HUGE PAINTING is CUT
FROM FRAME IN HOTEL

Louisville, KY, April 23.-Police
and private detectives have been un-
able to find trace of the vandal who
some time during Thursday night or
cary Friday morning cut a large and
valuable oil painting from its frame
on the parlor floor of The Seelbach.
The robbery was discovered in the
morning when maids went on duty
in that section of the hotel.
The painting represented a shep-
herd dog, watching a flock of sheep
and had been much admired. Critics
considered it of great value and it
was further priced because of the
fact that it had been in the Seelbach
family for many years. The picture
was fifty by thirty feet in dimensions
and was the work of some unknown
artist in the Barker studio, London.
The frame from which it was taken
was the only one in the room which
was not protected by glass.

Pitcher Falkenberg May
Return to Major Team

Indianapolis, April 23.-Pitcher Cy
Falk enberg, of the Indians, may take
a place in the major leagues. proba
bly, with the Philadelphia Athletics.
President McGill said he expected to
lose Falkenberg within a few days.
and sentiment will play a big part in
the matter.
In Albany. Ga. the spring train
ing camp of the Indians, the Athletes
played an exhibition game with the
tribe and Falkenberg pitched in su-
perb manner. After the game Mack
made Manager Hendricks an offer for
the pitcher. He said Falkenberg was
of big league caliber and that he
would be valuable asset as coacher
for younger pitchers. Since then
Mack has made a number of offers of
players and cash but so far none has
been accepted. Harry Davis, the
right-hand man of Connie Mack, was
in Toledo when Falkenberg pitched a
two-hit 14-inning game and he imme-
diately wired his boss something.

Freight Car Shortage Is
Showing Large Increase

Railroads of the United States on
April L reported to the American
Railway Association n shortage of
1i3,059 freight cars. This was an in
crease of 1917 cars over the short
age on March l, and was the largest
reported since the present freight
congestion and shortage began last
September as well as the largest car
shortage ever reported by the. rail-
roads.
These three factors are probably
the cause of hits increased shortage.
shippers, nowing that the railroads,
because of the great demand for cars
and an increasing shortage, are able
to supply only a certain percentage
of the cars ordered, double their or
ders accordingly.
