The offered loan to Dublin is for the reconstruction of the city on plans approved by the Housing and Town Planning Association of Ireland. Late in August John Nolen, of Cambridge, Mass., one of the three adjudicators appointed by the association, approved plans for the rcbuilding of Publin. Thc winning group of plan*, it was announced, emp'nasized a need for new ar.d adequate housing facilities, a new city centre for strett confluence and an cxtensive scheme for the reclama- tion of flatlands from Publin Bay. The plans were sent to Publin in August. The successful architect was awarded a prize of $2,800 by the Earl of Abenlecn, foriacr Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. PRETTY MAN, MIND 0.

FRICK BUYS A RUBENS "Portrait of Spinola" Makes 104th Painting He Has Bought Henry C. Frick haa acquired another^ important old master, Rubens'a "Por- trait of the Matquis Ambrose de Spi- nola," it waa announced yesterday. This is the Arai example of the art af the Flemish master to be obtained by Mr. Frick, whose great collection, which it is understood will some day become the property of the public, now comprises 104 important paintings. It is the second pieture Mr. Frick has acquired in tiie present art season, the other being Rembrandt's "Old Woman Reflecting Over the Lecture," for which he paid $250,000. The F'ubens was sold Mr. Frick by M. Kr.oedler &. Co., who declined to make the price public. Mr. Frick is credited by the art world with having the desire durin,. his lifetime to form the greatest art collection in the United States, one that will eclipse the J. Picrpont Mor¬ gan collection. Th© work by Rubens is an historical portrait of the greatest interest, oe- cause Spinola was the Spanish general who defeated the Dutch and put the; Netherlaada under the Spat.ish yoke. .- the hero of the siege of Breda, which wa« immortali'ed by Vela«quer, rn his maaterpiece, "The _^irrendcr of Breda." now la the Museum of thc Prado, Madnd. Mr. Frick also possesses another highly important historrcal portrait of about the same time, Velpsquea'a por¬ trait 'rf the Emperor Philip IV. has placed the Rubens in his gallery by the side of Rembrandt's portrait of himself. Spinola is presented three-quarters length in a warlike costume. but not in ,.. ),,- __. painted by Rubens in two other portraits still in Kuropean eolleetiona.

