BURGLARS AT WORK.
TWO RAIDS IN WELLINGTON JEWELLERY" AND WEARING APPAREL SECURED. (Pep. United Press Association.) WELLINGTON, Juno 20. A largo quantity of jewellery constituted the haul made In- burglars, who entered the promises of T. Sternberg, second, hand dealer, in Manners street. A jemmy appears to have been the instrument used to force an entrance through the hack door, and the marauders lost no time in collecting as much jewellery as could be conveniently carried in an attache case, of which they took possession. Valuable rings and watches quickly changed hands, and the burglars decamped undetected. It is understood that the value of the missing property is approximately £IBO. Burglars also stole about £.150 worth of men’s wearing apparel from the rooms of G. T. Nation, merchant service outfitter, of Featherston street, one evening this week.
