MYSTERY SHROUDS
. SHOOTING OF GEMS
c. A. Mum Disputes Police
Theory That Diamonds Were
Damaged at Home.

PHILADELPHIA. July 17.-Widely
divergent theories are held in the
mystery concerning the damage by a
bullet to a 100000 diamond necklace
received at the home Of Gurnee Mum.
Radnor, and belonging to his mother,
Mrs. Charles A. Mum. of Washington.
Three OF the largest diamonds in
the string were shattered when a bull
let was fired into the package in
which the gems were shipped from
Tiffany & Co. early In June. Though
the package was delivered June IA, It
lay in a drawer in the Mum resi-
dence until July 2, or eighteen days
before it was opened by John Dupre,
a valet.
At his Atlantic City home Mr.. Mum
denied that he had given an opinion
that the bullet might have been fired
accidentally by an armed guard In
the express car while the Jewels were
in transit. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Mum,
however, assert that the bullet was
fred into the box before the diamond
necklace reached the Radpor resi-
dence.
IT have formed no theory as to how
It happened" said Mr.. Mum. when
the damaged necklace was handed to
me at my Radnor house ] immediate
ly shipped 1t back to Tiffany n Co.,
New York, where II now Ia. i can't
say how badly damaged the diamonds
were, because I did not examine them.
don't know whether they were
broken or chipped.
"It would have been impossible for
the bullet to have been Ared Into the
jewel box after being received by
my servants at Radnor. Where IL oc-
Cured cannot imagine"
Express company Investigators dis
pute Mr.. Munn's theory and intimate
that the bullet was fired into the
package after II was delivered to n
servant at the Mum home. They ad-
vance tho theory that the servant, be-
lieyine the package might contain n
bomb, took IL out on the grounds of
the estate and, standing n safe dis
tance, fred shot at II to see IL II
would explode.
sergt. James Gegan. head OF the
bomb SQUAD, declared that eyemina-
tIon OF the package revealed that the
cord which bound the wrapper when
the box was sent TO Mr.. Mum had
been removed and another cord sub
stituted. He said there was evidence
that the paper wrapper had not been
penetrated by the bullet, and that
somebody made a hole In the paper
with his finger, evidently after the
bullet was hred into the wooden box
and the jewel case.

MARION, Ohio, July 1.-THE in
terests of Republican leaders here are
centered today on the outcome Of the
conference to be held tomorrow be-
tween President Wilson and Gov
ernor Cox, the Democratic nominee.
There is much speculation here as
to whether the two will reach an
agreement on the campaign issues
President Wilson's friends are in
sisting that the league Of nations
shall be the paramount issue of the
Democratic campaign. 1t is assumed
that they are speaking for the Presi-
dent. Admittedly. President Wilson
insisted that the Democratic platform
should carry a vindication OF his
league and a demand for its ratifica-
tion without '"nullifying" reserva-
tions.
Governor Cox has announced two
reservations that he desires to see
written into the draft of the League
covenant. He says they are designed
to safeguard the United States against
being drawn into war without action
by Congress.
Senator Harding has been house,
bound by work during the past week.
He Is losing much OF the healthy tan
the uuNS III
Washington following his nomination
when he sought relaxation on the golf
links. His friends are urging him to
break away again from the treadmill
OF work and get out into the open in
order to build up and conserve his
strength. He may follow their ad-
vice for n few days next week The
golf links at Mansfield, a few milos
away, are calling him.
Assurance Of support for the Re-
publican ticket from Progressives are
coming in daily to the Senator. Paul
A. Ewert, of Joplin, Mo-. and Frank L.
Ellison, OF Rochester, N. Y. are among
the latest TO write him.
To Allen b. Jaynes and Albert NJ.
'sames, leading Arizona Republicans,
the Senator sent the following mes
sage:
ut will he a great satisfaction next
November to see your state In the
Republican party.
A united party and a united effort
should insure this result.

D. c. TOO HOT,
SAYS PREMIER
Capital "Good Place" for Allied
Ministers Next Conference,
Except for Climate.
BY NEWTON C. CLARKE,
International News Service.