SING SING GUN HUNT BEGUN; 6 WEN CAUGHT Easy to Smuggle Wea- pons In, Says One Who Fled Prison 75 INSIDE, HE TELLS CAPTORS Osborne Blames Whitman and Carter for Their "Trifling" While the prison authorities were conducting a rigid investigation to de¬ termine where two of the six prisoner. who eseaped from Sing: Sing on Thurs¬ day obtained revolvera, and from what source they got a change of clorfiing, every available guard and employe was set to work yesterday to ferret out weapons alleged still to be hidden within the penitentiery walla. The hunt began even before the last pf the men had been captured and re¬ turned to the institution. Maurice Curtis, the convict who was shot by Joseph Birdsall. a guard, near I'ocan- tico Hills, said no fewer than aeventy- five revolvers were concealed within the prison. It was Curtis, the man who drove the truck in which the six es¬ eaped, and conceded to be the brains of the gang, who was feared most by th-j guards. Thought He Would Die When he was ehot he thought he had been mortally wounded. "Why didn't you shoot me in the head and have it over?" he asked. Thinking he was anout to die, he readily told the guards the direction taken by his companions. When asked where he had obtained the revolver he asserted it was easy to smuggle weap¬ ons __to the prison. Since the acreens, which formerly separated visitor and prisoner, had been removed, he ex¬ plained, a person coming into the per.i- tentiary could pass anything to a prii- -orrrr. "There are aeventy-five more ln there," he sald, "but you won't find 'em ll the cells." Jay Crowley, asslstant to Acting Warden Calvin Derrick, characterized the report as an absurdity, but admit- tad since the screens have been taken down in the visitors' room strangers might have eluded the watchfulness of the guards on occasions. A month ago, however, it il known Thomas Mott Osborne, then warden, caused an investigation to be mnde when he received a rumor from out¬ side sources that certain prisoners pos- sessed four revolvers. Frank Luti.one of the men who eseaped, was brought before the inmates' court at that tirffe and ordered to tell what he knew of thc whereabouts of the weapons. Convlct Changes Manner When Curtis's injury was dress'd by Dr. Thomas Barry in the nrison hospital and he had been informed it was little more than a flerh wound and would not prove serioU3, the convj-t changed his manner nnd b?camc facctious. Crowley was inelined to believe the escape had been planned on thi *pur of the moment, that the idea was sug- gested by Curtis when he saw the heavy rain and the truck standing le- neath a thed in the north end of the yard. a Curtis has been known to think quickly before. Once, while in Clinton prison, ho saw a claw hammer on a guard's table. He complaincd of hav- ing a Bail in his Bhoe that hurt him. 'Ihe guard handed him the hammer, and that was the last he remembered until he r-gain.-d ronsciousness many hour* later in the prison hospital. < urtis struck hnn over the head, grabbed his revolver and wounded sev¬ erai persons before he was ovtrpow- ared. Mr. Derrick e.pressrd the belief that the escapo had heen planned long be¬ fore it occurrcd. The fact that the men had hlddefl the change of clothing in the tool chest. ** the truck, together with the revolvers, and had stolen the cap worn by William Arison from a I'luird named NelaOfl some time ago ihowed this to be true. he pointed out. I.ivee Credit to Guarda Whea romplimented by James M. < artBr, State Superintendent of Pris¬ ons, on the capture of the men, he said rredit was due ( rowley and the corps of guards. "We have a good force here and there ia nothing wrong with the system," he ._% "All that. is needed is a redis- tribntiOfl ef guards at certain, points A thorough investigation is being mad'* -__ to how the mon obtained the VOapoaa. thia has not been deter¬ mined as yet." Kx -Warden Oiborne, speaking on prieea reform at Hryant Hall, attnb- Bted the escape to the fact that"Super- iritendont < arter and Governor Whit¬ man were trifling with the inrnatea at tl.r- prison." Wbii-i be praised Mr. Derrick and his force f-,r the capture, he said the peo¬ ple of the stay must realixe there wai . groat inrerilive to make a man escape whon h began lO fear "ho won't get a s<_uaic drel."

B. H. Dahlheimer, president of th?

Even after a third bul¬ let had smashed his right shoulder and a fourth had lodged in his chest, Van Dam managed to continue the pursuit ¦mother half block and to empty his irwn revolver before he eollapsed. The shooting, which occurred in Kast Iflfil Street, had been preceded by the arret>t of Benjamin Braehhausen, a striking conductor, of 1883 Lexington Avenue. With his partner, Detective Charles McN'ulty, Van Dam had caught the striker nt N'inety-seventh Street and I/exington Avenue after a street- car had been stoned. Arcompenies Detectives A* the two detectives entered the Kast 10.th Street police station with their prisoner they were accompanied by William Heineman, of 162 East Ninety-seventh Street, a sergeant in Commissioner Woods's new Home De¬ fenee League. A ery of "Stop, thlef!** halted Van Dam and Heineman. A pickpocket ai it then appeared--had been at work in the crowd which had followed Braeh¬ hausen to the station house. Van Dam, turning in time to see an undersiied man breaking out of the throng and raeing eastward, took up the pursuit. So did Heineman. Young- er and fleeter of foot than Van Dam, who is forty, the amateur policeman outstripped the detective. The chase led north on Third Avenue for a block and then east again. The fugitive had increased his lead and was able to dodge into a bicycle »hop nt 24.1 East 105th Street and out again before Heineman came up. Severai other men ran out of the store and blocked the way. One, said by thc po¬ lice to have been Angclo Milone, part owner of the shop, had a revolver. Defenee Sergeant Falls It was at Heineman the first shot was aimed. He ducked, slipped and fell.. Van Dam continued the chase alone, his own revolver drawn. The gunman had followed in the f otsteps of the fugitive friend, racmg east toward First Avenue and firing over his shoulder. Van Dam, with wounds that might have meant instant death to a weaker man, .ot. to the middle of the avenue before his strength gave out. Ho eollapsed on the car track. The gunman and the supposed pick¬ pocket completed their escape before the reserve. began to comb the dis¬ trict for them. According to the po¬ lice. the second man was recognized as Louis Marino, of tU Kast 105th Stre.t. He was charged with having beea an accessory to the shooting. The man who had raised the ery of "Stop. thief!" was not to be found afterward. and the police now believe the trouble in front of the station house may have been a ru<e to give Braehhausen a chance to get away.

