Average Stock Prices
Aver nee prion of twenty industrial stock for Tuesday was 136.91, up .08. Average price of twenty rail stocks for Tuesday was 105.23. off .00. Bu United Press NEW YORK, April 20.—Financial interest at the opening of the market this morning was centered on the announcement from Paris that Premier Briand had Informed the French cabinet of a preliminary agreement for funding the French debt to the United States. However the intlence of this development was tempered by the statement given out in Washington by Secretary Mellon denying that a tentative agreement had been reached with the French government but intimating that a working basis for settlement of the debt had been decided upon. Prospects of progress in this line helped the speculative sentiment and active stocks displayed a fairly good tone in the early dealings. Stocks lost many of the early gains around noon as a wave of profit taking swept through list, bringing down many of the issues which had shown advances. There were strong spots, however, which were unaffected by the declines. Trading was on a small scale. Federal Mining and Smelting dropped 11 points, opening at 81 and receding to TO in a series of large drops.

April 20. —Grain prices higher on • the Chicago Board of Trade today. Foreign demand appeared to be the factor that gave the local market the boost. A sharply higher opening in all deliveries of wheat here was not unexpected inasmuch as Liverpool had I opened decidedly above its previous | close as also did Buenos Aires. Tile impression that world’s shipments are below the European demand was shown in the British market by the demand there for Australian and Argentine wheat here. This in turn was reflected in a bullish way on the Chicago pit. Corn opened friSc.tionally higher along the line. This grain acquired more of its strength from wheat than from any natural demand of its own. Oats borrowed strength from the other grains and opened fractionally higher in all but the September delivery which remained unchanged. Chicago Grain Table —April 20— WHEAT— Prey. High.

RGAD COST CUT BV COMPETITION Hope to Pave 50 Miles More Than Anticipated. Asa result of coir petition among contractors and the resultant decrease in road pa\ mg costs, the State highway commission will be able this year to pave approximately fifty miles more highway than was anticipated, it was learned today. Early this year the commission announced plans to pave 250 miles at a cost of about $30,000 a mile. This would have entailed a $7,600,000 budget. Xew paving jobs contracted thus far arc averaging a little less than $25,000 a mile, which will mean a balance of about $1,250,000 after the regular program is under contract.

One of the roads slated for improvement with the balance is the unpaved portion of Ril. 39, the Rushville Rd, east of the Marion County line, it was learned.

Exiled Opera Star, in Overalls, Sings as He Toils on Liner
Alexander Znamensky
VANCOUVER, B. C., April 20. The voice of Caruso lives and sings again, in the carpenter's shop aboard the big Atlantic liner. Empress of Canada, where Alexander Znamensky, formerly of Moscow Opera Company, wields a busy hammer and fills tho ship with classical melody. * The singer, a man without a country, has learned his song well, in the palaces of Russia’s old nobility, in prison, in war's brave deeds, in th<- rice paddies of China where he worked with coolies, in bleak, pov-erty-lashed Siberia. Alexander Znamensky is from one of old Russia's noblest families. Today lie is first assistant to the ship’s carpenter aboard the Canadian Pacific steamer.
Since habyhood he studied music, looking forward to the day when the honors of Russia's Imperial Ballet and Opera would be his. Then, just as his prize came near, the war snatched it away. He fought as a captain during the early days of the struggle, was wounded and sent back. Then the Revolution cracked the pedestals of tho mighty in Russia and Znamensky’s chance was gone. For a year only the cold walls of a prison heard his song. A fellow-officer, pardoned, died in the cell with Znamensky on the eve of release. Znamensky changed into his clothes, walked forth free, but only to become a wanderer on the face of the earth. Fleeing Petrograd (now Leningrad), he suffered the tortures of a Siberian winter. With a crowd of refuges he reached Shanghai in 1921, in semidelirium from fever. He labored as a coolie, living in sheds, wearing what he could find to wear —existing, but barely. A strike last year caused Canadian Pacific liners to call for volunteer crews. Znamensky volunteered. Now the passengers on tho Empress of Canada stop and listen when his great voice comes booming up from a lower deck where Znamensky works with pliers and chisel and hammer. They call him Caruso and Znamensky is happy. He is among people now who understand his song. Under the Canadian immigration act, persons desiring to enter Canada must produce passports from the land of their citizenship. A special permit from Ottawa is won only after long investigation. Until arrangements of this kind can be made Znamensky remains a man without a country, a grand opera singer in a ship's carpenter shop.

Proposal for the dismissal of a $150,000 suit on bond pending Jn Superior Court Two against George A. Weaver & Son. contractors, who con structed two wings to Julietta, coun ty insane asylum, and for presenta tion of the matter to the .State board of accounts for arbitration, was admitted today by County Commission ers Cassius L. llogle and Charles O. Sutton. llogle said a conference was held about three weeks ago with Merle N. A. Walker, attorney for the Wear ers, when it was “mutually agreed’’ the accounts board would be consulted.
