SUPREMACY IN ART
PASSES To AMERICA

LONDON, Sept. 23.-GP)-Sur'
prise, regret and resignation marked
the comments today on the deal dir
posing Of the art treasures OF the late
Lord Leverhulme-surprise at the I'M
expected boldness of the coup engi-
neered BY Mitchell Kennerly of New
York; regret at seeing London's SUI
premacy as an art center passing 10
America, and resignation at the reall-
zation of the hopelcssness of Compel
ing with the United States in such
matters.
1T is a sign of the time say the
dealers here. America has the money
and there is no more To be said.
The Star, in an editorial, makes
the bitter reflection that America,
through luck in entering the war late
enough tn avoid the impOverishment
which fell upon her allies, should
thereby be enabled to denude her prin.

TO retain"

Mr.. Kennerly carried the deal
through hot.foot. he only arrived IN
London last Friday and will return
OF New York forthwith. having ar

CANARY GANG
STEAL PRIZE
S0NGSTERS
Officers Believe Thieves
Resell in Other
Cities.

San Antonio has a new class Of
criminals voh compare with the
pigeon thieves haunting the larger
cities of the countries and stealing
valuable birds TO sell or return fol
rewards.
They are the canary gangsters.
City detectives were convinced Tues
day night that an organized band with
the purpose Of stealing valuable
canaries for resale was in existence.
TAKE THE CAGE.
Frank Wilkes, 211 Adams street, is
the latest victim of the gangsters. An
expensive roller canary male was
stolen from his front porch, the thief
also taking the birds cage.
Since the first of the present year
with striking regularity, local par
ties have been filched of valuable birds.
In each instance, the stolen birds were
of pedigree and were remarkable sing
ers.
The officers believe that the greater
share of the stolen birds are disposed
Of out of the city, making the capture
OF the thieves more difficult.
Another impeachment in the search
for this class of thief, according 10
the officers, is the hitherto infrequency
of canary thefts. Prospective buyers
rarely stop to consider thing so small
as canary as stolen property.

DOWNTOWN PARKING UP.
M. e. M. Association Calls Recent
Traffic Order Unreasonable"

The proposal that parking on down
| tow streets be prohibited between the
hours of s am. and 6 pm. was called
| unreasonable" in a meeting of the
| board of governors of the Merchants
! and Manufacturers Association late
yesterday, and a resolution was passed
| opposing it.
The resolution, offered by Gen. An
ton Stephan. reads: "It is the sense of
the board of governors of the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers Associa-
| ton that we are opposed to any ban
on parking between the hours of
am. and 6 pm. in the congested sec
| ton and that We favor the enforce
| ment of a one-hour parking regula-
| ton"
1t is unreasonable to discommode
| the entire community in order to ap-
prehend the all-day parking hog, de-
clared Secretary Columbus, who is a
member of the traffic advisory COM
mittee. In making a report of his OBJ
| servations in connection with the de-
veIopment of traffic regulations, he
| said:
There is no room in the world for
the all-day parking hog, but in order
to apprehend the culprit it is unrea-
sonable to discommode the entire
community"
| Members of the board expressed
themselves as firmly of the opinion
that there should be an enforcement
of the law, and that sufficient facili-
/ ties be provided to do So
| The egress and ingress of individ-
uals and merchandise in the business
district was pointed out as a neces-
sity in public welfare by Gen.
| Stephan.
Ross P. Andrews, president, made a
| report of the activities of the joint

1t would do world of good for
Washington.
A special committee to promote a

| authorized on motion by NJ A.
Leese. This developed in connection
with a report of the 1925 booster out
ing committee. The annual outing of
| the association will be held June 10
| on the steamer Southland of the
| Norfolk & Washington Line. The
| trade boosters will leave Friday

what Sacrilegious act has been com
mitted by the Communists.
Monseigneur Stephan, Archbishop of
Sofia. graphically recounted to the
correspondent the events of fatal
Thursday. Between 6 in the morning
and midday the prelate was holding
communion services in the cathedral.
Returning at in the afternoon he
confided to one or two intimates that
a feeling of coming evil lay in his
breast.
Forebodings Increase.
At 5 O'Clock the cathedral began 10
fill with mourners for the funeral and
the archbishop grew increasingly
nervous. When the catastrophe ac.
tually occurred he had just begun his
funeral address. Although he escaped
unscratched he was utterly unable to
comprehend the magnitude of the
tragedy, and begged the congregation
to remain tranquil as he wished to
continue his prayers. Only by force
could his compa mons make him leave
the cathedral.
Never has a Christian church been
the victim of such an outrage" the
archbishop said. Hundreds of limo
cent souls worshipping in the house
of God met their death by some de.
mented hand
Archbishop Stephan's words are
being echoed throughout Bulgaria to
day, while sympathy has been ex
pressed in kilograms from Christian
churches throughout the world.
