WIDOW MAY GET ESTATE
HELD AS FOE PROPERTY

SAN FRANCISCO, January "A
decision which is expected to result
in a return Of the $7.000.00O estate
of August Sielcken in New York to
the widow Of it's founder, Mrs. Clara
Sielcken, following its seizure by the
alien property custodian during the
war, was handed down in superior
court here.
The court held that Sielcken, known
as the coffee king" had been proved
to have been naturalized in Cali
fornia and ordered the restoration
Of his certificate of citizenship. Du-
plicate papers made out as of the
original date of naturalization are to
be issued and delivered to his widow.
Mrs. Sielcken then plans to demand
the return to her of his estate in this
country. Sielcken died in Baden,
Germany, in 1916.
His executors, seeking to claim the
estate, asserted his certificate of nat
uralization had been lost in a ship
wreck in 1877. The case came up in
the state courts because at the date
Sielcken was naturalized those courts
were performing the duties Of federal
district courts. Sielcken settled In
California in 1857 and spent some
years here before moving to New
York.

ARTIST ARRESTED:
PAINTINGS MISSING
Valentic, Young Protege OF
Baltimore Man, Seized Here,
Denies Thefts.

In a search for four paintings valued
together at ST., 900. which were cut from
their frames in the private Office OF
Nathan ID. Smith, a Baltimore art pa
tron. detectives yesterday arrested in a
studio at West Sixteenth street, Edwin
Irwin Valentic. a young Spanish artist
whom Mr.. Smith had found in a Balti-
more hospital and encouraged to get a
new start in his career.
The paintings, which have not been
recovered, were stolen by a thief who
at the same time forced a strong box in
OF the paintings We're woodland scenes
BY Diaz, valued at $4,000 each; one was
by John S. Constable, the English ar
tist. valued at $4,000, and Sunset" by
George Inness, the early American ar
tist, upon which valuation of $4,000
was placed.
valenuc was arrested by Detectives
Porter and Anderson of the West Twen-
tieth street station. He denied the
charge OF theft when he was arraigned
in Jefferson Market Court. He was held
without bail as fugitive from justice.
The police said that the friendship of
Mr.. Smith for Valentic led him to invite
the young artist into his home, where
valentic, who is described as a pronis-
Ing and even brilliant workman, painted
portraits in oil of both Mr.. Smiths wife
and daughter.
Four months ago. when Valentic was
lying i'll at Baltimore hospital. Mr..
Smiths attention was attracted to him
by persons who spoke highly of the
young mans artistic ability and ex-
pressed confidence in a bright future for
him provided he could obtain the neces-
sary backing. Valentic has studied
abroad and from American tutors, and
when Mr.. Smith talked with him he
found the young artist engaging and
ambitious.
valentics health improved, and he
vent to see Mr. Smith often, and the
latter agreed to help him over the
more thorny places dn his progress
toward fame. The portrait of Mr.. Smiths
daughter was exceptionally happy. and
Mrs. Smith then posed for the befriended
artist. It was said that 1t was with re-
gret that Mr.. Smith asked that a police
search be made for his protege. Accord
ing to the police, Valentic. the four
paintings and the money in the strong
box disappeared simultaneously.
In the studio which Valentic had In
Baltimore were found the portraits Of
Mrs. Smith and her daughter. but the
portrait of Mrs. Smith was disfigured by
a crayon mark across the face.
