Tells of $6,000,000 Deal.
new YORK, April 17.—A $6,000.-
000 transaction, the details of which
remain strangely un xplained, is at
the bottom of the mysterious disap
pearance in London, on April 3, of
Joseph Wilberforce Martin, the Mem
phis millionaire, according to N. Hill
Martin, his brother, who sailed for
England on the Campania after
spending the day at the Waldor.-As
toria.
He declared that his brother on
April 3 sent the family a cable mes
sage saying that he had that day
closed a deal involving the sale of
60,000 acres of cot,ton land in Ar
kansas and Tennessee, valued at
more than $100 an acre, to an Eng
lish syndicate.
Deal Made Through Agents.
It was understood that the deal
was made through his agents, Bou-
sted & Anderson, a London broking
and banking firm.
"That night,” he said. "Joe disap
peared."
Then l.e told how J. Lockhart An
derson, a member of the banking
firm, had been the family's only
source of information since his broth
er's disappearance, but declared An
