San Diego, Cal.—C. R. Riese, con
fessed diamond thief, awaiting ar
raignment in Superior court to plead
to his part in the theft of $40,000
worth of diamonds and other jewels
from guests of the U. S. Grant hotel,
refused an offer of $10,000 made on
condition that he tell where the fam
ous jewels stolen from Mrs. Eugene de
Sabla the night of the Mardi Gras ball
in San Francisco are hidden. The
offer to Riese was made through Chief
of Police Wilson and Chief o f Detec
tives Myers. These officers claim the
jewels are insured for $60,000 and
that a reward of $20,000 is offered for
their recovery.
They offered to divide with Riese if
he would confess. Riese maintains he
had no hand in the De Sabla robbery.
Officers know that Riese, Paul Sobie
and Margaret Ward Manners were in
San Francisco at the time o f the rob
bery at the St. Francis hotel.
They
claim they have knowledge that Riese
knows where the jewels are hidden.
“ There is nothing to be gained by
keeping anything back,” said Riese to
the officers.
“ I have come through
clean with everything I know, and if 1
knew anything about the De Sabla
diamonds or of the crime I would tell
it.’ Ten thousand dollars is a lot of
money, but I cannot get it because I
don't know about the De Sabla affair. ”
Riese would make no further state
ment. Paul Sobie, his accomplice in
the other robberies, is held for trial
on a charge of grand larceny. The
woman was released, but is under sur
veillance.
Riese confessed to complicity in
stealing $85,000 worth of securities in
New York two years ago, for which
an attorney named O'Reilly was sent
to prison.

ing assistant manager. “ Stanton—"
Some one was running toward them,
some one for whom a lane was opened
by the spectators from other camps
who had congregated.
‘Get aboard,“ called ahead a fresh
young voice. 'Get aboard; I'll go.
“ Thank Heaven for a man!’’ snarled
Stanton, as the runner dashed up.
“ Why, lt’a a boy!"
"Floyd,” Mr. Green hailed hysterical
ly. “ You’ll go?'
“ I’ll go," assured Floyd, and faced
the driver; a slim, youthful figure in
a mechanic's blue overalls, his sleeves
rolled to the elbows and leaving bare
his slender arms; his head, covered
like a girl’s with soft closely cropped
curling brown hair, tilted back as his
steady gray eyes looked up at Stan
ton.
“ You? You couldn’t crank a taxi
cab,” flung the racer, brutal with dis
appointment and wrath. "You'd go?
A boy?”
“ Ira as old as the driver of the
Singer car, and scant five years young
er than you—I’m twenty-one,” flashed
the retort. “ And I know all there Is
about gasoline cars.
I guess you’re
big enough to crank your own motor
aren’t you. If I can’t? You’ve got
thirty seconds left; do you want me?’’
Met on his own tone, Stanton
gasped, then caught his mask from
the man who held It.
"Why don’t you get on your
clothes?" he demanded savagely.
"Are you going to race like that?
Jump, you useless cowards there—
can’t you pass him his things? Tele
phone the stand that I’m coming, some
one.”
There was a wild scurry of prepara
tion, the telephone bell jingled madly.
“Je8 Floyd Is one of our new factory
men," hurried Mr. Green, in breathless
explanation, as Stanton took his seat.
"He’s a gas-engine wonder—he knows
them like a clock—he tuned up this
car you’ve got, this morning—”
The klaxon brayed again. A trim ap

f
The sharp crack of a pistol, the fall
of a flag, and the whole struggling,
flaming flock sprang forward toward
the first turn, wheel to wheel In
death-edged contest. And Stanton for
got his mechanician.
The Mercury led the first circuit, as
usual. It was very fast, and Its pilot
look the chances more prudent drivers
avoided. Still, the lead was less than
the car’s own leugth, two of Its closest
rivals hanging at Its flanks, when they
passed the tumultuous graud-stund.
Just ahead lay again the “death
curve." There was a swift movement*
beside Stanton, the pendent linen
streamers floating from his cap were
deftly seized and the dust swept from
his goggles with a practiced rapidity.
“ Car on each side an' one trying to
pass,” the clear voice pierced the
hearing. “ No room next the fence.”
Stanton grunted. The boy knew
how to rise In a speeding machine,
then, and how to take care of his
driver, he noted. Nevertheless, he
meant to take that fence side.
And he did. As the other drivers
shut off power to take the dangerous
bend more slowly, Stanton shot for
ward at unchanged speed, cut in ahead
and swept first around the turn, tak
ing the inside curve. The spectators
rose with a universal cry of consterna
tion; the Mercury swerved, almost
facing the infield fence, skidding ap
pallingly and lurching drunkenly on
two wheels, then righted itself under
the steering-wheel in the master’s
hands, and rushed on, leading by a
hundred feet.
The people cheered frantically, the
band crashed Into raucous innslej
Stanton’s mechanician got up to lean
over the back of the flying car and
feel the rear casings.
“ You're tryin’ to tires,” he Imparted,
his accents close to the driver’s ear.
That was the first time that Stanton
noticed that Floyd lisped and blurred
his final “g” in moments of excite
ment. It might have sounded effemi
nate, If the voice had not been with
out a tremor. As it was—
At the end of the first hour, the
bulletin boards showed the Mercury
five laps ahead of its nearest rival.
And then Floyd spoke again to his
driver.
“ What?” Stanton questioned, above
the noise Qf the motor.
“ We’ve got to run In; I’m afraid of
the rear Inside shoe. It won’t staud
another skid like the last.”
Stanton's mouth shut in a hard
line.
“ I will not," he stated. “Get back
in your place. You can’t tell."
“ I can.”
Stanton deigned no reply, sliding
