PEARL NECKLACE MYSTERY.
THE THIRD DEGREE. TKIED ON TEE CONSIGNOR. (Received 8 a.m.) LONDON, August 4. The ''Daily Telegraph's" Paris correspondent telegraphs that the magistrates and police continue to cross-question M. Salomon, consignor of the stolen necklace, for hour.-. They endeavoured to trap him several times. The authorities refuse to admit the possibility of the Paris registered letter department being guilty. The "Matin" states that a representative of Lloyds offered a Parisian barrister £60,000 sterling to find the necklace. The barrister visited M. Salomon, and offered him £20.000. M. Salomon was indignant, and informed the police. Mr. Mayer, to whom the necklace was sent, states that he had known M. Salomon for twenty years, and suspicions of his honesty were absolutely untenable. Members of the wholesale trade in Paris agree that M, Salomon is above suspicion. English detectives are of opinion that the robbery was committed during the two hours the parcel was lying in the Paris post office.
