Associated Press1

NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-The entire
Fifth avenue establishment of the five
Duveen brothers, known the world
over as dealers in rare art objects and
antiquities, was seized by federal Of
ficers today. Henry ]. and Benjamin
D. Duveen, two of the firm, were
placed under arrest charged with con-
spiracy to defraud the government out
of customs dues.
Henry A. Wise, United States dis
trict attorney, in asking for extraor-
dinarily heavy bail, 100000, in the
case of Benjamin Duveen, said he had
evidence that the frauds would reach
more than $1,000.000 and that all four
brothers and an uncle, who make uE
the firm, are implicated.
Bail was finally fixed at $4,000, which
was given.
Henry j. Duveen was arrested on
the liner Lusitania when the vessel
reached quarantine late tonight. He
was taken off on a revenue cutter and
hurried to the federal building for ar
raignment. 4
A search for undervalued articles be-
gan and more than van load OF
suspicious" goods was found. 1t was
then decided to place the entire es-
tablishment under surveillance and
leave the customs inspectors in charge
for the night.
$4,000 BAIL BOND
When Benjamin Duveen was taken
before United States Commissioner
Shields District Attorney Wise said
the case was the most important the
government has had thus far to deal
With in connection with importation
frauds. He said information was re-
Gently placed in his possession tending
to show that the Duveens for years
had been defrauding the government
out of customs duties on imported
owrks of art and antique furniture
by means of false consular invoices.
The records at the customs house
were hurrledly overhauied and seemed
to substantiate the charges. Mr.. Wise
declined to give out the name Of his
informant tonight. Mr.. Wise said that
while the complaint was based on the
illegal entry of three vases, the gov
ernment was in possession of many
fraudulent importations. He added
that the consular invoice gave the
value of the three vases as $1107, while
their real value was $4,000.
The firm of Duveen brothers is COM
posed of Henry J., Joel j., Louis j.,
Benjamin J. and Joseph j. Duveen.
They have establishments in New
York, London and Paris.
Bail in the case of Henry ]. Duveen,
the uncle, has been fixed at $4,000,
which was given.

BULLOCK MINE
TO START WORK
Negotiating for Compressor
and Rump-0re in
Shaft.

joe Bullock OF Provo. one or the
directors OF the Bullock mine at Tintic.
was in Salt Lake yesterday. and says
that the intention is to start up opera
lions at the mine this fall. Mr.. Bullock
was the discoverer OF this mine in 1884.
twenty~six years ago. He still has great
faith in its possibilities. At present
there IS about fifteen feet of water in
the mann shaft, which has depth or
225 feet. =. II. Bullock is manager
OF the company. He is now negotiating
for tha purchase OF a compressor and
pump of sufficient capacity TO take
care OF the present water flow and any
which is likely soon TO be encountered
In tho mine. There is a good gasoline
hoist out on the ground now. When
the water was struck and the men
driven out of the shaft, they had a face
of three and a half feet OF fine ship
ping ore. The intention is 10 let
contract for perhaps 20 to 100 feet OF
work. which, with the AID of the pump,
should at least place the Bullock prop
erty on self-sustaining basis. Some
time ago an assessment was levied o.
the company with these contemplated
improvements as the object.

rich gold ore from his lease on the

", Reuben Dewitt has just reached
salt Lake and expects TO carry back
with him close to $1,000 as the net
returns from this shipment OF only 20
tons. The ore runs $500 10 the ton. The
ear is now at the Utah Ore Sampilng
companys works.
AS Mr.. Dewitt has but a s0-day
lease on the claim, and that expires
November "A. he is making extraordin-
airy efforts to get every pound OF ore
possible out OF the ground before the
expiration of the time. He is accord
1ngly employing every man he can
work to advantage on the ground. Open
cuts are being made and S0-foot
tunnel is being driven. which has cut
the vein at IS feet depth. Here the
rich streak is found to have widensd
out 10 10 10 inches. On the cliff above
IL was only four or five inches thick.
The vein at Is feet depth is four feet
across, with porphyry walls. The rich
streak will run from $4,000 to SIS, zoe;
the rest of tho veing running from $40
to 500 and 500 to the ton, says Mr..
Dewitt. He made the discovery on
September I. and expects to get q
small fortune out OF his lucky find be-
fore the expiration of his option.

