NO CLEW TO THIEVES

Indianapolis detectives today were
investigating the theft Friday after
noon of trunk said to contain
about $4,000 worth of watches from
a transfer truck parked at Illinois
and Georgia streets.
Police learned only today the de-
tails of the trunk theft and that
it contained large amount of jew
elry. Russell Ryan, attorney repre-
senting insurance adjusters to whom
the theft was reported at Chicago,
reported the matter to local police.
The trunk belonged to Levitt &
Co., wholesale jewellers, 24O West
Fortieth street, New York City, ac-
cording to Ryan.
w. G.. Grimes, salesman, checked
the trunk to Chicago from the Clay
pool, according to the various sto-
ries told Detective Chief Jerry Kin
ney.
Finds Truck Gone
A Frank Bird Transfer Company
truck picked up the trunk at the
Claypool. The driver stopped at the
SEVERN, leaving his truck across the
street on Georgia street, to get two
trunks the transfer company hao
been told were there.
He could only find one trunk and
went inside the hotel to look for
the other one. Police are investl :
eating to determine whether the
call saying a second. trunk was there
was a part of the plot to steal the
jewelry.
When the driver came out OF the
SEVERN he found the truck gone.
The disappearance Of the truck was
reported at 5 p. m.
At $3.50 p. m. the night manager
of the company reported he had
found the truck abandoned in the
600 block of Madison avenue and
that a. trunk valued at $100 was
missing.
Watches Diamond Studded
First intimation that the trunk
contained jewelry was received by
police Saturday evening, according
to Police Chief Claude M. Worley
when Ryan phoned Worley that he
had received a long distance call
from Chicago that the missing trunk
contained jewelry.
Apparently Grimes, the salesman
went on to Chicago and did not dis
cover his trunk had disappeared un-
til Saturday. Grimes registered at
the Claypool Thursday and checked
c-v Friday.
At request of Chief Worley, Ryan
has wired the Chicago insurance ad-
justers asking that Grimes return
here to give police more information
about the trunk and it's contents.
Diamond studded watches made
up the most of the loot, Ryan said
