STOCK MARKET SUFFERS UNDER HIGH PRESSURE Exchange House Loses Faith and Heavy Selling Is Result. Bu United Press NEW YORK, Feb. 15.—Saturday’s weakness In the stock market in the face of settlement of the coal strike and several other sweepingly constructive developments caused many stock exchange houses to lose faith in the long side of the market and advices out over the week end brought a fairly large volume of selling orders from interior points. Many observers took the attitude that notwithstanding the soundness of the business situation, stock prices appeared to have discounted and in some instances run ahead of the favorable factors in the economic situation. This theory caused professional traders to add large offerings to the outside liquidation, placing the general list under severe pressure In the early trading. Better support was accorded the general list in the late morning and urgent selling subsided around noon. With the market steadier, buying operations were resumed in special stocks. American Telephone was a feature of conspicuous strength in the investment class, pushing into new high ground for the year at iSO, up 1% points from the previous close.

Local Bank Clearings Indianapolis bank clearings, for today amounted to $4,111,000. Debits totaled $6,104,000.

fn the Sugar Market

(By Thomson k McKinnon) Today's sugar markets will be watched with particular interest following the double holiday and the sharp decline in futures which occurred last Thursday. The light demand for refined sugar has been one factor working against higher prices lately and the reports of large supplies m the United Kingdom have been another. Tho official Cuban crop fore<g*st has as yet failed to come out. althought last week s break in futures was generally attributed to preliminary estimates of what the figures would be. There is nothing here new to indicate a drastic change in the situation.

IF SUPERVISED STUDENTS MAKE MORE PROGRESS Pupils in Experiment Show 30 Per Cent More Advancement. School children living; in the two Indiana counties in which the general education board’s Supervised educational experiment is being conducted progressed 30 per cent more rapidly last year than children in two unsupervised counties. Such will be the report of the board to the State board of education, after a thorough review of data supplied by H. L. Smith, dean of Indiana University School of Education, in general charge of the work. Will Give Details The report from New York, expected in a few days, will give details of last year’s educational experimentation in Indiana. Last year at this time the general education board reported supervised pupils progressed 14 per cent more than unsupervised ones. The coming report will cover experiments In 1924-1925. Financed by B i.-d Financed by the education board, supervised training is being given in Johnson and La Grange Counties. Dean Smith was allowed by the university to give part of his time to the work. Skilled educational observers were assigned to Rush and Whitley Counties, regarded educationally as representative of Indiana, and a close check was taken on the comparative progress of pupils. The figures tend to bear out the contention of State educators that public schooling is more effective on a county basis than under the township unit plan.

New Indianapolis Distributor for Chrysler Cars Is Praised

. .. -v

Praise of Carl H. Wallerlch, newly appointed distributor or Chrysler automobiles for Indianapolis and central Indiana, is expressed by J. E. Fields, vice president charge of sales for the Chrysler Sales Corporation. Wallerlch occupies sales rooms at 950-958 N. Meridian St., the former home of the Condultt Motor Car Company, previous Chrysler distributors. “That a man of Wallerich’s standing has sought the Chrysler distributorship in Irulfanapolis Is a splendid tribute to Chrysler quality and leadership. No less is the entrusting of Chrysler prestige Into his hands a high tribute to Mr. Wallerlch and his fine organization,” Fields said. Wallerlch, In commenting on his securing of the Chrysler franchise, declared himself as being most dnthiisiastic concerning both present and future possibilities for his company with that franchise. “Included in the Chrysler line s os cars are three outstanding contributions to the entire field of automo-

