ket to-day was reactionary on n decreased

character of the operations, to which at
tention has been repeatedly called, was

developments of the day liked to the
advantage of the bears. The market
opened with Reading scoring an excep-
tional decline of l 1-S per cent After
brief interval prices steadied, but re-
newed pressure forced general declines
ranging from 1-2 to 2 12 per cent. in the
active list, the last in Tobacco, and Chi
cago Gas lost an early gain of point.

Members of Large Diamond Importing
Firm Under Arrest.
STEAMSHIP CAPTAIN ALSO INVOLVED
Says He is an Innocent Party to the
Fraud IL One Has Been Com.
mittcd-Rcsult OF Patient
Work.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb 15.--The arrest
early this week OF Captain Loeswitz OF tho
passenger steamer Rhlneland. charged with
smuggling package containing over $4,000
worth of diamonds, has exposed one Of tho
most gigantic smuggling schemes ever un-
earthed in this country. Captain Loeswltz,
who has been released under $4,000 bonds,
asserted that the package was given him
by Herman Krek of Cincinnati for safe
keeping and that he had no knowledge Of It's
valuable contents when he started to bring
1t ashore from the steamer and was ar
rested, though he admits having carried over
many similar packages for Krek, who
usually gave them to him at Antwerp.
Herman Krek was placed under arrest
today, charged with smuggling and is held
under $4,000 bail. Krek was passenger
from Antwerp on the steamer Aller which
arrived at New York on Friday. Herman
Krek Is member OF the firm Of Coeterman.
Henrichs & Krek of Cincinnati. one of the
biggest diamond cutting and dealing estab-
lishments in the country. The customs on
GERS here and at New York assert that
Krek's arrest will result in breaking up ono
of tho biggest diamond smuggling conspira-
cies ever known in the United States.
Charles Hess of New York. counsel for
the Diamond Importers Protective associa-
tion. held conference with District Attor-
ney Ingham today prior to the warrant being
issued for Krek's arrest. He claimed that
his firm paid over 80 per cent of the diamond
duties of the country, while Kreks only paid
small portion of the remainder, and yet
the latter firm absolutely controlled the dia-
mond trade of the United States. so that the
smaller importers were frozen out. Hess
claimed that Krek's firm was rated at $10, 900
two years ago, when the duty on diamonds
was 10 per cent Since 1t was raised to 25
per cent the firm rating had increased to
100000
Mr.. Hess stated that special treasury agents
in Europe and agents in this country had
tracked Krek on his various visits, and
United States District Attorney Ingham
stated to reporter of the Associated press
that Mr.. Krek not held on mere sus-
pcion, but that a very strong case would
be made out against him when he had his
hearing on March IS. The delay is occa-
stoned by the absence Of Captain Loeswitz,
who was allowed to take his vessel OH an
other voyage and who will not return to
this port until the middle of March,
