The Diamond Gang (1911)
The story begins with the receipt of a telegram by the chief of police telling him to search for three men, Jake Samuel, Jack Laclede and William Morrows, suspects in the Norcross diamond robbery. A young detective, Philip Bowen, is assigned to the case and after a search locates Jake Samuels, a diamond importer, supposedly, in a city office building. Disguised as the janitor, he overhears the conversation between the crooks and is about to make the arrest when the thieves apprehend him and gagging him and tying him to a chair, leave him in the office while they hurriedly leave with the loot. With some difficulty Bowen slips off his gag, edges over to the 'phone and calls the chief. A squad of police, accompanied by Bowen, are soon in pursuit and a chase begins. The pursuers finally gaining upon them, the thieves desert their auto and take refuge in a deserted barn, where they fire on the police until their ammunition is exhausted. The capture is then easily effected and the three crooks dragged off to the police station.
