THE BLUEFIELD
DIAMOND ROBBERY
Those who pay attention to the
records of criminal cases, as reported
by the newspapers, and who have a
good memory for such matters, will
recollect the Interest aroused, now
several years ago, by the trial of one
Robert Morris for what was known as
"The Blue-diamond Robbery." In the
minds of some, perhaps, the details of
this crime may be still fresh. But for
the benefit of that infinitely greater
number of persons whose memorial fac
ulty la only a nine days' affair. It will
be as well to recapitulate all the facts
of the caae before proceeding to the
elucidation of one very mysterious
point, which at the time of the rob
bery baffled the cleverest detectives In
London.
First, then, for the recapitulation of
the facta, as disclosed before the right
honorable, the Lord Mayor at the Man
sion house, and subsequently before
the Recorder of London at the Old
Bailey. The victim of the robbery waa
one Jacob Blumefeeld, an Anglo-German
Jew, and a well known diamond
merchant In Hatton Garden. This gen
tleman, In the couse of a vIsK to the
Dutch East Indies, with a view to the
purchase of pearls On which he also
dealt), had picked up from a native
Sumatran, for a song, six stones, which
the vender supposed to be small, pale,
and therefore comparatively valueless,
sapphires, but which Blumefeelds eye
told him at once were those rarest and
costliest Btones In the market via.,
blue dlumonds. It was stated In court,
I recollect, by expert witnesses, that
there were not more than thirty blue
diamonds known to exist, and that the
ratla of their value to ordinary dia
monds of the same size and water was
at least 100 to 1. On this basis the
tlx stones referred to, despite their In
Ignficant size, were worth fully $100,
J00; Indeed, at the time when they were
stolen Blumefeeld was negotiating a
iale ul them to Messrs. Rostron, the
Bond street Jewelers, fur a sum several
:housand dollars In excess of that. It
may be readily Imagined, therefore.
;hat the theft of such gems excited no
mall Bensation.
The circumstances of the theft were,
ir appeared to be, sufficiently common
place. On the day of the robbery
Blumefeeld had carefully locked the
Blue diamonds in his safe when he
jultted his office at 6 o'clock. At
about 8 or 9 the watchman who wa
n duty, and who had received particu- i
:r instructions to keep an eye on
Blumefeeld' ortlce, happened is Cite
the flash of a light through the koy
flole, and pushing open the door,
which he found unfastened, made his
way inside and actually caught the
thief red handed in Blumefeeld' room.
He at once collared the fellow a small,
weak man, who made little resistance
to his stalwart captor and raised the
Harm. In a minute or two several con
stables were on the scene, and a little
later an Inspector arrived, who lost no
time In dispatching a special messenger
to Blumefeeld private residence in
Pembrldge square.
On the dlamfnd merchant arrival
a thorough examination of the prem
ise wa made, disclosing the fact that
his safe had been opened with a dupli
cate key, which, in fact, wa still In
the lock, and that, while everything
else had been left untouched, the most
valuable contents, namely, the blue
diamond, had been abstracted. The
thief, of course, was thch conveyed,
without delay, to the nearest police
station, and duly charged by Blume
feeld, who now recognised him as a
man who hud called upon him at his
office a few day previously In refer
ence to a proposed purchase of gems,
which had fallen through. He recol
lected, also, "that he had had occasion
to leave the stranger alone In his
office for a minute or two; when, prob
ably, the latter had managed to get
an impression of the lock of his safe.
The prisoner did not deny this. Nor,
In spile of the usual caution, did he
make any secret of the fact that he
had broken Into the office for the pur
pose of stealing the blue diamonds.
Hut that he had atolen them he stub
bornly denied.
"Borne one else had forestalled me,"
he ald. "1 found the safe open and a
key already In the lock. I'd got my
own duplicate, but I didn't have to use
It. If you -search me you'll find It In
my waistcoat pocket."
In confessing he had entered the of
fice with felonious Intenl, he wa, of
course, only admitting a much a the
clrcumlanre of hi capture rendered
obvious Mid Incontrovertible, and, o
far as that went, wa doing himself
neither harm aor good. But hi tate
ment that he had been forestalled wa
o clearly of the cock and bull type
that no credence whatever wa nalur
ally attached to It. He was subjected
to the uual vigorous search. The du
plicate bey, as ha Mid, wa In hi
waistcoat pocket, and In hi coal
OtflHtlir inert were oh or two other
felonloue instruments. Tet not a otea
of a blue diamond, or any other Jewel
nor valuable, wa found upon him.
