Clouds Of smoke that cUr.ed from the.

to shreds by the high wind that prevailed
yesterday afternoon gave rise 20 an

storeroonns of Museum Filled.

The application for the appropriation
for the new wing, the director declared,
was submitted to the city authorities
in January, 1912.
"We had reason to hope" said Mr.
Robinson, 'that action would be taken
early in the last summer, and made our
plans accordingly. The summer arrived
and passed, however, without any ac-
ton, and all preparatory work and
planning for the installation Of collec-
tions, including those of Mr.. Morgan,
have been necessarily delayed"
Mr. Robinson said the storerooms OF
the museum were filled to oyerfowing
and contained a large number Of OBJ
jects Of art which it was desired to
place on exhibition, but for which there
was no room, even with the completion
Of the new north wing.
While admitting the seriousness Of
the situation, Mr.. Robinson said:

until the Board OF Estimate has made
it's decision in regard to the application
Of the trustees of the museum for an
appropriation to build the southern ex-
tension Of the museum. II that de-
cision should be unfayorable 1t would
place the museum in a grave predica-
ment. Rather than lose the collections
the trustees Of the museum would un-
doubtedly agree TO withdraw other col
lections now on exhibition or intended
TO be placed in the north wing, which
Is nearing completion, should MIR. Nor
gan consent &c. such an arrangement,
but such Withdrawal could only result
i'm loss TO the public Of valuable and
important works OF art and would
mean a serious sacrifice TO the people
of New York and TO all students Of art
in this country"
Controller Prendergast made it plain
yesterday that the city should, in
his opinion, provide for the erection
Of the wing needed to house the Nor
gan treasures. He said. however, that
he was not certain just when the addi-
ton should be built.
81 believe" he added, that provision
should be made for these art treasures
as soon as possible, but IL is a question
as TO just what is most needful, So
cially, at present. With hospitals and
recreation centres and schools de-
handing attention, we have -gotc to
take things in the order of importance
as we see it,"
Members Of the Board Of Estimate
are OF the opinion, it was said yester-
day, that the criticism that has arisen
as a result of their failure, as yet, 10
provide for the construction mentioned
is an attempt to push forward the
making Of an appropriation and the
issuance OF corporate stock by agita-
ton.
