Especial to The Times-pispatcn.l

New York, July S.-As a result of
the testimony given by Mrs. Helen
Dwelle Jenkins Friday, and to be con-
tinued Monday. covering gigantic
conspiracy to defraud the government
of duty on Jewels, which was revealed
TO her when the companion of Nathan
Allen, the indictment OF two million
aires by the Federal grand jury be-
fore the middle of the week is said to
be certain.
This information comes from a high
authority. and 1t also is known that
the United States district attorney al
ready is satisfied that convictions can
be obtained. even If the investigation
went no further.
While other indictments may be ex-
pected to follow. the first two will in
volve the millionaires whose names
have been SO completely linked with

The indictments in this case are be