His clothes, hi boots, hi hat, his per
son, even to the inside of his mouth,
were again and again examined. Not
a trace of the missing stones! And
this was the more remarkable because
he had been collared red-handed, and
from that moment no chance whatever
wa allawed him of throwing away or
otherwise disposing of the stones.
"I tell you I haven't got them," he
kept persisting. "I'd have prigged 'em
If I'd the chance, I don't deny, and
it would be no use If I did. But I was
forestalled, I tell you. Some other
chap must have got it Just before me
and lifted 'em. You're only wasting
time and trouble in searching me.
You are. Indeed."
Of course, no attention was paid to
this ridiculous assertion, and after the
process of search had been repeated
again and again, Blumefeeld returned
with two of the police to hie office In
Hatton Garden, where it was thought
possible that the thief might have
managed to drop the stones. But the
most careful scrutiny of every nook,
cranny and corner failed to discover
them. Blumefeeld very naturally fell
into a fine state of mind.
"Never mind, si.,", said the Inspec
tor. "We're bound ta find them,
you know."
"Do do you think that there's any
chance of that scoundrel's story being
truer exclaimed Blumefeeld anxious
ly. "Not much," laughed the Inspector.
"I'll give a hundred to the first man
that put his hand on them," cried the
diamond merchant.
Which offer, you may be ure, made
the Inspector try hla very hardest In
the matter, but did not, any the more,
make the discovery of the missing Jew
els an accomplished fact.
Next morning Morris was charged at
the Mansion House before the Lord
Mayor. He admitted, as he had done
overnight, his felonious intention In
breaking Into Blumefeeld' office, but
he still strenuously denied that he had
stolen anything.
"I meant to steal the blue dia
monds," fee persisted. "But I'd been
forestalled by some other man. I've no
more to say, and shouldn't have if
you was to question me till the day of
Judgment"
. He was remanded for a week to give
the police an opportunity of finding
the missing stones; and when brought
up again at the end of that time, the
diamonds still being undiscovered, and
there being no immediate prospect of
their discovery. Morris was duly com
mitted to the Old Bailey.
In the Interval between that event
and his trial. Blumefeeld obtained
leave to see the prisoner In Newgate.
"Look here." he said to him (I am
condensing the evidence subsequently
given by a warder at the trial). , "I'll
make you an offer. If you'll tell me
what you've done with those dia
monds, and enable me to recover them,
I'll pay f2,0OO to any representative of
yours you like to name. The money
shall be paid to him In cash here. In
your presence; and then you can have
It when you come out. You're not
making matters a bit better for your
self by sticking to that absurd story. If
anything, rather worse, for you'll get
dropped on more heavily by taking that
then it yon do your best to restore
me my stolen property. Now, then, you
will be a fool if you refuse; you will,
upon my word."
"If I had stolen the diamonds, or
know where they were, I'd close with
you like a shot, Mr. Blumefeeled. For
I know very well that I'm In for five
years, anyhow. But I didn't steal
them, and I don't know where they
are any more than you do," answered
Morris. "My story sounds unlikely
enough, I am well aware. Maybe the
Judge and Jury won't believe It, either;
but It's true, and that's all about it."
From this position true or false
nothing could induce him to budge.
The day of his trial arrived. The case
excited very great Interest and the
recorder's court was packed. There
were two counts In the Indictment; the
one (I'm not a lawyer, and only quote
from memory, and therefore I will
crave Indulgence In case my legal
phraseology be Incorrect) the one of
"feloniously breaking into"Blumefee!d's
premises In Hatton Garden; the other
of "stealing therefrom diamond to the
value of 20,000." To the former the
prisoner pleaded guilty, and to the lat
ter not guilty, and the prosecution,!
In the hopes of procuring a more exem
plary sentence proceeded with the
charge of stealing the Jewels. Hut this
was a difficult matter to prove. Kvery
body, of course, was convinced that
Morris had stolen the diamonds, but to
establish It by the technical rules of
evidence wa quite another affair.
