JEWEL ROBBERY.
CHARGE AGAINST WOMEN. LONDON, Jan. 4. Marion Cooper, who was arrested at Liverpool a few days ago, was charged at the Old Bailey, under the name of Jessie Rubin, together with her sister, Sarah Kornbluth, with receiving £20,000 worth of jewellery, knowing it to have been stolen. The prosecution alleged that three men had entered Sirs Hesketh Wright’s flat in Park Lane, London, and that one of them, at the point of a revolver, had forced her to hand over the jewellery. Janies Hynes had since been committed for trial on a charge concerned with the robbery. Rubin had been friendly with Hynes, and the police, it was stated, had ascertained that she had deposited the whole of the stolen jewellery in a safe deposit at Liverpool two days after the robbery. She later made a statement that she had acted at the request of Hynes. The two women were committed for trial.
