Police Scored by HousehoIders
as New Crime Wave Breaks
Over the City.

More criticism was directed at the
police department Friday when a Sc
ries of new burglaries and thefts were
reported
Probably the largest of the rob-
berry crop in the last twenty four
hours was that of $1,000 worth of
jewels from the home of T. c. Ham
ilton. No. 213 East Fair street, late
Thursday evening. The jewels be-
longed to Miss NJ. ]. Hamilton and
were reported to the police as fol-
lows:
Two solitaire diamond rings.
One princess ring, set with five
diamonds.
One gold ring set with large en-
erald and ten diamonds.
One pearl stud.
One gold ring set with a large gar
net surrounded with pearls.
One ladies' gold watch.
Strange Negro Employee.
The only clew detectives who in
vestigated the robbery were able &c
find was the presence of an uniden-
titled negro who had been employed
about the house Thursday. He came
early in the morning and stayed
throughout the day, helping with the
house cleaning. Several times he
was known to have been in various
parts of the house alone, although ii
is not known that he went into the
young woman's room, where the jew
ell box lay on her dressing table.
The theory of the police, however,
is that the negro entered the room
while cleaning and took the jewel box,
secreting it about his person or some
part of the house until he was ready
to leave. and then taking it with him.
A general order has been issued for
the Negroes arrest, and detectives also
are watching the pawnshops for the
missing jewelry.
