PARIS — Ten million dollars worth of Impressionist paintings stolen from the Marmottan Museum in a weekend heist were uninsured because of the high cost of premiums, officials at the museum's parent institution acknowledged yesterday.
Soviet granted leave
There are few clues to the identities of the five armed art thieves who held hostage 30 visitors and nine security guards.
HAMBURG, West Germany — Soviet officials have granted permission for Yelena Ponner, wife of scientist and dissident Andrei Sakharov, to leave the Soviet Union for up to three months for medical treatment, a West German newspaper said yesterday.
Sakharov has gone on hunger strikes to back his wife's demand for permission to go abroad.
Writers file law suit

Whale circles back
PITTSBURG, Calif. — Humphrey the humpback whale, who has become a West Coast celebrity of sorts, again outmaneuvered his would-be rescuers and circled back upriver away from the Pacific Ocean yesterday.
Exasperated marine biologists temporarily suspended efforts to coax the whale toward the Golden Gate bridge and out of the water. The species wandered more than two weeks ago on a migratory side trip.
"We will not be herding him today. We will tag and monitor him, but we will not push him anywhere," said rescue team spokesman Mitchell Ryan. "We need to regroup."

Peres' peace proposal endorsed
JERUSALEM — Israel's parliament gave Prime Minister Shimon Peres an overwhelming vote of confidence shioned and approved by 68-10 an endorsement of his U.N. proposal for peace talks with Jordan and an end to a state of war.
From Kansan wires
Peres came under fire from right-wing Cabinet ministers over his speech to the United Nations last week. He called for peace talks with Jordan by year's end and a lifting of a state of war that has existed between the two nations since Israel was formed in 1948.
The Knesset, Israel's parliament, voted 68 to 10 with 10 abstentions to approve his peace initiative.
He is closely identified with Industry Minister Ariel Sharon, a leading Peres critic within the government.
Peres indicated willingness in that speech to consider an international conference involving the Palestinian people, and he reported his relations with Israel. The Israeli position previously had been firm opposition to such a conference.
Only one member of a party in the ruling coalition revolted against the leadership and opposed Peres - David Magen of the right-wing Lukid bloc.
The no-confidence vote was forced by the ultranationalist Tehiya Party, which has just five deputies in the 120-member Israeli parliament and opposes giving up any Israeli-occupied Arab territory in return for peace. Israel seized the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and the Golan Heights in the 1967 Arab-Israeli war and annexed the Golan Heights in 1981.
Foreign Minister Yitzhak Shamir, who heads the Likibud loc, had urged the Likid to endure Peres' speech, although it lacked "precisely what we would have said."
"We have no reason to bring down the government because of this statement," he told a party caucus. The Likud bloc and its rival, the Labor alignment, came together in a coalition government after 1984 elections resulted in a parliamentary stalemate.
Peres' U.N. speech was interpreted as suggesting the Soviet Union, as a permanent member
of the Security Council, be included in an international conference on Middle East peace - a key demand of Arab countries.
But in his Knesset address yesterday, Peres appeared to close the door on Soviet participation.
He said any such international forum could not include nations that did not maintain diplomatic relations with Israel, which would rule out the Soviet Union.
He also said, "Peace talks can only include delegates who support peace and peace talks without preconditions. This automatically rules out the PLO." Peres did not explicitly exclude the Palestine Liberation Organization in his U.N. speech.
"The international forum under discussion can be limited, for example, to a Jordanian-Israeli or Jordanian-Palestinian-Israeli meeting without the participation of the United States." Peres said.
"I call on the Palestinians not to be led astray by the glitter of terrorism, and to seize the chance for a fair and realistic solution."
U.S. troops investigated
United Press International
SYRACUSE, Sicily — Investigators yesterday studied a police report to determine whether U.S. troops broke Italian law during a tense stand-off with Italian forces this month over who would take custody of the hijackers of the Achille Lauro.
Syracuse prosecutors were studying the highly detailed report, prepared by Carabinieri paramilitary police, on the events that occurred after four U.S. jet fighters forced an Egyptian plane to crash near Syracuse at the joint U.S.-Italian NATO base at Sigüenza outside Catazza, Sicily.
Mike Canning, U.S. Embassy spokesman, said U.S. officials had not been notified of the investigation.
The Sicilian investigation also sought to detail events leading to Italy's detention of the four Palestinians, who killed American Leon Khlighoffer, 69, during the two-day hijacking of the Italian cruise ship Achille Lauro.
