M’s Lotto Bunch, Sept. 18.-Dowu at Eb boron, the most exclusive resort of all those on New Jersey' 11 coast, the robbery of the cottage of H. Victor Newcomh. the Wall street operator, of upward of 020. 000 worth of jewels and 0000 in money Saturc day night has led most of the ccttagors to employ private watchmen. , Private de- tectives from ll famous secret service will be put to work on the case today, Chief Layton of Long Branch and his officers having so advised. Mrs. Newcomb’s jewels were famous at Elberon and Long llrancb us well as in New York city, where the NeWcombs live in winter, at 083 Fifth uvonue. They were nearly all bcught of C.

In addition to those the thief. or thieves, took a large diamond sunburst belonging to Mrs. Reginald ii. Ward, Mrs. New- comb's daughter. which brooch she had given her mother to take care of ; some scorfpins of high value belonging to Mrs. Ward and the $600 in cash. flow the Robbery Occurred. The robbery was not discovered until 10 a. 111. Sunday, but it is now quite certain that it must have been committed between 7:16 and 0:16 p. to. Saturday. Those at the New comb cottage Saturday night were Mr. Newcomb, who returned to his home at 8:20 p. m., after several months’ ab- sence; Mrs. Newcomb, Mr. and Mrs. Reginald II. Ward, a guest of Mrs. were, and the six men and women servants of the household. The attention of Chief Layton of the Long Branch police was first (allied to the case at noon Sunday. He learned that on the side of the house facing the ocean. on the second floor, were four rooms. which were occupied by Mr. Newcomh, Mrs. NeWcomb and Mr. and Mrs. Ward, and that a ladder had been found on the out- side, reaching from the ground to Mr. Newcomb'a room. When Mrs. Ward returned from a drive at 5:80 o'clock Saturday, she found that a bureau in her room had been tampered with. Each drnwc‘r had 11 separate key, and the key of a lower drawer had been used in attempting to open the upper drawer. She thought but little about it. Mrs. Newcomb returned from :1 drive shortly after 7 o'clock. She kept her jcw~ els in a slipper buried under the other contents of a trunk in n closet of her room. She took out the slipper, found its contents all right and added to thorn 0200 in money and such jewels as she was wearing. Then she locked the trunk and hid the kcy under a pile of linen in on- othcr siesct, where she woe in the habit of hiding it. When Mr. Ncwconih nrrchd about 8:20 o'clock, he did not go to his room, but sail down to dinner. Soon after ii o‘clock Mrs. Newcomh sent her mold in her room to get a letter. The maid found 11 workhas- ket that had been on a table upset- ou the floor and the contents of Mrs. Newconib's handbag cinpticdout on the bed. It never occurred to her to report the matter to Mrs. Newcomh, though, and honcv the robbery was not discovered until the next morning, when Mrs. Noweomh wont to the trunk to gut SOIHUji‘WL‘ISfOWOlII’ to church. and found that tho slipper with all its troosuro was gone. The trunk had not been broken oywn. however, and the key of it, which she hull hidden under tho pile of linen in ulmtllor closet, was just where she had loft it. The Servants nil-trusted. Mr. Newcomb was inclined to 111istrnst. a mold and a butler, but Chief Layton questioned every servant in the house very thoroughly and come to the conclusion that none know anything of the robbery. He searched them and all their belongings. Mrs. Neweomh could not believe that she hull been robbed and jcatingly accused Mr. Newcomh of having hidden the jewels away to tease her. Mr. Ncwcolnb at first thought It would be better to advertise it big reward for the return of the jowals than to hire detect- ives, saying that ho hudonco thus scoured the return of a valuable watch which had been stolen from his wife. Chief Layton has been doing all possible to get seine claw to tho thlovos, but has discovered little and now wants help. In 11 field about 150 yards from the house was found one of the stolen jewel cases. The look had been ripped from it and was found some 25 yards further along toward the road lending to Deni Benoit station. nothcr small jcwclry case was found she t 40 yards further along in the some directioifi Thcrc wos found yesterday a diagram of Elboron, on which Mr Ncwcomb a house was designated by a cross This pm. per woe folded up carefully and tied with a black ribbon.

The court severely reprimanded the defendant's attorneys, who were obliged to admit to the jurym that Quinlan had been acquitted on each charge.
