What appeared to be an attempt on the premises of Bensons, Ltd., Ludgate Hill jewelers, was abandoned after several hours laborious work the other night. Disguised as railroad porters the thieves broke into the shop of a tobacco dealer and into a passage at one end of which was the jewelry store. After cutting the panel out of a door they were confronted by a thick wall. Other attempts to get into the jewelry shop having failed they decamped leaving behind jimmies and screwdrivers and taking with them some watches and minor articles of jewelry obtained from the neighboring shop of a firm of watch importers. Bensons have a very valuable stock of high class jewelry at their establishment.