HALIFAX DARK; AIR OR U-BOAT RAID IS FEARED Suggestion That Visit by Zeppelin Is Expected MILITARY CHIEFS REFUSE TO TALK People, Promised Light, Startled by Sudden New Order Hslifax, N. B. Oet. 20. All lights,! except a few shaded ones in the west and north ends, have again been or-j dered turned off in the streets of this city at night, and all blinds must be drawn, according to orders just sent out from military headquarters. Whether a visit from a transatlantic Zeppelin or an attack from the sea by enemy warcraft is feared is not known. "The lights will be turned out because the naval and military authorities feel that it is necessary," the only state¬ ment made by headquarters. Citizens who have fretted over the necessity of makiog their way through dimly lit streets were cheered when city officials announced on Thursday that the light would soon be turned on again. but later the military authorities made it known that the resumption of straat li.hting was to be only tempo-1 rary, and that it was for tbe purpose of testing thc visibility of the lights from the sea, the basin and the harbor. To an inquiry as to why the order of "lights out" did not apply to St. John, N. B., as well as to this city, the reply was made at military headquar¬ ters: "Oh, well, you kno* St. John is not as important as Halifax." Paumors in circulation since th- raide of the U-H off Nantucket declared I'-boats intended to carry their warfare to the coasts of Canada. If so, it is thonght Halifax would be the first to suffcr. The first Intimation that German submarines were operating, or intende i to operate, off the Canadian coast was furnished by August Thyssen, the Ger¬ man financier, in an interview on Octo ber 12. In a statement predicting th" renewal of submarine warfare under restricted conditions Herr Thyssen said: "Germany's pre.ent U*boet warfare off Canada undoubtedly is di-agreeaole for Americans. F.very one must be prepared to see a commander occasion- ally overstep his instruction and make mietakes, but no one here wants trouble, and it can be counred upon that Berlin will keep its word."

The lailin-* of the (Ierman submarine merehantman Deutschland on another voyage to America has been cancelled, according to an Exchange Telegraph dispatch from Am.terdam.

Russia and Japan. In this connection he said: "Russia is out of joint, is half bankrupt, is starving and will be ready for a sep¬ arate peaee before spring. Japan and Russia are pushing toward this com¬ bination, and an overwhelming major¬ ity of the German people would wel- come it to-day. "It is the old Bismarcklan tradition that Germany ought to be the friend of Russia, and that sueh U alliance would be her sureat protection. "If we really want to bring peaee for a generation there is no hope but to bring Germany and England to an un¬ derstanding before Germany and Russia have formed an alliance. Neither the English nor the German people want this peaee to-day, but they ought to want it, for once the new alliance is formed it will seek to crush the ambi- tion of England for world power."

DRAPKR iBy (*ti'> lefhel London, Oct. 20..Muckensen has opened a new offensive in the Do¬ brudja. Striking at the Allied line along the whole front in the Ruma¬ nian province, he has forced back thei Rumanian left wing, rcsting on the Black Sea coast. The battle, whlrh is as heavy as any of those which marked his first drive, is still in progress, The Kaiser's generals srem deter¬ mined to force their way to Bucha¬ rest.if that be possible. Falken¬ hayn attt'mpted this, but thr- stanch resistance he met has blocked the frontier passes. To Mackensen. operating at the other end of the Balkan battle line.the task haa fallen again.

The Serbians, who are battering at the last Bulgarian line on the ridge ten 'miles east of Monastir, have held their ground.

