Geneva, March 17-(B~y A.P.)
-"A swindle without prece-
dent", is the verdict just pro-
nounced by a Geneva court in ac-
counting for the disappearance of
the Hapsburg's crown jewvels.
Baron Stiener, a id-de-campx to
whom they were last intrusted
found himself beset with credit-
ors soon after the royal couple
had failed to regain the throne.
He negotiated with a trio of in-
ternational jewelers and sold the
jewels for which hie received
300,000 francs on account. They
passed over the border to Swit-
zerland and the Baron has re-
ceivedl not a sou of the balance
nor has he been able to locate the
gems, the jewelers declaring
they have been swindled b~y go-
betweens.
