THEFT OF RUGS FROM WOMAN'S BUILDING

(39) The following report from the Supervising Architect on the theft of four rugs from the Woman's Building: April 5, 1930 President David Kinley My Dear President Kinley: Some time between 3:40 and 9:50 p.m. February 3 last, four rugs disappeared from the Upper Parlors of the Woman's Building. Their dimensions were as follows:

8^x 12 10 x 13K 4x8 5KxnM

These rugs were, I think, purchased in 1913, and cost us about $400. I say about, because there is a little doubt as to the descriptions of certain of the rugs. They have had pretty heavy wear, and the $yi x i i K runner was in bad condition. W e have spent in the last two years $150 in repairs on the twelve rugs which we had over there. Thefinancialloss therefore is not very great. On February 4, the local police departments and the Sheriff's office were notified and given a description of the rugs. On the 5th, we sent men to Mattoon and Decatur to present the case to the police departments there, and on the 6th, sent men to Danville, Kankakee, and Bloomington, and communicated with the Sheriffs' offices in McLean, Piatt, and Ford counties. In all of these cases an offer of $50 was made for evidence that would result in the locating of the rugs. Since that time various local characters have been investigated, and in making a survey of the rooming houses the representatives of the Dean of M e n have kept on the look-out for these rugs. W e rugs I donow think it advisablehave been for years. For better identification of the have which welower have, theyare going to have them photographed. prices on Oriental are not now than we to attempt to replace these rugs, tho not gotten any clues.
