nlanded for hearing at the Bow Street

hired furnished apartments in the Sa-
voy Mansions. They made purchases
OF a Jeweller named Gutnowski and
gave him the impression that they were
wealthy. They sent for him one day
asking him to bring to the apartment
a large selection from which purchases
might be made. The jeveiler appeared
at their place with gems worth f1.6oo
$4,000. He was promptly sand
hagged WHEN he recovered the couple
and the property were gone.
Scotland Yard detectives obtained
good descriptions Of the thieves and fur
ther found niShtgown OF the woman
upon which was "a laundry mark. With
this they were enabled first TO run
down Williams and a little later his
companion.
Williams is known 20 have served 4
sentence OF Imprisonment in the United
States. In 1903 he was extradited
from this country to the United states
on charge Of grand larceny and jail
breaking.
His companion is more noted in the
criminal world As Annie Grey years
ago she achieved international noto-
riety by stealing 100000 pearl neck
lace from Christio's. for which she
served a long sentence. Later she mar
rled a vaudeville performer named Fer
guson. The latter is dead. The woman
completed a tSo year sentence for theft
recently.