HENRY C. FRICKBUYS A RUBENS

"Portrait of Spinola"Makes 104th Painting

He Has BoughtHenry C. Frick haa acquired another^

important old master, Rubens'a "Por-trait of the Matquis Ambrose de Spi-nola," it waa announced yesterday.This is the Arai example of the art afthe Flemish master to be obtained byMr. Frick, whose great collection,which it is understood will some daybecome the property of the public, now

comprises 104 important paintings.It is the second pieture Mr. Frick

has acquired in tiie present art season,the other being Rembrandt's "OldWoman Reflecting Over the Lecture,"for which he paid $250,000.The F'ubens was sold Mr. Frick by

M. Kr.oedler &. Co., who declined tomake the price public.

Mr. Frick is credited by the art

world with having the desire durin,.his lifetime to form the greatest artcollection in the United States, one

that will eclipse the J. Picrpont Mor¬

gan collection.Th© work by Rubens is an historical

portrait of the greatest interest, oe-

cause Spinola was the Spanish generalwho defeated the Dutch and put the;Netherlaada under the Spat.ish yoke.

SING SING GUNHUNT BEGUN;6 WEN CAUGHT

Easy to Smuggle Wea-pons In, Says OneWho Fled Prison

75 INSIDE, HETELLS CAPTORS

Osborne Blames Whitmanand Carter for Their

"Trifling"While the prison authorities were

conducting a rigid investigation to de¬termine where two of the six prisoner.who eseaped from Sing: Sing on Thurs¬

day obtained revolvera, and from whatsource they got a change of clorfiing,every available guard and employe was

set to work yesterday to ferret outweapons alleged still to be hiddenwithin the penitentiery walla.The hunt began even before the last

pf the men had been captured and re¬

turned to the institution. MauriceCurtis, the convict who was shot byJoseph Birdsall. a guard, near I'ocan-tico Hills, said no fewer than aeventy-five revolvers were concealed within the

prison. It was Curtis, the man whodrove the truck in which the six es¬

eaped, and conceded to be the brains ofthe gang, who was feared most by th-jguards.

Thought He Would DieWhen he was ehot he thought he

had been mortally wounded."Why didn't you shoot me in the

head and have it over?" he asked.Thinking he was anout to die, he

readily told the guards the directiontaken by his companions. When askedwhere he had obtained the revolver he

asserted it was easy to smuggle weap¬ons __to the prison. Since the acreens,

which formerly separated visitor and

prisoner, had been removed, he ex¬

plained, a person coming into the per.i-tentiary could pass anything to a prii--orrrr.

"There are aeventy-five more ln

there," he sald, "but you won't find 'em

ll the cells."Jay Crowley, asslstant to Acting

Warden Calvin Derrick, characterizedthe report as an absurdity, but admit-tad since the screens have been takendown in the visitors' room strangersmight have eluded the watchfulness ofthe guards on occasions.A month ago, however, it il known

Thomas Mott Osborne, then warden,caused an investigation to be mnde

when he received a rumor from out¬

side sources that certain prisoners pos-

sessed four revolvers. Frank Luti.oneof the men who eseaped, was broughtbefore the inmates' court at that tirffeand ordered to tell what he knew ofthc whereabouts of the weapons.

Convlct Changes Manner

When Curtis's injury was dress'dby Dr. Thomas Barry in the nrison

hospital and he had been informed itwas little more than a flerh wound andwould not prove serioU3, the convj-tchanged his manner nnd b?camc

facctious.Crowley was inelined to believe the

escape had been planned on thi *purof the moment, that the idea was sug-

gested by Curtis when he saw the

heavy rain and the truck standing le-neath a thed in the north end of the

yard. a

Curtis has been known to think

quickly before. Once, while in Clinton

prison, ho saw a claw hammer on a

guard's table. He complaincd of hav-

ing a Bail in his Bhoe that hurt him.'Ihe guard handed him the hammer,and that was the last he remembereduntil he r-gain.-d ronsciousness many

hour* later in the prison hospital.< urtis struck hnn over the head,grabbed his revolver and wounded sev¬

erai persons before he was ovtrpow-ared.

