WOMEN WIN IN
WEFT NICE
Captured After Three Months
Pursuit by Pinkertons, They
Obtain Freedom.
Captured after a three months chase
through a half dozen states, marked
by a spectacular automobile escape,
and frustrated time and again by the
cleverness of the quarry, two women,
Loraine Belmont and Alice Smith, ac
cused of the theft of diamonds worth
$1,500 from the Durham Brothers Jew
elry Company at 20 Edgewood avenue,
succeeded In eluding the Pinkertons
again today by convincing the magis
trate at White Plains, N. Y„ that there
was not sufficient evidence against
them.
This unexpected turn, coming just as
Deputy Sheriff George Broadnax and
Detective Sam 'Webb were starting for
the prisoners, astounded the Pinkerton
office here, which has been manipulat
ing the chase, and a telegram Instruct
ing rearrest of the women was dis
patched immediately.
The detectives declared that Broadnax
two weeks ago secured the necessary
papers and. with Governor Brown's sig
nature attached to them, took them to
New York, where Governor Dix had
agreed to the arrest of the two women.
They were astonished that the women
should have been freed before the At
lanta man arrived to give evidence.
The swindling of the Durham com
pany took place on June 20, when, ac
cording to the detectives, the two wom
en disappeared with $1,500 worth of
jewels which they had secured on the
payment of $135 in cash after securing
the recommendation of a prominent
Atlantan.

“YEE GUN,” HAS COURT
HANGING ONTO ROPES
Judge Andrew Calhoun came down
off his chair in criminal court. Solicitor
Lowry Arnold showed real distress, and
the jurymen gaped as Kong Lee, who
runs a “yee gun" at 158 Decatur street,
recited his story on the witness stand

that "yee gun” meant laundry.
Not only did he tell the jury the
meaning of that expression, but he
translated the entire testimony given
by his countryman.
