Diamonds and solid Jewelry to the value of $1000 were stolen last night from the apartments of Sing How, one of the belles of new Chinatown, who lives on the second floor of 83 North Fourth street, and out of the episode has arisen another Chinatown mystery, which may call Into question the sleuthing ability of the plain clothes department of the police force. The loss of the Jewelry left Sing How broken-hearted, besides the pecuniary loss she sustained in the robbery there was added the unexpected and painful dis covery that her best friend and room mate. Cheun Fah. had likewise disap peared, and circumstances surrounding the crime point strongly to the fact that Cheun Fah took the missing- valuables. Along with Cheun Fah is missing Hong Ben. a Chinese who lately came from Ban Francisco and who had been paying attention to the fair Cheun Fah. It was believed last night that it was true case of Chinese elopement and that Cheun Fah had fled with her lover taking the Jewelry of Sing How. Whither they departed now remains for the police to discover. Hos Sing, a servant, has been arrested charged with a part in the robbery. Photographs of the pair suspected of the theft were secured by the police last night and an effort made to appre hend the fugitives. It is thought they have not left the city. . Sing How la the young wife of Sing John, who is now in the East. Being left alone for a short time Sing How secured as her companion Cheun Fah. who came here from San Francisco.

Cheun Fah's keys were found on the floor near the trunk from which the Jewelry was taken. -Two diamond rings. one valued at $200 and another at $100, together with an assortment of . gold rings, bracelets and hair ornaments were stolen.
