SEEKS TO RECOVER
.PAY FOR DIAMONDS
LOST 1T DAYv!EW

Through counsel. lady wso was
the loser of diamonds she valued at
not less than $500, has instituted suit
against the city, which she holds re-
sponsible for their loss, as the valu-
ables are said to have been entrusted
to representative or agent of the
city. and they disappeared after such
trust had been reposed. The lady
asks that she be reimbursed for the
value which she sets on her losses
This is an outcome of t he case
wherein valua bles were stolen at Bay
view park some weeks ago. IT is
claimed that the diamonds were left
with the management, and were prop
erIy carded. as the rules posted there
warn the public to do. During the
bath of the owner. who was accom-
panied by friends, unauthorized par
ties called for the package so speci-
fed and the valuables thus disappear
ed. Thus far. despite earnest work
on the part of officers, no trace OF
them has been found.
