the pearl that was stolen. and
1t was not the same gem now owned
by Mrs. Vatable. Well was put on the
stand by counsel for Nissen.
Several experts called to testify as to
the value Of the pearl worn by Mrs.
Vatable in a necklace placed values on
the jewel varying from 5000 to $1,000
Otto Wormser said that New York was
the greatest pearl market in the world
and that prices are made in this city.
Mrs. Natable was on the witness stand
long enough to say that she bought the
pearl for $4,000.
Counsel for Mrs. Vatable outlined mis-

Nissen had thrown j. Edward Boeck. who
got the pearl from Nissen on memoran-

and therefore could not recover twice for
it, even If the gem now in the possession
OF Mrs Vatable proved to be the one
stolen from him.

Frank Reid, jeweler. at the latter's

was unable to come to court TO testify on