Against the fact that be was caught on
the premise, admittedly with the Inten
tion of stealing the diamonds, had to
be set the fact that no sign of a dia
mond, or any other stolen article, wa
found upon him when caught. Further,
more the circumstance of hi having
refused Blumefeeld' offer of 2,000,
which wa elicited by hi counsel in ev
idence went to some slight extent In hi
favor. But this the prosecution tried
to discount by advancing the theory
that he must have had an accomplice
who had made off with the Jewels and
that the prisoner wa hardly likely to
give away 120.000 for 2,000. On the oth
er hand the defen urged that there
wa absolutely no evidence of the ex
istence of sn accomplice; and, beside,
after the manner In which the theft had
been bruited abroad end advertised, It
would be Impossible for the thief or
thieve to dispose of them for a quar
ter of their value, It, Indeed, at all; In
which contention, of course there was
some truth. . .... ....... -
. The recorder summed up at oonsid
eraMe length careful, equipoised
sraunlag up, as I remember thinking
at the time, balanced, like the sen
tences In a Greek dialogue, with per
petual "on the one hand"- and "on the
other hand;" Impartial, no doubt, hut
colorless, and affording no assistance
whatever to the Jury. The latter, after
considering their verdict for an hour or
so, at length brought the prisoner In
"not guilty" on this indictment He
was then sentenced to twenty months'
hard labor, the recorder observing that
If anything previous had been known
against him, which apparently there
was not, he should have sent him Into
penal servitude.
Such Is a brief a very brief recapit
ulation of Robert Morris' sentence in
connection with the theft of the
blue diamonds. Any one who is inter
ested to go more fully Into the details of
the matter can turn up the case In the
back volumes of the newspaper, which
he can put his hands upon at any of
the public libraries. If he does so, he
will find, I believe, that much as I have
pruned and condensed the reports, 1
have not omitted any material item.
And, Indeed (to say nothing of the re
quirements of space In these columns)
It would be- wearisome to retell the
story at any length, since, for the one
mystery in the matter the disposi
tion of the blue diamonds by Morris (as
suming him to have been the thief, as
everybody still did) the rest of the
features are commonplace enough.
I now come to the Important point
In my. story; the only part of It which
Is not mere recapitulation, namely
the elucidation of the mystery as Im
parted me only a few weeks ago by
Morrl himself. I may take this oppor
tunlty of saying that I am the doctot
who attended the ex-convlct In hla last
Illness, of which the fatal termination
came so recently as a fortnight since.
"Doctor, he said to me one day,
about a week before he died, "I shan't
leave any effects behind me to pay
your bill. But I can leave you a little
secret which you might turn Into a
nice sum of ready money. If you set
about It right away. Ah! what a fool
I was to go and make ducks and drakes
of all that oof. Do you know, doctor,
after I came out of shop I was worth
8.000?"
"Bight thousand!" I exclaimed.
"Then you did steal the blue diamonds?
How the devil did you. manase to hide
them?" ',
"That's the secret I'm fling- to tell
you. Ah, doctor (he chuckled glee
fully: I am not writing a moral tale; I
will tell the truth; and the truth Is that
Robert Morris was not in the least pen
lent). I had the diamonds on me when
I was caught; I had them on me when 1
was searched at the station, I had them
on me when I went before the Lord
Mayor; I had them on me when I wan
tried at the Old Bailey; had them on
me all the twenty months when 1 was
In the stone Jug aye, all the blessed
time."
"Impossible!" I cried. "You could
not have concealed them."
"Couldn't I, though? Ah, doctor, I'll
show you. Bring me that cup off the
washstand, now. Do you see what's
In It?"
"Your grinders," I said, looking down
at the double set of false teeth lying
In the cup, "what about 'em?"
"N'li.e ones, eh?" he said with a leer
and a wink.
"Very," I answered. '
"Made 'em myself," he said, with an
other chuckle. "The p'leece knew 1
was a dentist's asplstant, too. sWondet
they never guessed."
"Guessed what?"
"Take 'em out of the cup," he said.
I did so.
"There' a little mark at the side of
the plate," he went on. "It's a spring,
rress It with your thumb nail."
I obeyed his Instructions. In an In
stant all the top grinders sprang open,
revealing to me the fact that each of
them waa simply a small hollow re
ceptacle, contrived, as I saw on closer
examination, with the most artful skill
and workmanship.
The sick man broke Into a yet more
gleeful chuckle, as he watched the
amused wonder with which I was gaz
Ing at this marvellously clever effort
of skill and cunnig.
"There!" he said, chuckling until he
coughed himself speechless. "Not so
Impossible after all eh, doctor?"
