LETS PRISONER
FLEE SING SING
Nassau County Highway Rob.
Der Escapes by Way of the
Warden'S House.

Fred Rothermel serving a ten-year
term in Sing Sing for highway rob-
berry committed in Nassau County
escaped at 10 o'clock this morning.
The country for miles around the
prison Is being searched for him.
Rothermel and two other prisoners
were on the roof OF the cell block
making repairs. They we're in charge
of one keeper, a new one by the name
Of Windsnan. Rothenmel obtained
permission to go down and get a tool.
The way, down is by way Of the
roof Of the warden's residence. Roth
ermel must have gone down through
the wRrden's house to the lawn.
There, If he was seen at ell, he would
be taken for a trusty, and nobody
would notice If he walked away.
The escape was discovered within
ten minutes, the alarm given and the
siren sounded, warning everybody in
the nebghborhood to be on watch
Warden Lawes said II was certain
the man had not been able to get a
train and was undoubtedly near the
prison. and thought he would be re-
captured soon.
The inexperienced guard Is blamed
for the escape and the Warden said
there was no excuse for 1t. The
prison has many green" guards now,
due to the fact that experienced men
have taken advantage Of the pension
law which permits them to retire on
half pay after twenty-five years GER

Rothermel, who lived in the Bronx,

would be difficult for Mr.. Harding
TO send the treaty 70 the Senate

powers for changes. Also the view
is being urged upon the President
that full responsibility for the failure

the Senate II he sent the document
TO the Upper House with his own
suggestions of changes that could
be made to satisfy criticisms made
heretofore.
WILSON HIMSELF MAY SUGGEST
A COMPROMISE.

prise II Mr.. Wilson, realizing his de-
feat at the last election, would at last
mako compromise suggestion and
leave II to the Republican Senate to
approve or reject, but furnishing at

The Republicans would prefer that
Mr.. Wilson forget about the treaty

ator Harding gets inside the White
House and begins cleaning up his
desk and examining his files. They

next few weeks viii be for legislation

The clash between the city and the

OF the Treasury Department may be
said to reflect President Wilson's
views-nRmely, that the credit of the
United States is already in such
strained condition that to extend
loans 10 any one class would only
start general demand for relief
which would weaken the Government
purse and force down the price OF
Liberty Bonds and other obligations,
Much OF the trouble is due TO the
fact that while the people voted In
November TO turn the Democratic
Administration out OF power the new
Administration doesn't come into Of
fee until three months have passed
and probably will not get familiar
with the problems in hand for another
two months after that. Meanwhile
American business suffers all sorts OF
