ROB COL. LINDSEY
Thieves Enter His Room in q
Kansas City Hotel.
Take Diamonds Valued at
$4,000 From His Pockets.

Col. H. c. Lindsey, of Topeka, is
the latest victim of Kansas City dia-
mond thieves, according to word re-
received in Topeka today by o. c.
Perkins, owner of the Perkins auto
livery and a son-in-law of Col Lind
sey. Late Tuesday night or early this
morning, while Col. Lindsey was
asleep in his room at a Kansas City
hotel, the room was entered and dia-
monds valued at $1,000 and $50 in
cash were taken from the pockets of
his trousers.
One of the stolen diamonds was an
eight-carat, white stone and was
valued at $1,500. 1t was flawless and
one of the finest ever brought to To-
peka. According to Mr.. Perkins, Col.
Lindsey recently turned down an Of
fer of $1,000 for the stone A scarf
pin valued at $500 which contained a
taken from his trousers pocket. A
reward of 5000 for the return of the
valuables has been offered.
Col. Lindsey for several weeks has
been touring the east in an automo-
bile, visiting Chicago, st. Louis and
other points. When he stopped at
Kansas City he was on his return trip.
The name of the hotel at which he
stopped could not be learned. 1t was
about 10 or II O'Clock when Col
the night. He slipped the ring from
his finger and with the cluster pin
placed it in his trousers pocket.
1t is thought that the thief entered
the room by crawling through the
transom or unlocking the door with
a SHELTON key. -
Prior to the robbery Col. Lindsey
expected to return nome to Topeka
today. He te1ephoned relatives today
that he would remain in Kansas City
to aid in the search for the diamonds
The police and private detectives are
working on the case.
Diamonds are Cot Lindsey's hobby.
Besides those that were stolen he is
the owner of other valuable stones
o. G. Perkins, this morning, notified
the local police to look out for the
stones.
Colonel Lindsey was for several
years chief of police in Topeka and in
the early days of the police commits
sioner system, served as a commits
siOner. He is widely known here and
has been active in local and state poll
tiles for a number of years. In the
recent campaign, Colonel Lindsay was
among j. B. Billiards. chief supporters
when the Topekan made his race for
governor on a resubmiSsion platform.
Kansas City Version.
Kansas City, Mo-, June 9.@When
Col. II. c. Lindsey of Topeka came to
Kansas City this week he brought
with him his full collection of dia-s
monds and studs. Having served as
chief of police in his home town, pick
pockets were the least of Colonel Lind
sey's worries. While walking on an
uptown street, Colonel Lindsey wore
something like $4,000 worth of
Sparklers. He met some of his Kan
sas friends at a hotel and they went
ito dinner Later in the evening when
Colonel Lindsey went to his room, he
missed his diamonds. They have not
been found and the Topeka man re-
ported his loss to the. police.

weeks ago two sons of the dead man.
middle aged farmers from Urbana

formation a about their father. They
had not seen him for 16 years. Their
visit here RESULTED in the employment
of local attorneys who have since purT
sued various lines of investigation
These investigations have developed
material for two suits, one in New
NJ aXico against Mrs. Keith, who now
lives there, and, another which is be-
ing prepared for filing in the Shawnee
county district court against the
bonding company which furnished DR..
Keiths bond as administrator for the
estate of the dead man who ended his
days in the Keith hospital six years
ago.
As reported by the State Journal at
the time they commenced inveStlga-
lions here, the Meyers sons had not

had left them at Urbana and had lived
separated from his family FOR nearly

at once relieve the tension and silence
all the jingoes who are demanding
war Germany has always been a
friendly nation and great many or
our people are of Germany ancestry
Why should we not deal with Ger
many according to this plan, to which
the nation has pledged its support?
The second point of difference is
as to the course which should be pur-
sued in regard to Americans travelling
on belligerent ships or with cargoes
of ammunition.
"Why should an American citizen
be permitted to involve his country in
war because travelling upon bel
Iigerent ship, when he knows that the
ship will pass through a danger zone !!
The question is not whether an Ameri-
can citizen has a right under interna-
tionaI law to travel on a be1ligerent
ship; the question is whether he ought
not, out of consideration for his coun-
try if not for his own safety, avoid
danger when avoidance is possible.
One-Sided Citizenship.
..It is very one-sided citizenship
that compels a government to go to
war over citizens rights and yet re-
1ieve the citizen of all obligations to
consider his nations welfare. l do not
know just now far the president can
LEGALLY go in actually preventing
Americans from travelling on bellig-
erent ships, but I believe the govern
ment should go as far as It can, and
that IN case of doubt it should give
the benefit of the doubt to the gov
eminent
But even if the government could
MOI legally prevent citizens from trav-
cling on belligerent ships it could,
and in my judgment, should, earnest
" advise American citizens not to risk
themselves or the peace of their coun-
try and L have no doubt that these
warnings would be needed
president Taft advised Americans
TO leave Mexico when insurrectiOn
broke out there, and President Wilson
has repeated the advice This advice,
in my judgment, was eminently wise,
followed in regard to warning Ameri-
cans to keep off vessels subject to
attack
Embargo on Ammunition.
81 think, too. that American passen-
ger ships should be prohibited from
carrying ammunition The lives of
passengers ought not to be endangered
by cargoes of ammunition, whether
that danger comes from possible ex-
blossoms within or from possible at
lacks from without. Passengers and
ammunition should not travel the
same ground. The attempt to prevent
American citizens from mourning
these risks is entirely consistent with
the effort which our government is
making to prevent attacks from sub
marines.
1.-The use of one remedy does not
exclude the use of the other. The
most familiar illustration is to be
found in the action taken by munich
pal authorities during a riot. 1t is
the duty of the mayor to suppress the
mob and to prevent violence but he
does not hesitate to warn citizens to
keep off the streets during the riots
He does not question their right to
use the streets. but for their own pro-
