but a professional could pull the job
so swiftly and deity, the police at
once notified all the surrounding cit
les asking them to be on the lookout
for the burglars whom they believed
would be travelling in an auto. Judge
George Koenig did the long distance
yhoning. While calling the neighbor-
ing cities he was informed that at s

Mr., Law himself. He added that the
man came through the alleyWay from
! the south, walked over to the door Of
| the shop and walked in. He was III
there probably five minutes when he
! came out the same way, looked about
and went north through the alleyway.
! Wheeler said that after the man had
| left the store he heard an automobile
start up, and did not know anything
about the robbery until early this
morning. He described the man as
| being medium build wearing dark
clothing and dark SLOUGH hat.

not aroused in the least, as on several!
occasions Mr.. Law had entered his
shOp via the rear door. He also sail
| that his attention was drawn to the
man when his wife Informed him of a
chimney in the alley that was throw
| ing sparks.
According to the story told b.
| Wheeler, the thief had smashed the
door in before Wheeler saw him ente"

see if he might possibly be detected,
returning shortly afterward, when he
made away with the diamonds

that the time was about $50 o'clock
at night. but he didn't remember what
night it was. He went to the door
