Rich Women Robbed of Gems
Meet to Plan Burglar Traps

SOUTHAMPTON, Sept. ia group
of the most prominent society women
here met this afternoon to discuss
ways of making jewel robberies more
dlfficult and more dangerous. Mrs.
Joseph R. Dilwcrth, who had just
learned that the burglar who entered
her house early Thursday morning had
got away with $4,000 worth of gems
instead of $4,000, as she had at first
supposed, called the meeting and pre-
sided.
Mrs. Samuel Rea, from whose home
nearly 100000 worth of precious
stones were quietly removed before
dawn to-day, sat in the front row on
the mourner's bench. Only slightly less
prominent were the places occupied
by Mrs. Morrison Carnegie and Mrs.
c.. C. Beegs, whose losses occurred
early in the week and had almost
passed into ancient history as the
chronicle of Southampton robberies
goes.
The first business was the reading
of letter from O. c. Lane, the local
Chief of Police, who stated that despite

BERLIN, Sept. 16.-For the first time
In It's history the Reich shank, former
ly the citadel of Germanys economic
and financial might, closed its doors
for the day this morning on account
OF lack of money on hand. The short
ago assumed a particularly acute form
day, nearly all the banks putting up
signs of "No Payments Made" The
closing was only for one day.
1t was with the greatest difficulty
that foreigners were able to obtain
funds for their current expenses,
while even in the cafes and restaurants
payments were made by checks. Many
Americans who had planned to depart
were detained by inability to get their
checks or letters of credit cashed.
Daily Output Two and Half Billion
To-day's shortage was aggravated by
the Reichsbank's shipment of two bill
lion marks to Upper Silesia where a
particularly dangerous situation has
arisen due to discomfort of the work
ers over employers inability to meet
their pay rolls. Despite the feverish
activity of the Reichsbank printing
presses, which are operating on three
shifts of twenty-four hours daily, the
money famine has not been ameliorated d
thus far. The Reichsbank's daily out
put of new paper is now $500 600, 900
marks, yet despite this incessant
stream swelling the ocean of German
paper the money situation shows no
Improvement and threatens to assume
more dangerous aspect.
On the reparations question all hope
IS now centered on the visit of Ru-
dolph Havenstein, president of the
kelchsbank, to London, where he ex-
poets to obtain assistance in British
financial circles in obtaining the guar
antees demanded by Belgium. it is
to obtain the Bank of Engiand's con.
sent to place at the. disposition, of the
Relchsbank deposit of about 50,OO0,-
0o0 gold marks placed there by the
Reichsbank some time ago. The Ger
man fnancier is now supposed to be
seeking the transfer of this to the Bel
gian national bank to help cover the
100,000,000 gold mark guaranty de.
manded by Belgium.
Mark Reflects Hopeful Feeling
Havenstein ia expected to return
from England on Monday, and upon
his report will depend Germany's final
reply to the Belgian note. Official and
financial circles here are rather op.
timistic, feeling that some sort of ar
understanding with Belgium is prob.
able: This is reflected in the standing
Of the mark, which is holding it's owr
at 1,46O to the dollar.
LONDON, Sept. 16 (By The Associ-
ated Press).-Official character was
given to the visit of Havenstein by the
arrival to-day of DR.. Fischer, the Ger
man Secretary of State for Finance
The latter said he was awaiting the re-
suit of Havenstein's conferences.
The president Of the Reichsbank Wis
tied the Treasury Office to-day shortly
after the arrival Of Sir John Brad
bury, the British member of the Repa-
ration Commission, from Paris. Haven
stein later saw officials of the Bank of
England and other bankers, but SO far

the fact that jewels valued at over
100000 had been stolen in the lst week
he could find no trace of crime wave
in the town. He suggested that the
quick succession of robberies was a
coincidence, and pointed out that sim
liar depredations have been going on
fitfully all summer. He declared he
and his staff were prepared to fall in
with any plan the ladies might think
advisable
Just what plan was agreed upon was
kept secret, as the volunteer burglar
detectives had no intention Of spoil
ing their scheme by giving it away. 1t
is known, however, that insurance COM
pany detectives summoned from New
York have assured them thc t similarity
Of the methods used in each robbery
indicate that all have been the work
of one organized band. That no sigma
forcible entry have yet been discovered
by any of the victims has aroused the
suspicion that the robbers are work
inr hand in glove with faithful serv-
ants.
At any rate, the ladies came out OF
the meeting room with set express
sion and declared there would be nc
more burglaries.

