Kaya About thr kabjccl. “I would like to know how aomc jewelry atore keepera manage to aril their warre ao much cheaper than othera." wa« the remark that a man heard the other dnyin n famous jewelry ahop not far bom Union square. The apeakrr was n pretty young lady who held in her dainty right hand a beautiful solitaire diamond ring not Ir— than a carat in weight ••This ring." she continued to the clerk, -you ask (110 for. You say there >s on actual market value for pure white stnnos of this weight, and that no retailer can Bell it for leas and trill make a

profit

“Ilow is it, then,"the conrinnod, “that —and aho mentioned the name of a well known place near Madison aquare, 1 "they offer me a ring with exactly this aim of atone for (85? The diamond warranted absolutely pure and flawleal and to weigh a carat" The clerk to whom this qneerion was pet wore a peculiar smile as he uttered the two words "jewelry fence*.’ Then be went on to explain to the lady certain facta that very few New Yorker* know of, but which have been very apparent to reputable jewelers for aercral

year* past

ADVANTAGES OF THE "rENCES." There are half a doxen large and fash-

ionable jewelry store* on Broadway and the adjoining streets between Tenth and Thirty-fifth streets which are nothing more than repoaitorira for stolen artidcs of jewelry. These people, of cooae. preserve a respectable appearance, even toward their questionable

These fashionable "fences" do an im-

mense business, amounting to thousands of dollars every month, in this way. They have a prestige over the ordinary pawnshop, for the reason that in nine cases out of ten they buy the goods outright, and pay 20 per cent nearer the market value th»n the other*. Of course many of them do a legitimate pawn business, and in this way also are enabled to sell their wares at much lower figures than the square up and down

jeweler.

But the main attracrion these placet have for the gentlemanly sneak thief is the protection they offer against detection by the police. The Utter in hunting for stolen goods seldom if ever invade these places, whoso great show of plate glass, hundreds of thousands sf dollars' worth of stock and outward effusion of respectability seem to present perpetual barrier* against fraud of any description. Said a well known jeweler in speaking of the matter: •There are scores of robberies committed every day by sneak thieves ol which the public never hear at alt These robberies of jewelry are reported to the police, but they seldom get into the newspaicrs. as it is the policy of tbs ' men at headquarters to place the’ thievm on their guard by announcing the ft that the police arc clow on their trail.' WHAT 1NSFECTOB BTKXES SAVA When Inspector Byrnes was asked about these "fences" he said that while they may exist he has serious doubts of their doing a regular business of this bind to any magnitude. Several times, in tracing up stolen jewelry, especially diamonds, he said I"* detectives have found the goods in one of the swell Broadway store*. When the proprietor in one instance was asked how be came by a certain pair of diamond solitaire earrings worth between (900 and (1.000 he said that a well dressed, middle aged man brought them to the place. He was attired in deep mourning, and explained in doleful voioo that his wife had but recently died and that he had no use at all for the earring*. He asked if the proprietor would purchase them, and on being answered in the affirmative asked how much he would give. (700 he handed them over, and on getting the money left the store and that the last aeen of him.

Bejears:

could only conjecture. In another instance where the police Were hunting foe several ladies’ ring*, a diamond lacepin and a diamond bracelet, they were found in a Broad wav jewelry store a few-blocks above Madison square. The pereun who sold them, according to the proprietor, was a young lady who had every appearance of respectability sod refinement. She told the owner that ahe was an English woman recently arrived in the country. Her funds had become exhausted sooner tl'»n she expected. and it was pod lively necessary for her to begin a western journey at once. It would take her some time to communicate with her friends at boms to obtain the necessary money. So (be had no other alternative but to realize on her jewels. She was given (1,200 for the jewels, but although she was particular to request the proprietor to keep them, aa she wished to redeem them, she had never shown up. The police snlseqnently discovered the woman was under the protection of a well known thief, who had committed the burglary.—Now York Journal.
