HYSTERIA DYING
Smaller Crowds Call for Money,

terra. The feeling seemed 10 be preva-

the stupid runs" would die a natural

Max Kobre, head of the bankrupt chain
Of banks which bore his name, and Moses
Ginsberg, his partner and manager Of

$4,000 bail each yesterday when ar

ART MEN WORRIED
BY CUSTOM DELAYS
Possible Million Lost in
Paintings in Ship Fire
Awaits Appraisal.

The slowness of the Custom House
in reaching the appraisal of shipments
of paintings, brought in November n
on the French liner Mississippi, IS
keeping two Fifth av. importers in sus-
pense as to what their losses by the
fire on the vessel will amount TO. They
put 100000 to S1.000,000 as within the
range of possibilities.
The charred and soaked packing
cases on the pier show great damage
by fire and water. How much cannot
be determined until they are opened.
Although the news was suppressed when
the Mississippi arrived, it became
known yesterday through the anxiety
of the picture men that she took fire
at sea shortly after leaving Havre.
When the blaze was discovered the
hol was pumped full of water. Since
many of the early Italian paintings in
the consignment were painted with
"tempora," colors mixed with egg
whites, the damage done by water is
as great as if they had been burned.
The consignees were Duveen Bros.
and F. Kleinberger.
The Duveen consignment was the
largest made this season. 1t contained
both paintings and rare objects of art.
A member of the firm said yesterday
that as until the cases we're opened
nothing could be told of the actual con-
dtion no information would be given
as TO what was IN the shipment.
The Kleinberger shipment consisted
of eight Italian paintings on wooden
panels. A member of the firm said the
cases were badly charred and soaked
and he had small hopes for the con-
tents. The customs people, he said,
would not permit any one to get near
enough 70 them to make even a cur
sorry examination, so no estimate Of the
damage could be made.
The Custom House has informed the
owners that their goods will not be
reached for a week at least. Many of
the objects cannot be repl7ced if they
have been destroyed. They were all
brought from the firms Paris galleries
When the Germans threatened Paris
they were removed and concealed.

SETS AGE MARK AT 120
Prof. Starr and Count 0kuma
Make Longevity Wager.

Los Angeles, Dec. A. Professor
Frederick Starr, of the University of
Chicago, who is in Los Angeles for his
first vacation in thirty years, says he
intends to live to be 100 years old, five
years less than the age set by Count
Okuma, Premier of Japan, who has told
Professor Starr he intended to live 1875
years.
Professor Starr said he had a wager
with the Count. If Professor Starr
lives to be 100 the Count must give
him present, and if, on the other
hand. Professor Starr is living when
the premier arrives at 125 the present
is TO come from the professor.
Asked for his recipe for longevity,
the noted explorer said it was a smile
and good nature. "Never get angry"
he said, that kills the germ of life. Be
cheerful, smile even if you don't feel
like it and you will live longer"

GUN FOR WATCHW0MAN
Magistrate Advises Her to
Practise in Giving Permit.

Mrs. Ethel Ryan, known to fame as
night watchwoman, got a permit yes
terday to carry a revolver while on
duty in Washington Market. II devel-
oped a week ago, when she produced
two prisoners in court, that she had
captured them without the aid of fire.
arms. Magistrate Steers, in Flatbush
court, rectifed that deficiency.
At first the magistrate would not be
lieve that the demure and stylishly
dressed applicant could be what she
said she was. Only when Arthur G.
Kracke and two other merchants in the
market vouched for her did he issue
the permit.
Magistrate Steers, who has been
borough president in Brooklyn and is
major in the national guard, urged
the watehwoman never TO shoot with
out fair warning and also advised her
to practise at a target. Ladies'" he
said, "are not noted for hitting what
they shoot at"
