Jewels lost by Mrs. Edwin Knopf of Fifth avenue while she was returning from a honeymoon in Europe have been found and returned to her, detectives reported.
NEW YORK, October 30 (AP). - Jewels valued at between $50,000 and $60,000, which were lost by Mrs. Edwin Knopf of Fifth avenue while she was returning last week from a honeymoon in Europe, have been found and returned to her, detectives reported today.
Mrs. Knopf missed the jewels when she debarked from the steamship Cont Rosso upon its arrival from Europe. The jewels were in a handbag which became separated from the rest of the baggage. It was learned today the handbag had been placed by mistake on a Furness-Bermuda liner and the jewels were taken to Cuba and back before being returned to their owner.