Thousands Plunge in Sea
Seeking Safety ON Two
Am erican Destroyers

SMYRNA, Sept. 1s (By The AS
sociated Press) Smyrna no longer
exists. The fire which has been
raging for three days with unabated
fury has swept the city. and is ex-
tending to the suburbs. Only black
ening masonry and small vestige
of the Turkish quarter remain.
Death and indescribable misery
permeate the 100000 crazed popula-
tion. Six lone American Relief
workers are attempting the super
human task Of ministering to the
dead and dying. No other country
has as yet come forward to relieve
the suffering.
All the patients crowded in hospi-
tails, numbering not fewer than a
thousand, have been burned to death.
Relief Supplies Destroyed
All relief supplies sent from Con-
stantinopie by the American Relief
organizations were destroyed by the
fire. Major Claf1in Davis, Of the
American Red Cross, and H. c.
Jaquith, Of the Near East Relief
are bending all their efforts to evac.
uate the Christians as the only
means of saving them, but are han
dicapped by lack of vessels.
Bands of Turks are heartlessly kill
ing the helpless Christians and til,
whole city is in the throes of terror
Rescue work among the ruins is pro
ceeding slowly, the Kenalists ieavini
the fire victims to their fate.
The catastrophe is so vast that only
the collective efforts of tie allied ma
tions can cope with it. When the fir,
was at its worst the American destroy
ers Lawrence and Litchfeld were al
most swamped by thousands of mad
dened survivors who plunged into tn,
water in the darkness of night ant
swan out to the vessels, implorinl
piteously to be saved. The American
bluejackets rescued hundreds from
| drowning.

Baseball, Racing
And Tennis Results

The New York Yankees, Willis
Sharpe Kilmer's Sally's Alley and
William 7. Tilden I'd were win
ners yesterday in conspicuous
sporting events of the day.
The Yankees defeated the st.
Louis Browns by score of 2 to /
in the first contest of three
game series at st. Louis. Out

Yankees, was struck by a pop
bottle and knocked Unconscious.
Sally's Alley led hom a field Of
twenty-three starters in the

turlty at Belmont Park, defeating
Zev, the favorite, by three lengths.
Tilden retained his title of ma.
tional singles tennis champion by
his victory over William M. John
ston at Philadelphia. The scores
were 4--6, 3-6, 6-2, 6-3. Cd
The match also decided the per-
manent possession of the cham

Johnston had two legs on the
trophy.

Foreign Consulates Burned

LONDON, Sept. 16. Official dis
patches from Smyrna say that all the
foreign consulates were destroyed by
the fire with the exception of those of
Spain, Belgium and Norway.
Dispatches from Greek sources tell
of horrible tortures and mutilations
and wholesale executions. Large num-
hers of Greek soldiers have been de-
capitated, they say, and others forced
into sacks and thrown into the sea.
Allegations of having served in the
Greek army bring death to the Armeni-
ans, and women and children are being
put to the sword.
Estimates Of the number killed vary
greatly, and the latest Athens dispatch
quotes an American relief worker as
declaring that up to Thursday morning
there had been 10000 victims. 1t is
thought this figure may include the
wounded also, as previous reports
placed the number i. of dead at frs9a
1000 to 1000.
U. S. Flag Beacon of Hope
The American sailors ashore were
compelled to hold off great crowds Mt
the point of bayonets in order to keep
them from the frail destroyers. The
flag was hoisted on the quay and the
bluejackets went among the panic
stricken people, picking out those with
American citizenship papers. The
American flag was like beacon OF
hope, hundreds that could speak only
a few words of English claimed to have
been in the United States, but could
show no satisfactory proof. Others
said they have relatives in New York
Chicago, San Francisco and other
American cities. The Americans, how
ever, were forced to turn deaf ear to
these appeals. The big hearted blue.
Jackets were overcome with emotion OF
the distressing scenes and did theil
best to comfort the terrorized women
