MUNICH, Bavaris, June 6—Three thousand historic and contemporary works of art, including five seulptures | | by Rodin, were destroyed early today in a fire which destroyed the old Crystal Palace. The building housed an ex- hibition of paintings gathered from every part of the country. ‘The monetary loss was tentatively placed a6 86,000,000, Only 100 paint. ings were saved and most of those, ironically, were canvases which the jury had turned down. These had been stored in a small shed near the ex- hibition hall.

Works Priceless. Among the works which were lost are collections constituting not only the life work of dozens of struggling contem- porary artists, but 110 of the finest works of the more eminent nineteenth century German Romanticist painters. Munich fostered the Romanticist movement, thereby gaining its chief fame as one of the artistic centers of the world. Hamburg had loaned 17 paintings for display, and many other pieces were exhibited from 40 other German towns and cities, including works from the National Gallery at Berlin and museums i Breslau. Among the works of the Romanticists which were destroyed were Morits von Schwindt's “Wunderhorn,” Ritter Kurt's “Bridal Ride,” “The Youth Wunder- horn” and “Night Jor\lflu!n—pl-\nfinll which are known the world over in re- production. Also lost was Philipp Otto Runge's “We Three,” considered the most beau- tiful German group portrait of the nineteenth century and the elght best works of Caspar David Friedrich and four works of Peter von Cornelius. The Berlin National Gallery lost one of its most famous pictures in Karl Blechen's “Striking Lightning,” a work which showed the Italian influence on that master. Nine Koch's Lost. Nine pictures by Anton Koch were lost, as well as a dozen by the brothers Olivier, who were “discovered” at the beginning of this century. Many modern art works by recent and contemporary artists also were lost. A whole section devoted to the sculp- ture of Rodin, including 11 works, was destroyed, as well as an adjacent section in which was exhibited the work of the Frenchmen Renauld, Maillot, Despian, Derain, Blanche and an entire hall of modern Milanese artists. ‘The whole life's work of the Swiss painter Cuno Amiet was consumed, as well as 67 of the best paintings of Otto Struetzel. A collection comprising 45 of the best works of Erich Kublerschky was lost and many paintings of other well known German contemporaries such as | Liebermann, Lederer and Kokoschka, SOUTH CHINA REBELS SET UP GOVERNMENT Chiang Prepares for Struggle With Secessionists in Kwangsi and Kwantung Provinces.
