Said to Be Largest Euer
Found in Western World.

An uncut diamond from British

liner Vestris In The iron chest of a pas
senger, Prof w. j. Lavarre of the
Smithsonian Institution and Harvard
University.
Prof Lavarre said the chest was in
charge of the ships purser. Harry
Beckett. and that 1t would be taken to
the Appraisers Stores. where the dia-
mond would be weighed and appraised.
and after the payment of duty would
be cut.
The professor gave no estimate of the
probable value OF the stone. He said
ne had gone TO British Guiana about
eighteen months ago to search for dia-
mond fields and that he had acquired
tho stone and others less valuable from
a native. He said there doubtless was n
great deposit of diamonds in the region
he had visited and from which the big
stone came. He was reticent about the
location OF the d almond field.

Mcdonald had worked about the Wee

the floor at the bottom of the stairs and
they went down after him in spite OF the
fact that the negro had an army auto
