Debriefing ft Tuesday ‘April 1 Czar's jewels go back to Russia Houston museum still waiting for word of exhibit's return State WASHINGTON (AP) — The czars’ jewels went back to the Russ ian Embassy on Monday after a two-week standoff had kept them locked in a vault at the Corcoran Gallery of Art. There was still no word whether the jewels of the Romanov dynasty would continue on to Houston, the next stop in a planned seven-city American tour, or return to Russia. The Houston museum said it heard the dispute was over and that the jewels would come to Texas. But in Washington, Mikhail Gusman of the Russian committee that organized the tour, said: “There is no agreement yet on whether the exhibit will go to Houston or beyond.” Lawyers for the two sides remain in meetings trying to work out a deal. A Corcoran official, speaking only on condition of anonymity, said the deal being hammered out at a Washington hotel might result in sending the jewels to Houston but to no other American sites. ► This day in history Today is Tuesday, April 29, the 119th day of 1997. There are 246 days left in the year. On this date: In 1429, Joan of Arc entered the besieged city of Or leans to lead a victory over the English. In 1916, the Easter Rising in Dublin collapsed as Irish nationalists surrendered to British authorities. In 1945, American soldiers liberated the Dachau concentration camp; that same day, in a Berlin bunker, Adolf Hitler married Eva Braun and designated Admiral Karl Doenitz his successor. In 1946, 28 former Japanese leaders were indicted as war criminals. In 1974, President Nixon announced he was releas ing edited transcripts of secretly made White House tape recordings related to the Watergate scandal. In 1983, Harold Washington was sworn in as the first black mayor of Chicago. The diamonds, mbies, court vest ments and paintings—including the most extensive collection of crown jewels ever to leave Russia — were due to open in an exhibit at the Hous ton Museum of Fine Arts on May 11. Future scheduled showings in cluded Memphis, Tenn., and San Diego. Three more sites were be ing negotiated. But when the exhibit closed April 13 at the Corcoran in downtown Washington, a dispute surfaced be tween Russian authorities and the American Russian Cultural Cooper ation Foundation, headed by for mer Rep. James W. Symington. The Russian Embassy demanded that the whole exhibit be returned. “It’s all about money,” said one Corcoran official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. For a week, cars from the Russian Embassy blocked a truck loaded with part of the exhibit, including gowns, icons, paintings, church vestments and other relics of the Romanov em pire that ruled Russia for 304 years. After a week’s negotiations, during which the Russians complained about the truck being left on the street in Washington’s wet spring weather, the truck went back to the embassy. Levy said he would hold on to the jewels — locked in his museum’s vault—until the parties could reach agreement or a court issued an order. On Monday afternoon, two Brinks trucks pulled into the Corco ran’s back yard and Levy supervised the loading of five cases of jewels and two more cases of equipment. “Wonderful as these objects are,” he told reporters, “they pack up in pretty small crates.” During the exhibit’s 10 weeks at the Corcoran, 80,000 visitors came to see such items as a rattle set with emeralds, rubies and dia monds made for the son of Catherine the Great. None of the items had ever been seen in the United States be fore, including the 70 jewels and uncut gems of the Romanovs, who ruled until 1917. In 1992, deadly rioting that claimed 54 lives and caused $1 billion in damage erupted in Los Angeles af ter a jury in Simi Valley acquitted four Los Angeles po lice officers of almost all state charges in the video taped beating of Rodney King. ► Today's birthdays Poet Rod McKuen is 64.
