ART DEALERS PAY TOO
BIG PRICES FOR WORK

NEW YORK, March 9.-FrOm the
friends of Theron ]. Blakeslee il was
learned that his suicide in his own art
gallery on saturday night had much
deeper significance than Was at first
supposed. Additional reasons for his
untOward act were given Sunday.
A poll of the various art dealers and
buyers in New York city disclosed the
fact that the general art market is
suffering the most drastic slump that
has been known in many years Pre-
dictions that several other Of the larg-
est art concerns in the city would
share in the immediate future the fate
of Moulton and Ricketts, and that OF
the Blakeslee firm will be heard on
every side.
THE cause of all this said q well
known art authority, Lies in the SIM
pie fact that the art market has been
highly inflated and is now failing to
normal point. MilliOnaires with
fabulous sums to spend have bought
works of art far beyond their worth.
Two of the most famous Of these are
dead, and three or four of the others
have reached their limit.
Scores of dealers, insane for the
moment and thinking that this unnat-
ural condition would last always, nave
bought far beyond their means. Their
pictures are now on their hands and
they cannot dispose of them today nor
will they be able to dispose of them to-
morrow"
