He oven entered into negotiations with antique deaters in Frankfort and New York with regard to their ultimato disposal. Finally, with his wife and Chevasson, he set out for Indo-China. When he landed at Saigon the police, who had boga warned, placed at hie, dis- posal a group of natives, caton- Bibly to afford the travellers pro- teotion, but in reality to watch their doings. After several days' search in the region of Angkor, the party found a temple which appeared to be suitable for their designs a number of bas-rollofa were broken and the most romark- able removed. They prepared to leave Indo-China, but, fearing arrest at Saigon, endeavoured to oscape by way of Slam. They were, however, arrested at the frontier, and the statuetios and bas-reliefs, worth more than a E. of Bossin million franos, WATO seized. Charged with theft before the tribunal of Prom-Panb, Malraux was soutenood to three years' im- prisonment and Chevasson to oightoon months.
