Attorney Max Adelson the plmnlnf's attorn is Beautiful Russian Held In Sale of Fake China Antiques Boston, Oct. 21.—(UP)—The ar- rest of Mrs. Clementine Briggs Doran of Smiths Ferry, Holyoke, was believed today to have revealed a swindle running into more than $500,000 in spurious antique china- ‘ware, Mrs. Doran, a dealer in antiques, was arrested on a secret indictment returned by the Suffolk county grand jury charging her with con- spiracy in the defrauding of Clinton 1. Nash, Boston collector of antiques, of $51,226 through false Lowestoft china of the Van Rensselaer period Bhe was arrested in Holyoke last night. Officers who made the arrest said they recognized Wilbur J, Cooke, New York collector named in a con- spiracy indictment, and Mrs. E. E. Caroline Saunders, thought to be of New York, who is wanted also, es- caping through a window as the policemen approached Mrs. Doran's house. Mrs. Doran’s bail was set at $100,000. She claimed to have been only Mrs. Saunders’ secretary and to know nothing of the alleged swindles which are said to have fleeced col- lectors in New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware. New York city detectives are co- operating with local police in an at- tempt to trace the leaders of the supposed “racket,” headquarters of | Wwhich are said to be somewhere on Fifth or Sixth avenues, New York. Boston Police Inspector Warren J. Liese, attached to the bureau of criminal - investigation, was credit- ed with tracing tie source of the alleged swindle. Several months ago he went to New York and discovered that genuine antiques were being duplicated with great skill by artists. Liese interested Edward E. Crown- Inshield, antique expert, who pro- nounced counterfeit the samples sub- mitted to him.

IITQ USE HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS the | he | CLAIN OF FORGERY REJECTED BY COURT Jndge Saxe Files Decision on J. J. Erwin Foreclosure Despite the fact that John J. Lrwin set up the defense that his son, Robert lirwin, forged his father's name to a mortgage note amounting to $3,500 in a recent city court hearing, Judge Morris D. Saxe, who presided, is of the opinion that the signature was placed on the note with the knowledge and consent of the elder Erwin, he paid today in a decision. The suit was a foreclo- sure action of the City National Bank against Erwin place property of John J. Erwin. It was brought out in the testi- mony that the son signed a note on December 28, 1926. According to evidence produced in court President Paul K. Rogers and for- mer Cashier Francis C. Kelly went to Mr. Erwin when information was given them the signature was a for- gery. He is alleged to have said | that whatever the son did was all right with him but in court he de- nied he made this statement. A new note was executed on Feb- ruary 26, 1927, and John Erwin signed this instrument. The court ruled that this was a ratification of | kis prior note and renewals and payments were further proof of his | knowledge of the existence of the note. Judge Saxe placed the amount of ndebtedness at $3,680 and ordered the property foreclosed. The re- demption date will be set upon ap- plication of the counsel in the case. Nair and Nair represented the piaintiff.
