10 (By the Associated Press) A tunnel requiring many weeks to construct was employed Thursday night in effecting the escape of some 50 interned Sinn Feiners from the Currngh internment in County Kildare. The camp is surrounded by several rows of barbed wire entanglement and is heavily guarded by soldiers. The prisoners built the tunnel under the barbed wire, using some of the flooring of their hills for props. The most difficult part was to elude the guard. This was done by creating a diversion Thursday evening.

Numerous prisoners guve songs and recitations, which received great applause both from other Interned men, and. it is said, from the guard. While this was proceeding between 40 and DO men passed through the tunnel and have not been seen since. 30 OF 45 DRY LAW CASES DISMISSED Grand Jury Again Jolts Arrests Without Warrants.

O'MALLEY OUSTED WINTER TO SAVE OWN JOB AT HYLAN ORDER Hot Row in Mayor's Cabinet Preceded Discharge of Market Inspector. A big row in Mayor Hylun's uMii-ial family preceded the dismissal of Churles A. Winter, general Inspector of the Department of Public Markets, by Commissioner Edwin .1. O'Malli as a result of the charges of graft made against him before the Meyer Legislative Investigating Committee, It was learned today. In well-Informed quart it was said that this move by O'Malley, who "ran away" from cross-examination by counsel of the Meyer committee on charges concerning him personally, was forced by Mayor 1 1 via n.

who gave him the alternative of removing Winter forthwith or make room for successor in the Commlssionershlp of the Department of Markets. Because the dismissal of the general Inpeetor of the department against whom negations of wholesale graft have been made before any of the charges had been proved in court, would carry the conviction to the public that, the Mayor believed them to be true. Mayor Hylan did not favor drastic action In regard to O'Malley or Winter until representations had been made to him by certain advisers that unless he unburdened himself of responsibility for the conditions found in that department by the Meyer committee the political effect might be very bad. especially if similar revelations should be made by the investigating committee in other city departments. On the other band, the Mayor was beset by friends of O'Malley, who clamored that nothing should be done In the way of confirming the charges made before the Meyer committee, nt least until Hie Grand Jury had acted.

and reminded him of the fact that lie kent Commissioner of Accounts David lllrshfield in otlloe although, the latter has an indictment hanging over him, Tlie.se friends were mostly city officials who believed that the resignation of O'Malley or the ilismlssal of Winter would prove an entering wedge to the break up of the whole city administration under the fire of tlie Meyer Investigating committee. At the City Hall the belief is thnt the dismissal of Winter will not save O'Malley. whose voluntary resignation is expected to lie forthcoming, despite mnny denials. Winter has powerful friends. They believe that he has been made the "goat" of the alleged misdoings in the Department of Public Markets.

Thev say, in effect, that if Winter really did take money from stand-holders in the rity markets, only the most unsophisticated could be made to believe that he kept it all for himself.
