Old Newspaper Files.
10 the Editor Of The Star:


Through the courtesy of the superin-
tendent of the general reading room OF
the Congressional Library l was per-
mitted the other day to spend a number
of hours in that portion of the building
where are stored the bound volumes Of

ciated. the newspapers would be read and
preserved with a greater care than at

3 One of the interesting features re-
fiected is the line of advertisements car
ried in the early days of the city. The
names of firms, the character of the busi-
ness prosecuted. the special inducements
offered to traders, the prices then as COM
pared with present rates, are all worthy
of study.
T. The hand-to-hand struggle for the
means Of living, especially the .prioes Of
grains. meats, groceries. etc. did not
absorb as much attention as at present.
Trusts and combines, sypdicates and
monopolies did not play as conspicuous
a part in the public affairs OF the people
as they do in these latter days.

he had no comment TO make on the case

Ben Duveen Surprised.

Ben j. Duveen was in the place at the
time and he was placed under arrest, the
warrant being read to him by Mr.. Wem-
pie. He expressed establishment at the
visit of the federal officers, not having
been told of the warrant for his arrest
until the examination OF the stock of the
place had been finished.
Mr.. Duveen was taken to the federal
building, where he was at once arraigned
before Commissioner Shields on the
charge in connection with the three vases
imported which form the basis of the
complaint. The seriousness Of the situa-
ton then seemed to dawn upon MIR.
Duveen for the first time. and he grew
pale and nervous, seeming not to cOmpre-
bend fully all that had happened.
Mr.. Wise appeared before the commits
Sioner personally in behalf of the govern
ment. and after explaining the charge at
some length declared that It was the big
geSt case by far that the government
ever had to handle in his recollection
that the amount involved probably would
reach 81 ,OODOOO. and might exceed 1t, and
he asked that heavy bail be named for
the art dealer.
Mr.. Duveen then pleaded that further
action in the matter be deferred until he
could communicate with his counsel. and
he telephoned for William H. Corbitt of
the law firm Of Corbitt & Stern. with
offices at 60 Wall street.
Nr. Corbitt opposed the request of Mr..
Wise that bail be 100000. After some
argument the commissioner decided
$4,000 would be enough, and this was
furnished by Mr. Corbitt. who offered his
home and other real estate as security.
Mr. Duveen asked permission to send
wireless message to Henry J. Duveen,

nue. were made and the representatives
of both branches of the government ar
rived there yesterday evening with a
search warrant in their possession. This
had been granted by Commissioner Shields
on representations made to him by Will
liam L. Wemple, an assistant of Mr..
Wise, who was placed in charge of the
case. Mr.. Loeb had detailed Edwin R.
Norwood. acting deputy surveyor of the
port to cooperate with Mr.. Wemple.
When they arrived at the place they
had with them a large furniture van which
was backed UP to the door All the officials
went through the premises. and one ar
ticle after another was checked off the
list and put aside. After the men had
worked for some time 1T was discovered
that the van at the door would not con-
tain more than a fraction of the goods
called for in the list, and when this fact
was communicated to Mr.. Wise and Mr..
Loeb they ordered that the entire con-
tents of the place be seized, and this was
done.
Mr.. Norwood placed two of his GUS

Says he Has Evidence.

Mr.. Wise said he was in possession of
sufficient evidence to support his allega-
tons and that at the proper time it would
be produced.
There are five Duveens named in the
specifications made by the federal au-
thorities Charges of fraud, collision.
conspiracy and of other kinds abound in
the documents in the case and the charge
also is made that United States foreign
consular office Is involved in the alleged
deception, for there is frequent reference
to false consular invoices in the pa
pers.
In addition to the Duveens another per-
son is involved in the charges, but Mr..
Wise last night refused to reveal the
name of this person, saying the publica-
ton of the name at this time might de-
feat the ends Of justice. but that the per-
son referred to would not be able to es-
cape the constant scrutiny of the officials
and would be brought to account at the
proper time II was from this person that
a considerable part of the information
concerning the alleged fraudulent impor-
tations was obtained. and it was upon
this information that the investigation
leading up to the arrest was made.