"Until some definite information is provided by an Italian court, we would have no comment," Canning said.
The stand-off could form the basis for charges against U.S. troops, judicial experts said.
S. African meetings halted
From Kansan wires
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa — Authorities banned meetings of 102 anti-apartheid groups yesterday in Cape Town, where a white farmer, trucking his vegetables to market, fired into a crowd of mixed-race youths and killed one person.
Also yesterday, South Africa completed its first 100 days under a state of emergency, with the death rate from rioting more than double that of earlier months.
The dead include 14 black policemen and one white soldier, as well as several black community councillors, regarded by black militants as having sold out to the white regime.
were killed by other blacks, mainly because they were suspected of being collaborators and informers, while about two-thirds were shot by police in the continuing violence.
The government said about one-third of the victims
A total of 334 people have been killed in the 100 days of the emergency, a rate of 3.34 per day, according to the South African Institute of Race Relations. That compares with 509 people who died in the preceding 323 days, a rate of 1.54 per day – between Sept. 18, 1984, and the beginning of the emergency decree, the institute's record show.
Jennifer Shindler, a researcher at the institute, said the figures were based on press clippings and police reports. She also said that 845 people have been killed in South Africa's racial violence since mid-1984.
Officials question Soviet sailor
United Press International
NEW ORLEANS — A Navy sailor who jumped ship in the Mississippi River, only to be returned to his vessel because U.S. officials could not understand him, was moved to a Coast Guard cutter yesterday for interviews to determine whether he wants to defect.
The sailor, Miroslav Medvid, was taken aboard the cutter for the interview about 6 p.m. EST, accompanied by Soviet representatives under an agreement reached between the two nations earlier in the day, State Department spokeswoman Anita' Stockman said in Washington.
U. S. authorities earlier boarded the Soviet vessel to meet Medvid and examine him. He was found to have an injury on his left arm but there was no indication he was drugged, a State Department spokesman said. Still, the Americans demanded that he be interviewed in a non-threatening environment, the spokesman said.
he wanted to defect. The agents thought he was a stowaway.
On Friday, Medvid jumped from the 102,000-ton grain ship M. V. Marshal Konyev, anchored at Belle Chasse 10 miles downriver from New Orleans on Friday. He swam ashore but was returned screaming by Border Patrol agents who did not understand his Russian when he said
On the way, Medvid jumped out of the crewboat and tried to swim back to shore but he was recaptured and held until Russian agents could retrieve him.
State Department spokesman Bernard Kalb said the M.V. Marshal Konyev would be permitted to leave "when we have satisfied ourselves about the individual's intentions."
As for Medvid, Kalb said, "When we hear the free expression (of his desires), a decision will be made as to the next step."
Peace talks with Israel discussed
The Associated Press
AMMAN, Jordan — King Hussein and PLO chairman Yasser Arafat met yesterday to reassess their relationship and the future of their faltering joint bid to make peace with Israel.
Arafat and eight other top officials of the Palestine Liberation Organization went to the royal palace for meetings with Hussein, who told reporters last week that he was reconsidering his relations with the PLO after a new cycle of violence and diplomatic setbacks.
The king also had said it was up to the Palestinian people 'to decide whether the PLO should continue to represent them.
However, Arafat's chief military deputy, Khalil Wazir, told reporters he believed everything would be solved after the meeting with Hussein. Wazir, who is also known as Abu Qasim, is one of the key seals and Arafat signed Feb. 11 to pursue a joint negotiating strategy would not be affected.
Hussein told a news conference last Thursday he was reasless the entire situation of his relations with the PLO in the light of recent events.
Those include the Sept. 25 slaying by PLO guerrillas of three Israelis aboard a yacht in Cyprus, Israel's retaliatory bombing of PLO headquarters in Tunis on Oct. 1 and the killing of an American passenger aboard an Italian cruise ship hijacked by Palestinian gunmen.
Efforts to involve the United States, a critical player in the plan, have been stymied in part by PLO refusal to recognize two United Nations resolutions that imply recognition of Israel but fail to mention Palestinian rights to a state.
Prime Minister Shimon Peres of Israel hinted last week he would make concessions on the demand for an international conference if Jordan would drop its insistence on including the PLO in any peace settlement between Israel and Jordan.
But he told the Israeli Parliament yesterday that "no international forum can replace direct negotiations" and said that "automatically excludes" the PLO.
