DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, FRIDAY. MAY 21, 1920

I $2C,000 LIFE INSURANCE CLAIM PAID AT MONROE BY THE LIN- I COLN LIFE INSURANCE CO. I Yesterday one of the largest. or the largest claim that has ever been paid in this county by a single company, was paid to Mrs. Emma Heyerly, wife of the deceased John Heyerly, of Monroe, who met with accidental death two weeks ago. The strange coincidence connected with this is that one SIO,OOO policy was carried only a little over a year and the second policy of $5,000, was taken out April 15 of this year and not a single cent had yet been paid on 1 this policy. An additional feature of 1 this policy was that the double indemnity provision was attached to this i which provided that in case of accidental death double the face of the policy was paid. This accounts for the payment of $20,000 in this particular asp, and which was paid by O. Gillion). district manager of the Lincoln Life. Everyone familiar with the circuni- - stances claim that is one of the ' strongest arguments that lias ever j been brought to the face of the public for life insurance. On account of the ihe financial standing of Mr. Heyerly this comes as a great relief to the creditors. | Mrs. Heyerly has been appointed administratrix of the estate and is running the tile rnijl temporarily, ex-1 pecting to make a sale in the near i'u-1 ture.

HANGS SELF <United Press Service) London. May 21.—(Special to Daily Demcorat) —That the aged former emperor of Austria-Hungary. Franz Joseph, hanged himself in his bedroom ' was the statement published by the socialist newspaper of Rome, accord- ' ing to the correspondent of the Chronicle today. The British minister of transport has asked perimssion to raise street railway fares. He says that many municipal lines in Britain are a burden on the taxpayers, their apparent surplus being due to their failure tc : make proper replacements of material. Cries of "Shame!” sounded through I the British Parliament when a member I told of refusal to release an Irish prisoner to see his dying child. . The immigration of Mexican workmen to the United States has become | so great that the Mexican government has requested the governors of Mexican states to use their influence to lessen it. MARKETS FOR THE WEEK Trend of Prices Continues Upward— Shortage of Supplies Precipitates Competitive Movement. Prices maintained their upward movement in the paper market in the past week, but there was no increase in the supply. There is considerable tonnage at some of the news print, writing paper and tissue mills but this stock should have been delivered 1 weeks ago and therefore makes no ma- | terial impression in the condition of i shortage. The predominant causes of i the shortage—the enormous demand, shortage of raw material and poor railroad facilities — remain, although, there was a noticeable improvement in the latter during the past' week, in New England the freight embargo was lifted for two days, but was quickly put on again. On the individual lines , freight movements are fairly g oo d. but great congestion prevails at transfer points and near big cities. Moat of the paper shipments to New York City over the New York Central lines are being unloaded at Kingsbridge on the outskirts, from whence they are hauled to their destination by auto trucks. The Pennsylvania railroad has succeeded in bringing occasional loads down to Sixty-fifth street and a few to Thirty-third street. — Paper Mill.
