New York. June 9.-Upon the artis-

wife of an American airman. II II
was Da Nincis wont to stand off from
his still wet canvases and. with his

that Sir Joseph Duvcen will have to pay

jury.
At present several lawyers and art
dealers are hustling hither and yon
over Europe inspecting Da NirciS with
magnitying glasses and the apparatus
of the finger -lrint expert. In fact. Il
Erenrhman who knows all about the
Bcrtilon system of identification by
finger prints is with the party. These
cunning investigators nre working in the
interests of Stanchticld & Levy, coun-