SPA, Belgium, July 1--WE
have accomplished much during the
Spa conference, but 1t would have
been better if the United States had
acted as an impartial participant" /"
declared Premier Lloyd Georges be-
fore leaving for London today.
LLOYD GEORGE SATISFIED.
The British premier was apparent
ly well satisfied with the result Of
the discussions. which came to an
signed the allied coal protocol pledg-
ing the Germans to deliver the allies
2,OOO, 900 tons Of coal monthly for q
specified time.
When Lloyd George was asked
where the next conference of the al
lied foreign ministers would be held.
he laughed as he replied:
washington would be good
place. but they tell me 1t Is pretty
hot -thers in summer / should prefer
Beaustille myself
Premier Lloyd George believes the
German government will have a more
difficult time enforcing the disarma-
ment protocol than the coal protocol.
Both call for quick action on the part
of the Berlin government, as both are
effective at once.
The British delegation, which was
the biggest at the conference, was
the first to leave, being followed BY
the French. The German delegation.
headed by Chancellor Konstantin
Fehrenbach, planned to leave for Ber'
lin late in the afternoon.
TALKS WITH CORRESPONDENTS.
There was a dramatic touch to an
incident that followed the adjourn
ment of the conference. Premier
Lloyd George. with a company OF
French officials, dined in q cheap
little cafe, where each ate III table
d'hote dinner Later the British pre-
mter sauntered over to the hotel
where the American and English cor
respondents, attired In correct eve
ming dress, were dining with much
formality.
Mr.. Lloyd George entered the din
ing-room and sat down with the cor
respondents. His gray sack suit was
wrinkled and baggy at the knees
from lack of pressing. His collar
was dirty and wilted from the heat.

pany In this district, having n yearly
output OF 10000 tons of coal and en-
ploying $500 men and boys, are idle
today as the result OF n strike insu-
gurated by the miners because the
company refused to abolish the con-
tract system by which contractors,
or "pushers," are given charge Of sew
eral chambers.
The miners allege these contractors
are given all the richest places to
work and that the ordinary miners
get what is left, many of them being
unable to make decent wages. Al
though one OF the miners demands

OF the contract system, the strikers
refuse to lay their case before that

injuries Result.

LOS ANGELES. Cal, July T.-Fol-
lowing Eve earthquake shocks, each
Of short duration. that vibrated under
Los Angeles and immediate vicinity
yesterday, the situation in the city
today resumed normal conditions.
The tremors were confined to a
zone o comparatively few miles. and
outlying towns and cities did not de-
tect the disturbances. reports indi-
Gated. In the city some damage was
done, but too Insignificant for money
estimate.
EIGHT WERE INJURED.
The emergency hospital began 70.
ceiving calls for the ambulances
shortly after the second and third
Quakes subsidized. Four more persons
making a total of eight injured thus
far, were taken to the hospital suf-
fering from minor cuts and bruises
sustained from falling bricks and
glass.
What damage there was consisted
chiefly of such superfcials as old
chimneys falling, insecurely placed
cornices and tower ornaments being
dislodged in the breaking Of seams
in brick walls.
A few minor injuries resulted to
persons, but these mostly were from
accidents due to precipitate flight or
fear. The first vibration passed at
1908 a. M. The second at 81 p. m,
and the third at about 1.29, The fourth
at 4:55 p. m. and the NTH at 6:13 p
m. None lasted longer than few
seconds, the principal characteristic
being suddenness, as after . blow.
MADE WOMEN NERVOUS.
The chief effect of the tremblers
was not in its material but in it's
psychological effects. Several thou
sand workers in offices and factories
chiefly women. were so nervous they
did not want to return to their dasks
or tasks after the first quake, and
were excused in many instances until
Monday.
Following the two succeeding
shakes there was an even greater
scramble to get out Of buildings and
in some cases entire floors were va.
cant with the office doors locked.
Possibly the worst damaged build
ing in the city was the Chester Inn on
North Main street. The two chimneys
dropped off, one going through the
skylight. There Is a five-foot crack
in one of the walls and another crack
an inch and a half wide in another.

At 1890 o'clock the regatta COM

its boat. This was the announcement
that the start OF the race had been
postponed until later in the day.
CAPTAIN INSPECTs SHAMROCK.
At that time the yachts were going

Burton and Designer Nicholson, of the
Shamrock, had taken a small boat

Fifteen minutes later a stray zephyr

not enough to warrant starting the
race.

A northwest breeze which blew ten