Subsequent Inquiries which I address.
ed to Morris himself elicited the follow
ing facts: That, recognizing the ex
treme risk he ran of being caught, he
had had two duplicate keys of the safe
made In order that by leaving one of
them In the lovik, some color might be
lent to the assertion that he had been
anticipated by another thief. The ex
tremely clever contrivance of his fal?e
teeth, was, however, of course, hl
chef-d'oeuvre, and he had put the dia
monds into these marvellously con
trived receptacles the moment he took
tbem. Hardly were the teeth safely
back In his mouth before the risk he
feared eventuated, and he was pounced
on by the watchman.
"But It wa worth It," thl Impeni
tent lnner told me. "Aye, If I'd got

Details of the Growth and Advancement of Magnetic Osteopathy
COMBINED BY PROF. KHARAS,
The Founder of over a dozen Large Institutions of Iowa and Nebraska.
Omaha, Neb. (Special) The attention
'f the reading public has often been
called to the remarkable progress made
along scientific lines by the repeated
discoveries of Prof. Theo. kharas. He
has been devoting years of study lead
ing toward scleritilic unfoidment in the
realm of psychic thought as well as
new methods of curing diseases without
drugs, medicines or surgery, or any me
chanical or chemical appliance. The
method which he has practically per
fected Is known as "Magnetic Oste
opathy." In speaking of the grandeur
of this science, Prof. T. J. Ruddy, man
ager of the Kharas branch office in At
lantic, la., said:
THE KHARAS SYSTEM DEFINED.
"Osteopathy Is a method of treating
diseases by manipulation, the result
and purpose of which is to restore the
normal condition of nerve control and
blood supply to every organ of the
body by removing all physical obstruc
tion In the way of contracted muscles,
misplaced bones, contracted nerve cen
ters, etc., thereby stimulating and In
hibiting functional activity as the con
dition may require. Vital or animal
magnetism Is an electric substance or
force generated In our bodies and cap
able of being transmitted by the trained
mind from the operator or magnetic
healer to the subject or patient. Re
store this magnetic substance to the
patient's nerves and blood and you re
store at once the life, power and vi
tality he has lost. The grand forces
combined with a thorough knowledge
of anatomy, practical suggestive thera
peutics and mental science constitute
the "Kharas System of Magnetic Oste
opathy." Certainly the only rational
and scientific method of eurlng the old
chronic diseases which have so long
baffled the old school of practitioners."
From the wonderful success of Prof.
Ruddy since he has taken up this pro
fession, his Judgment should have con
siderable weight. He had studied the
"Weltmer Method before he entered
the Kharas school, but found that what
he had learned was not at all practical,
and that the must learn actual work
by practical study under competent
teachers. Why was It that Kharas
could accept him as a student and
when he finished his six weeks course
employ him for a year, with the privi
lege of renewing his contract for three
years longer, when other schools could
not hire him for a single month? The
only answer Is that Prof. Kharas has
the system which people recognize as
standard, and when he establishes an
office in a place he gets all the patron
age. People who have taken so-called
magnetic treatment and failing of
health come to the Kharas office and
are cured. Atlantio had an osteopath
who had been in the city two years
when Prof. Ruddy located there. But
now the Kharas manager has double
the work of the old established osteo
path. Why? Simply because he has a
grander, broader and much more com
prehensive system of curing diseases.
He can cute three times as many cases
as the old style osteopath. Besides,
from the study of psychology, Prof.

The above shows the location of the
Kharas Headquarters at 1515-1517 Chi
cago street, Omaha, Neb. Fronting on
Jefferson Park; It would be hard to
find a better location. A visit to the
Kharas Offices will convince any one
of the great progress being made In this
new science.
Ruddy is able to give what Prof.Kharas
calls "psychic diagnosis," which never
falls to give the proper cause and pos
Bible cure of the case In question. If
a case Is absolutely Incurable the Kha
ras people know It, and refuse to at
tempt an Impossibility. Others, not
knowing for sure what can be done,
stagger blindly ahead and make all
manner of ridiculous mistakes.

exactly the same conditions will never,
or rarely, produce the same results.
Can such risky work be depended upon?
It is being demonstrated dally that
Magnetic Osteopathy is an exact sci
ence. The same manipulation or. the
magnetization of a nerve center in one
individual will produce the same result
if performed on another. The Mag
netic Osteopath does his "practice"
work in school on free patients. The
medical man "practices " ait iiia - life
at the expenses of the poor, suffering
patient, and after all he Is no wiser.
