LOO Marine Drawings
Shown at Galleries Here
Works of Early English and
Dutch Artists Represent
Rare TYNE of Art

More than hundred original draw
ings of naval and marine subjects by
famous eafiy English and Dutch ar
lists are exhibited at the American
Art Galleries. V. Winthrop Newman,
of London and New York, member of
the British Society for Nautical Re-
search, has assembled them from va
rious nautical collections abroad and
Will offer them for sale at the galleries
tomorrow evening.
The drawings represent type Of art
that of late years hsz become ex-
tremely scarce. The majority are from
the eighteenth century and reveal sub
Jects that offered extreme romance and
fascination. The touch Of the expert is
felt in the authorization of certain ak
amples, which really are fragmentary
studies and sketches, unsigned and
undated. In the mounting great deal
has been added to these pictures.
Often their character is such az to
mako them inconspicuou while their
art qualities are obscured BY the Of
fecta Of time upon the fragility of the
medium. By the use of attractive
French mats the full possibilities Of
the subjects are projected and the
beauty heightened MANIFOLD.
The collection comprises important
examples by Van de Velde, Kobell,
Brooking, Turner. Swaine, Anderson,
Bashuyzen, Duncan. Tobin, Whitcombe,
Rowlandson, Cleverley, Prout, Series
Pocock and Atkins.

Lady Decies Arrives Here
Aboard the Carmania

Lady Dccies,' formerly Miss Vivian
Gould, who on learning of the sudden
death Of her mother, Mrs. George +.
Gould, two weeks ngo, hurried to this
country on the first available steam
ship, arrived here yesterday from
Liverpool on the Cunard liner Car
mania.
She wore heavy mourning and kept
much to herself throughout the run
across the Atlantic. At the pier she
was met by her father and Miss Caro-
line Cortis, friend.
When Lady Decies greeted her
father her only comment was:
How different this Homecoming is
compared with all others
Lady Decies said that her stay here
was indefinite, and that while in this
country she would live with her father.
Lord Decies, she said, would not come
here at this time.
Another traveller on the Carmania
was Fleming Tuckerman, blind poet
and former lawyer OF this city, who
was accompanied by his wife and son.
He said that no cne who had lived in
France and understood the situation
could hesitate in upholding Premier
Brands policy that France should
have the moral support of the Allied
nations against aggre ssion

California "Lost
Papers, Are Sold
Here for $8,450
Fort Sutier Manuscripts,
Long Sought For by Ban
croft, Reported Acquired
for Henry E. Huntington

The famous "lost" papers of Fort
Sutter, Calf, the official records of
the times and events attending the
seizure of California as a part of the
United States, and which were the sub
iect of an unavailing search for more
than half century, were sold by auc-
tion yesterday afternoon at the Ander-
son Galleries for $S,45O to DR.. A. S. W.
dealer. 1t is reported that the docu-
ments were bought on behalf of Henry
E. Huntington and will become part
of his great library at San Marino,
Calf.
The papers are bound in thirty nine
volumes and were published at Suffers
Fort, Sonoma, Yerba Buena, Monterey
and elsewhere during 1S46-1S47. They
include the original manuscript Of
Commodore Sloate's proclamation of
annexation, written on board the
Savannah in Monterey harbor; another
of the appeal for freedom addressed to
Suffer muster rolls and pay rolls in
the manuscript of Kern and Captain
Sutter, Kern's report of his campaign
against the Indians, messages from
Fremont, a collection of hitherto un-
known material relating to the rescue
of the Bonner party and other valuable
papers.
All the manuscripts except one are in
splendid condition. The one is water
or snow stained, the others by their
condition showing the care with which
they were guarded during three trans
continental journeys and which saved
them during the years they were lost.
For years the Sutter papers were
hidden in the recesses of the noun
tains of New Mexico and were the sub
jects Of long search by the historian,
Bancroft, who finally abandoned hope
of their discovery and wrote in his
works that "a veil of mystery shrouded
the events of 1846 and 1S47 in the Sac
ramento Valley" and that very little
was known of affairs at Suffers Fort
during Kern's administration as COM
mander there.
These and other vo1umes sold conf
prised a rare collection of published
matter and manuscripts dealing with
the early West belonging to anony-
nous owners, which brought total Of
$14, 4,575.
