Admission was made to-day at the art galleries of Duveen Bros. No. 720 Fifth Avenue, and F. Kleinberger + & Co., No, 709 Fifth Avenue, that the loss on the paintings by old masters burned in the hold of the Mississippi/| @ freight steamship of the French Line, wich arrived here Nov. 2%, is approximately $1,000,000. The first news of the fire became knowa to- day. The ship carried the largest art con- signment for the United States thut has been made this seasun, Included were both paintings and antique ob- Jects of art. The cases containing them were badly charred and the Daintings suffered when the hold was filled with salt water. The fire started shortly after the/ Mississippi left Havre. Tho ship put into Brest where it was found it had) not been damaged Art objects of first importance have been brought to America for wealthy | collectors by Duveen Bros., for many years, notably for the Morgan and Altman collections. But Joseph Du- veon denied to-day that any of the objects destroyed in the ship fire were for the Morgan collection. He inti- mated that among them were some famous paintings but refused to re- veal their names or the identity of the | artists. He admited the value of his | firm's share of the consigninen: was about $800,000. At the Kleinberger Galleries it was sald that the paintings consigned to them were worth in the neigiborhood of $200,000, The Duveen shipment was under- written by Lloyds of LSndon while the Kleinberger collection was in-| ured by a French company. The! latter, it is said, consisted of two cases containing eight paintings, nearly all of them Italian primitives on wood panels. It was stated that the various charred cases have not yet been opened by representatives of tho tom House ance » At heavy netary loss but this is rr led as secondary te the fact that the objects destroyed! cannot be replaced. EIGHT MONTHS’ STRIKE OF 40,000 STILL ON Miners and Operators in Ohio, Deadlocked, Break Off®Negotia- tions—Many Face Statvation.

Forty ! thousand miners are involved in tho{ strike. Although the conference spent two hours this morning discussing vari- ous angles of the coal strike, it was stated that neither the operators nor miners receded from their previous demands—the miners asking 47 cents a ton and the operators sticking to their offer of 44.61 cents. These were | the figures on which the two factions | q disagreed last March and which re- sulted in the calling of the strike eight months ago. Since the strike was called numerous futile efforts have been made at joint conferences | ™ to reach an greement. Many of the | miners and their families are on the verge of starvation.