Mr. Derrick e.pressrd the belief that

the escapo had heen planned long be¬fore it occurrcd. The fact that themen had hlddefl the change of clothingin the tool chest. ** the truck, togetherwith the revolvers, and had stolen thecap worn by William Arison from a

I'luird named NelaOfl some time ago

ihowed this to be true. he pointed out.

ons, on the capture of the men, he saidrredit was due ( rowley and the corpsof guards."We have a good force here and there

VOapoaa. thia has not been deter¬

mined as yet."Kx -Warden Oiborne, speaking on

prieea reform at Hryant Hall, attnb-

Bted the escape to the fact that"Super-iritendont < arter and Governor Whit¬

man were trifling with the inrnatea at

DETECTIVE* SHOT,KEEPSUPPURSUITFour Bullets Required to

Detective Daniel Van Dam. ef In¬spector Morris's staff, kept right on

last night after one bullet from a flee¬ing gunj-an's revolver had carried awayhis hat and another had sliced the tipc>fT his left ear. Even after a third bul¬let had smashed his right shoulder anda fourth had lodged in his chest, VanDam managed to continue the pursuit¦mother half block and to empty hisirwn revolver before he eollapsed.The shooting, which occurred in Kast

Iflfil Street, had been preceded by thearret>t of Benjamin Braehhausen, a

striking conductor, of 1883 LexingtonAvenue. With his partner, DetectiveCharles McN'ulty, Van Dam had caughtthe striker nt N'inety-seventh Streetand I/exington Avenue after a street-car had been stoned.

Arcompenies DetectivesA* the two detectives entered the

Kast 10.th Street police station withtheir prisoner they were accompaniedby William Heineman, of 162 East

Ninety-seventh Street, a sergeant inCommissioner Woods's new Home De¬fenee League.A ery of "Stop, thlef!** halted Van

Dam and Heineman. A pickpocket ai

it then appeared--had been at work inthe crowd which had followed Braeh¬hausen to the station house.Van Dam, turning in time to see an

undersiied man breaking out of thethrong and raeing eastward, took upthe pursuit. So did Heineman. Young-er and fleeter of foot than Van Dam,who is forty, the amateur policemanoutstripped the detective.The chase led north on Third Avenue

for a block and then east again. Thefugitive had increased his lead andwas able to dodge into a bicycle »hopnt 24.1 East 105th Street and out againbefore Heineman came up. Severaiother men ran out of the store andblocked the way. One, said by thc po¬lice to have been Angclo Milone, partowner of the shop, had a revolver.

Defenee Sergeant FallsIt was at Heineman the first shot

was aimed. He ducked, slipped andfell.. Van Dam continued the chasealone, his own revolver drawn. Thegunman had followed in the f otstepsof the fugitive friend, racmg easttoward First Avenue and firing over hisshoulder. Van Dam, with wounds thatmight have meant instant death to a

weaker man, .ot. to the middle of theavenue before his strength gave out.Ho eollapsed on the car track.The gunman and the supposed pick¬

pocket completed their escape beforethe reserve. began to comb the dis¬trict for them. According to the po¬lice. the second man was recognized as

Louis Marino, of tU Kast 105thStre.t. He was charged with havingbeea an accessory to the shooting.The man who had raised the ery of

"Stop. thief!" was not to be foundafterward. and the police now believethe trouble in front of the station

MILITARY CHIEFSREFUSE TO TALK

People, Promised Light,Startled by Sudden

New Order

Hslifax, N. B. Oet. 20. All lights,!except a few shaded ones in the west

and north ends, have again been or-jdered turned off in the streets of this

city at night, and all blinds must be

drawn, according to orders just sent

out from military headquarters.Whether a visit from a transatlantic

Zeppelin or an attack from the sea byenemy warcraft is feared is not known.

"The lights will be turned out because

the naval and military authorities feel

that it is necessary," i« the only state¬

ment made by headquarters.Citizens who have fretted over the

necessity of makiog their way throughdimly lit streets were cheered when

city officials announced on Thursdaythat the light would soon be turned on

again. but later the military authoritiesmade it known that the resumption of

straat li.hting was to be only tempo-1

rary, and that it was for tbe purpose of

testing thc visibility of the lights from

the sea, the basin and the harbor.To an inquiry as to why the order

of "lights out" did not apply to St.