SCHOOL HELPS

f OME of the most daring feats 1 1 I of engineering have been I * [ the construction of tunnels beneath rivers, through mountains, und under great cities. The streets of some of our cities are underlaid by veritable networks of such passageways. There are tunnels for sewers, gas* mains, and electric wires; tunnels for acqueducts in great water supply systems; tunnels for under-river traffic, as in Chicago; and tunnels or sub-ways for rapid subsurface transportation, as in London. Paris and New York, where millions of people dally whiz in roaring trains and tramway cars back and forth through serpentine “tubes.” The first step in tunnel construction is to prepare a geological map showing the nature Os the earth to be penetrated, the probability of encountering water, etc., for upon these difficulties the cost of construction depends largely. Then a guide line for excavating, called the tuiyiel “center line,” is established by surveyors. Next the difference in elevation between the two ends Is ascertained;*the shape and inside dimensions are decided upon, and then the excavating begins. Open-cut tunnels are often constructed by first removing the overlying material (by open excavating if on land or by dredging if under water), completing the tunnel structure, and then refilling over lt. Open-cut tunnels are often used In constructing subways. Large tunnels are seldom driven as one big hole; that is, the whole area of a cross-section is seldom removed at onpe. Instead, the cross section is divided into several segments and these art started one at a time. Th us severt 1 gangs can work at once, the first gang to start always being farthest along. Top Supported The sides and top of a tunnel are usually supported by a lining, even in bard rock. Temporary lining is always set up when working in soft material, to prevent "cave-ins,” and is replaced by the permanent lining ss the work progresses. In such cases, the first structure is of timbers and cross-timbers. The permanent masonry—brick, stone or concrete —may be from one to five feet thick, the greater thickness being used In such soft, heavy material as wet clay and sand. Cast iron lining is sometimes used, particularly in tunnels at . considerable depths below the surface of water. The Iron is made in cylindrical sections from two to alx feet long and tne or two inches thick, and these are bolted together when put In place. Sometimes they are further lined with masonry. Small dump or tram care carry out the excavated material. Often vertical holes or shafts, braced with timber, are sunk from the surface so as to attack the excavation from additional points, the work being extended both ways from where the ■haft Is sunk. Men, materials and tools are raised and lowered through shafts In power elevators. Sometimes the shafts are filled In again after the work Is completed; sometimes they are left permanently for ventilating the tunnel. Occasionally the digging of a tunnel starts at each end, the workmen meeting In the center. In the Rogers Pass tunnel, British Columbia, a small “pioneer tunnel” was driven first. “Sidecuts” were then made and gangs worked from their ends to build the main tunnel. Rasy to Cut Rock Hard rock Is the easiest material to tunnel through, as It Is easily broken up by blasting, and the masonry lining may usually be completed without much timbering. Submarine tunneling is more difficult. If the water which seeps down into the excavation cannot be kept out by pumping, use must bp made of compressed air. or a shield, or both. The shield, one of the most valuable of engineering inventions, is a steelplate cylinder or shell, from 6 to 30 feet In length and 40 to 80 tons in weight, inside of excavation and the construction of the tunnel lining is'carried on. Thus the inrush of water and soft material during the excavation is prevented. Inside the shield Is a vertical bulkhead partition or diaphragm with openings whose doors can be quickly closed if necessary. Through these, laborers excavate the njaterial in front of the shield, taking lt out

biles,” said Wallerlch. “Chrysler offers to the buyer, in its Models "SS* and ‘79,’ two cars that have practically revolutionized the entire automotive industry within two years. In Its Imperial ‘Bo’ lt has brought out a new conception of the ‘finest that money can buy’ that Is oeftain to establish it in the forefront of all motor cars within the next few months. “Every purchaser Interested In an automobile between the prices of #845 ind #1,695 Is a prospect for a Chrysler autoraohile.’’ Complete showings of the various Chrysler models now am on display at the company’s showrooms. These include roadster, phaeton, club coupe, coach and sedan in the Mode) ‘6B’-, phaeton, roadster, coach, sedan, royal coupe, brougham, royal sedan and crown sedan In the Model ‘7o,’ and phaeton, roadster, four passenger coupe, five and seven passenger sedans and sedan limousine In the new Imperial ’Bo.’ Wallerlch formerly waa distributor in Inlianapolls for Dodge Brothors and trucks.

TUNNELS AND SUBWAYS Tliey Make Rapid Travel Possible.

in the rear. The forward end of the cylinder is a strong cutting edge; and as the digging proceeds, the shield is thrust forward into the soft earth by the power of the hydraulic jacks; and the tunnel lining within the rear of the cylinder, the latter always overlapping the completed lining by several feet. In the compressed air system the end of the tunnel where the digging is going on Is filed with air under sufficiently great pressure to keep water from entering. A method much used in the United States at small depths under river bottoms consists in constructing cylindrical steel sections, closing their ends with wooden bulkheads, then floating them into position and sinking them into a trench dredged In the river bottom. The sections are successively joined and lined with concrete inside and out. This was the system used in the tunnels built under the Harlem River for the New York subway tracks. Tunnel building is one of the oldest engineering operations. It was practiced by most ancient people, including the Egyptians and natives of India, who built them for tombs and temples; the Assyrians, and even the Aztecs In America. All the work was done by hand and so was infinitely slow and laborious.

Grover Cleveland Bergdoll, on charges of immoral behavior, was deemed today In some quarters an attempt to get Germany to depuri him. While the extradition treaty between America and Germany is not* yet in effect, lt is pointed out that Germany, if It desired, could take him to its borders and order htm not to return. It waa suspected that the present arrest might be linked with a maga zine or newspaper “enterprise” ma neuver, or perhaps be engineered by American ex-service men, who have long desired to “get” the dodger.
