Holmes, lionaire director of the Boston Mu- {seum of Fine Arts, $95,000, it has | |become known police investigation into the so-called an- mil- as result of tique china racket. [ Police believed today that this discovery had led them onto a side trail of the “rare china” fraud ex- posed recently with the arrest of Mrs. Clementine Briggs Doran, al- legedly one of threc conspirators in a scheme that duped Clinton I. Nash, local collector, of more than $50,000 for bogus ILowestoft china of the Van Rensselaer ‘period. Supposed to Be Rarities The paintings which cost Holmes 1 895,000 were two represented as by Cima De Conegliano and a “Por- ! trait of a Man” which was sold as a genuine Velasquez. The Cima De Coneglianos were bought in Italy, one of them through a New York dealer whose name has been kept secret even from District | Attorney William J. TFoley. They were about six by seven inches in |size and cost Holmes $35,000. On |arrival here they were pronounced | fakes almost immediately and ship- ped back to Italy. A substitution of payments was made and Holmes veceived the “Velasquez” for $95.- 000. The latter portrait hung in the Boston Musum of Fine Arts uptil experts decided that, while it was lundoubtedly an old painting that had been retouched, the Spanish master had nothing to do with its execu- tion. 1t was understood that the district attorney and detectives working on he frauds would interview BEd- ward F. Clorine, Boston art dealer, reimbursed $32,000 Friday which he had paid for a “work of art” he re- | ceived through Clorine. Buffalo Museum Involved District Attorney Foley said he |also expected a t from Curator | William M. Hekking of the Buffalo | Museum of Fine Arts.