John, N. B., as well as to this city, the

reply was made at military headquar¬ters:"Oh, well, you kno* St. John is not

as important as Halifax."

Paumors in circulation since th- raide

of the U-H off Nantucket declaredI'-boats intended to carry their warfareto the coasts of Canada. If so, it is

thonght Halifax would be the first to

suffcr.The first Intimation that German

submarines were operating, or intende i

to operate, off the Canadian coast was

furnished by August Thyssen, the Ger¬

man financier, in an interview on Octo

ber 12. In a statement predicting th"renewal of submarine warfare underrestricted conditions Herr Thyssensaid:"Germany's pre.ent U*boet warfare

off Canada undoubtedly is di-agreeaolefor Americans. F.very one must be

prepared to see a commander occasion-

ally overstep his instruction and makemietakes, but no one here wants

trouble, and it can be counred upon thatBerlin will keep its word."

Infant Plague Serumon Missing Bremen

rrt) iMtpaaa la Ike THflnee.]Baltimore. Oct. 20. In addition te a

Icrger cargo of dyestuff* than the-D» utschland brought and medicines

badly needed in America the missingmerchant submarine Bremen is said to,have had aboard a serum for infantile;paralysis, which had been found ef-'fective in ('ermany."While we have no absolute word t*\

that effect, we believe the Bremen was

bringing the serum," said Paul Hilken,the Ameriean manager of the Deutsche

Oeean Rhedereia, owners ot* the Ger¬

man merchant submarines, to-day.Mr. Hilken returned to Baltimore this

morning from New London, Conn.,where he has been waiting for weeks

the arrival of the Bremen. He made no

effort te i.ide the grief he felt over the

fate of the boat -of which he now has

Lttle doubt and of the deaths of thejmembers of her crew thirty officers

end men.

Although tt has been reported that

tho fate of the Bremen has postponedtt definitely the return of the Deutsch-].nd to this country, Mr. Hilken says he

has had no news about the Deutschland.r.nd hfl Mippose*. that after lt has been,.in drydoCB for repairs it will make a

second royaga to America. i"Il is altogether poflflible," said Mr.

Hilken, "that the !'-.'.:<. which visitedthfl N'ew Kngland coast, crossed the At-Uuitic m sciarrh for the Bremen. Hut Ihad no communication with that vessel,and do not know. It seems rea-onable,¦InCfl thfl captain asked about the Bre¬men immediately on his arrival."We ,lo not believe the Bremen was

c.ptured. If fne British had takenherthey would have announced it iongago. I do not believe that Dr. William11 Welch. who said tecently that it was

r.poited in Kngland that 114 ('ermansubmarines had been captured wtfs cor-,rectly informed. I know that (.ermanyhas lost only eleven submarines fromail causes since the war began. Theycaptured one U-boat and one minelayer. ,

MUENSTERBERG SEESCZAR WITH KAISER IN 17

Asserts New Alliance Will Fol¬low Separate Peaee

Cambridge, Mass., Oct. 20. HugoMuensterberg, professor of psychologyat Han-ard University, in an addressto-night before the International PolityClub, of thc university, asserted thathe had been reliably informed thatRussia and Germany would aign termsrf a separate peaee before spring, andthat following this peaee there wouldbe an alliance among Germany, Aus¬tria. Russia and Japan.

In this connection he said: "Russiais out of joint, is half bankrupt, isstarving and will be ready for a sep¬arate peaee before spring. Japan andRussia are pushing toward this com¬

bination, and an overwhelming major¬ity of the German people would wel-come it to-day.

"It is the old Bismarcklan traditionthat Germany ought to be the friendof Russia, and that sueh U alliancewould be her sureat protection.

"If we really want to bring peaee fora generation there is no hope but to

bring Germany and England to an un¬

derstanding before Germany and Russiahave formed an alliance. Neither theEnglish nor the German people wantthis peaee to-day, but they ought towant it, for once the new alliance isformed it will seek to crush the ambi-tion of England for world power."
