Special to the Register from New York details a dramatic Brooklyn burglary. A jewelers storefront, brightly lit and uncurtained, faced entrenched security, yet intruders bored six holes in a massive safe containing $60,000 in gems and valuables and carried away about $5,000 in watches after taking a smaller wall safe. Authorities voice doubt about capture amid claims of a historic criminal echo and a long-gestating memorial project for A. T. Stewart. The piece also lampoons urban reform, church and civic figures, and a parade of odd anecdotes.
