Council muffs, in.. Juno 12. Traced
by means of a diamond ring given to
tho daughter of one of Count II mutts'
prominent families, to whom he was
engaged to bo married, and confronted
with what seemed to be positive proof
that he was the chief in tho diamond
robbery which stirred the city last De
cember, Robert A. Hrown, clerk in a
shoe store, committed suicide, ii
body was found on the bed In his
room when search was made for tho
man wanted In police cotut. A re
volver laid by his side, and It was
found that he had shot himself twice
in the right side.
Hrown formerly roomed with F. M.
Scar, clerk In the First National bank,
and while he was still rooming with
him, dlnmonds belonging to Scar and
valued at $300, wore stolen. This
was in Ilecemhor, but no suspicion at

suspected tho ahoo cleric of tho theft
on account of his giving a diamond
ring to his dunce, Miss Coyle, and also
because he sometimes wore a diamond.
