Tlie consensus of opinion, however, .u that Mr. Huntington would not In any ease go to England to testify In tha lawault. The price paid hy Mr. Huntington, 1100.000, la considered to be a good price for an authentic half length Kogn ney, but la by no meana a record, full length Romrteys are much admired by nierlcana and as much as 6W,000 has been paid for one of thla artist's work. The painting under dispute, a por trait of Mrs Slddons and her slater, was acquired by Mr. Huntington from l.ewis A Hlmmons In January, 113 This la an old established firm of English art dealers, but the branch establishment at SK7 Fifth avenue, this city, la of com- poratlvely recent date When seen yes- t.rday by a reporter for The Sin Mr. Mlntmons made the following statement explaining hla firm s side of the dispute .."plct.u,..w" "ld .

After the picture wus ! acid It was hung In the Metropolltsn ' Club, In this city, In Mr Huntington's private apartment, and while there wai seen by several well known dealers who I at that time were advising him, and all of whom pronounced very favorably upon the picture.

This firm refused to hang the Romney In Its exhibition. "This poisoned Mr. Huntington's mind and he aaked us to take back the pic ture and return his money. This we re fused to do, assuring him that the pic ture was absolutely us represented, nnd that we could not take back a picture m which a slur had been cast, but we offered to submit It for further examina tion to any expert or experts that Mr. Huntington would name. After thla the 1 picture was sent to England under the direction of the large firm before men- tioned and the matter was placed in 'he hands of lawyers, who began this action. After thla action was brought we had "r u authorities ar.. by way of ar- . the picture examined by the best author- the progreaslve Pcrlmaftcr for ities on Romney In England, and they 'ndlmg the public, the complete vil have pronounced It absolutely genuine.
