LADIES LOSE FUR COATS.
| CUT FROM THEIR BACK. DARING LONDON THEFTS. London, Dec. ]O. Fashionable ladies are being terrorised by a novel form of theft, valuable fur coats being cut off their backs while they are gazing in West End shop windows. Several cases have occurred in Regent Street, where ladles have been robbed while standing at crowded shop windows, looking at the fashions, the deed being so cleverly done that the victims were not aware of their loss.
One lady reached home, and feeling cold, only then discovered that £4OO worth of furs had been cut out of the back of her coat.