COLONEL DORSEY
RETURNS FROM CONGRESS

Colonel George W. r. Dorsey of the
IHermOuntain Securities company has
returned home from Los Angeles. where
ne went as a delegate from Utah 10
the American Mining congress. The
colonel was chairman OF the commit
tee on resolutions, and spenE several
exceedingly strenuous days at the con-
gress. There were 500 10 zoo members
in attendance. The colonel says the
Utah delegation had a hard time TO
secure the honor for this state or pres
ident OF the congress, but the entire
difficulty lay in securing Mt. Dern's
consent 10 accept the position. II is
the intention OF the Utah members OF
the congress 10 use every effort TO
make Utah's membership in the Organt-
zation as strong II not stronger than
that OF any other state AS 10 the vast
benefits OF such an organization 10 the
mining interests OF the entire inter
mountain region. no mining man who
had looked into the workings OF the
congress viii gain say. The colonel
agrees with President Dern that the
Utah membership should include every
mine superintendent and mining opera
tor in the state. and should reach 800
before the next congress cOnvenes. The
establishing OF permanent headcuar-
ters in salt Lake is only one or the
numerous aceruing benefits.

HIGHER METAL
PRICES PREDICTED
CBy Badger Bros Private wire.)

(By Badger Bros. Private Wfre.)
New York Oct. s-The rise in the
stock market received a check by
bankers early In the week. especially
in the high priced or leading securItles
and undoubtedly this was done as
result of the banking situation here,
which at the moment will not allow
any expansion OF loans for spscula-
tive purposes. The. reaction, however
was comparatively Small In the later
dealings of the week. the volume Of
business has dwindled TO very small
proportions as a result of a lack Of
interest by insiders, who would rather
see marking time process IN the stock
market, temporarily at least. There has
been very little news bearing on the
worthy of comment as a market fac
tor.
The excellent crop returns for the
season OF year have been instrumental
in creating a fair amount OF business
throughout The country, and with the
passing of election day 1t would appear
that confidence will in a measure be
restored and a greater volume OF trade
be seen.
The monthly steel tonnage report
due next Monday is expected to show
a decrease for September business os
about 800. 600 tons. but steel trade
authorities believe that the turn of the
corner is not far off and big bust
ness will be booked from railroads
before the end of the year.
We are looking for stock market
stability in the immediate future, with
the probability OF higher prices toward
the close OF the month";. f. Hutton

TlNTIC ACTIVITY
WITH GRATIFYING RESULTS

Progress is now being made in many
OF the Tintic properties, notably that
OF Eagle & Blue Bell, on which the
shaft is reaching the ], 900 level.
Arthur L. Grfffiths and James Nc
Cune have returned from a trip TO the
Goshen Queen property, which they de-
clare is one of the most prOnij sing
pieces Of ground in the district. There
has been $50 feet OF development work
done on the property. The main tunnel
Is now IN a distance or 350 feet and II
will be pushed ahead 100 feet to get
into blow out, says the Eureka Re
porter.
The winze that is being sunll in the
cave recently encountered in the Utah
Consolidated ground is now down about
so feet. Superintendent Mattb ews says
that the winZe is heading for I he cross
ing OF an east-west and ne rth-south
fissure. The showing he says could
hardly be more encOurag 1ug, as the
quartz and manganese encountered are
indicative OF the presence OF an ore
body.
With force of two shifts at work,
good progress is being made in the

well-mineralized ground coming in.
An upraise has beer. started between
the two levels. This, il is believed,

Machinery Is now arriving and being

property. Three carloads more, IL IS
believed will be. within two or three
days The steel for the shaft house is
also arriving.
AT the Tintic Central the shaft is now
down 500 feet. and Manager Hathaway
declares that some good manganese
quartz is being pushed through. This.
he says, he believes is the Gaping of
the COloradO-S 81 ouX-IrOn Blossom ore.
The water on tile S50-foot level has now
drained off. ard the shaft is dry. The
management expects no more trouble
from this source. Between the 1000
