W F Galliven, a famed Northwest swindler, was arrested in Portland. He is to be returned to Prosser, Washington, to answer theft charges for two carloads of apples entrusted by a farmers association to sell to Butte wholesalers. He operated sales rooms in Butte and Anaconda before disappearing, and also disposed of a carload of salmon earning a commission from Carlisle Packing of Seattle.
