 The method of escape was easy. No policeman was on guard. Zambori, who was scheduled to appear in court today was able to NwaIk about tthe corridors. In the afternoon he pleaded that he wanted some fresh air to enable him to stand the jour ney to the court room today. His guard left him for a moment and he was gone.

.ss London, Nov.is 20-Although no of ficiaI confirmation has been received of the report that the Bulgarians have captured Monastir, in southwes- tern Serbia. little hope is felt in Eng land that the announcement is pre- mature.

 Experiments in the navy model j1a- sin with models of the new craft show that they will require between 5000 and 10000 horsepower to make the ad- ditionaf five knots,
 No internal combustion engines to go in the space ayaflab7e and furnish xae power required could be found for the boats and the specifications to be advertised win propose vessels fitted with steam turbines for surface work The boilers will be fired with oil fuNt
 A novel arrangement has been de- veloped for ordinary surface cruising vkFereby one of the twin turbines will do all the work, the second shaft be- ing operated by/eIectrictty. When high speed is required both turbines will be used The boats win be fitted with motor generators operating on pinion gears of the turbines. When the tur- pines are working they will generate electricity for the storage batteries: heneath the surface electricity will be flown back from the batteries to the generators which then become motors to drive the propeller shafts.
 The pecularity of the construction. however, lies in the fact that when the boat is cruising one turbine will drive one propeller shaft and also it's own generator Tn this way, the full efHciency is obtained from the single turbine and economy of fuel consump- tion secured.
 The boats win mount disappearing guns for surface action. the new four inch veapon of this type probably be- irg substituted for the three-inch gun on smaller submerssbles. They will probably carry two guns each.

 A clergyman has refused to marry Mrs. Jasulajtys to John Boenoith et the same address, because she didn't know where her husband was, al- though she assumed him to be dead.
 Mrs. Jasulajtgs learned yesterday that man supposed to be Peter Pe- terson had died in bed at a Tod ging house and that he was buried in the Potter's field. A friend suggested that she investigate and she took a photo graph of her husband to Rourke & Bouchers morgue yesterday.

 Nobody had claimed .'Reterson's'' body and it was supposed he had no relatives here. A week ago, Mrs. JasulaJtys had applied to a clergy man for a marriage ceremony and had been refused because she could not tell whether her husband was alive or dead or where he was.
 Anthony Mitchell of 22 Seaside court, advised her to investigate the ''Peterson'' matter. She did and learned that her husband is dead. Now she may marry again.
