The Daily Telegraph's Paris correspondent states : The magistrates and police continued to cross-question Salomons, the consignor of the missing necklace, for hours, and endeavoured to trap him several times, the authorities refusing to admit the possibility that the Paris registeredletter department was guilty/'
Le Matin states that Prince, representing Lloyds, offered a Parisian barrister £60,000 to find the necklace. The barrister visited Salomons and offered him £20,000. Salomons was indignant, and informed the police. Mayer, the consignee, states that he has known Salomons for twenty years, and the suspicion in regard to his honesty is absolutely untenable. Members of the wholesale trade in Paris agree that Salomons is above suspicion.
English detectives, are of the opinion that the robbery took place during the two hours the parcel was lying in the Paris Post Office.