His mistakes are buried and forgotten
only to be repeated on others!
SOME STATISTICS.
During the last eighteen months the
Kharas Headquarters and Its branches
have actually cured over two thousand
cases of chronic disease, and In nearly
every Instance the patient had been
given up as hopeless by the regular
doctors. The work of Kharas and nis
twenty-two able and trained assistants
is well known, and they unhesitatingly
challenge anyone to mention a single
death that has occurred under their
treatment of over two thousand so
called "hopeless" cases! They also
challenge the leading physician of
Iowa and Nebraska and the leading In
stitutions where chronic diseases are
treated to show that as an actual mat
ter of history over 60 per cent of all
cases treated by medicine and surgery
do not die under such treatment.
NOT A "FAITH CURE."
The element of faith or religious be
lief does not enter Into Kharas System
of Magnetic Osteopathy. It is absolute
ly scientific,, and it makes no difference
whether the patients "believe" in it or
not. Infants, idiots and Insane patients
have been repeatedly under treatment
with as good results as those who
claim to understand and believe In the
treatment. For that matter, a largo

REMARKABLE ADVANCEMENT.
Prof. Kharas has lived In Nebraska
for over twelve years, but some rears)
ago had been away at various schoota
and universities studying, and eighteen .
month ago returned to the state and
began business with a capital stock of
less than 15. Now, he is president of
the Kharas Infirmary Company, which
is organized under the laws of the statei
with a paid-up caiptal of $10,000, an
his financial standing and business loH
tegrlty Is absolutely unquestioned. HM

of dollars right along for advertising.,
He owns the Kharas Printery, whicW
prints weekly the Nebraska Socialist,,
the state official paper of the Socialist
party in Nebraska; the Kharas Book, a.
monthly magazine devoted' to social
reform, and Good Health, a monthly Il
lustrated paper devoted to his scleneo
of Magnetic Osteopathy. Although not
a politician, Prof. Kharas wa nomi
nated by the Socialist Convention la
this state, which met at Lincoln, ao
their candidate for governor of Ne
braska. He has no hopes of election,
but his nomination shows the esteem la
which he is held by those who know
him best. He would not give up hla
grand work for humanity to be gov
ernor of the state. There are other
who can do such work as that, but few
who conduct the great enterprise of ,
which he is the head.
A FEW OF KHARAS' CURES.
Postmaster John Onstott, Beeheo
town, la., brought hi 16-year-old boy
to Kharas to be cured of paralysis)
standing since the lad was 14 month
old. The best of doctors said that)
was no hope, but he was cured. Then
Mr. Onstott brought his wife, who wa
cured in a week of a dreadful case of
chronic constipation of years' standing.
Then one of their neighbors, Mrs. Belle
Coleman, went to the Missouri Valley
(Iowa) office of the Kharas company
and was cured of total paralysis of the
right side. Another neighbor, Mr. M.
A. Honaker, had been operated upon
two years ago for fibroid tumor of the
uterus.. The tv"1'' returned (of course)
worse than ever, and the doctors ara
a second operation would be useless snd
fatal. In desperation she went to tbt
Kharas Headquarters in Omaha, and 1
five weeks was cured sound and well
This was, some time ago, and not th
slightest symptom of a return of the
trouble has she ever had, nor will ah
ever have.
So much for one vicinity where Kha
ras' good work is well known. Where
they do not know the Kharas people
they call them "frauds." Where they
do know them, they have the entire
confidence of the people.
Recorder of Deeds Chas. C. Brant of
Nebraska City was cured of a paralysed
arm, pronounced hopeless by doctors
and surgeons, In less than a week's
treatment by Prof. Kharas. Mrs, A.
Sanquest of the same town (Nebraska
City) was cured of cancer of the breast
by the same bloodless, painless method
of manipulation. Mrs. Geo. C. Clapp
of Brock, Neb., cured of cancer on the.
nose by the Kharas treatment. Mr. 1.
A. Payne, the wealthiest and best
known man In Hamburg, la., or, for
that matter, Southwestern Iowa, waa
cured of numbness and writer's paraly-
sis of the right arm in one treatment,
of plies in one treatment, and In a
short time of a fistula that had been
troubling him for nine years.
Do the above sound like "Imaginary"
disease? That's the kind the doctors
say the Kharas method cures!
