Ratifications of
Treaty Exchanged
i With Geraany
1
remottjr Which Brings Rt
turn of Friendly Relations
With' United State
Held in Berlin.
Berlin. No.. 12 (Bl The Asso
ciated I'rcst.) Rat fictions of the
vicniiaii-mcucan peace treaty were
excnangca nere last merit at the lor
eign oflice between Ellis Lorina
Dresel, the 'American commissioner
and Dr. Karl Wirth, chancellor and
iiiin-stcr of foreign affairs.
. The ceremony, which mean a re
turn of friendly relation! between
Germany and the United Statit, took
place at 6:30 o'clock yesterday after-
roon. It consumed lest than live
minutes.
Thia came by telephone late yes
terday afternoon and the American
. commissioner, accompanied by Fred
erick R. Dolbeare, secretary ci the
American mission, motored to the
loreign oltice, where they were re
ceived by Dr. Wirth and Dr. Han-el
Von Haimhausen, undersecretary
for foreign affairs.
' Signed In Duplicate
.Both plenipotentiaries signed in
duplicate, the protocol certifying
that the ratifications had been duly
executed. The duplicate copy of
the treaty containing Germany s rat
ifying preamble, which will test in
the archives of the State department
at Washington' is bound in dark red
leather and tied with ribbons repre
senting the republican colors of Ger
riny. It bears the signatures
Ehert" and "Wirth."
The preamble is considerably
briefer than that of the copy which
Mr. Dresel delivered to the German
government. It merely records the
fact that the authortative bodies of
Germany have approved the treaty,
and the president of Germany pledges
its fulfillment.
Article 3 of the peace treaty pro
vides that the treaty "shall take ef
fect immediately. on the exchange of
ratifications." Article 3 reads:
"Th nrMn trpatv filial! rati-
fied in accordance with the constitu
tional forms of the high contracting
parties ind shall take effect im
mediately on the exchange of ratifi
cations, which shall take place as soon
as possible at Berlin"
. Advance in Price of
Canned Goods Expected
Chicago, Nov. 12. Wishing one
end all a happy new year, the west-
ern canners beg to advise that the
price of canned goods of every de
scription will be sharply advanced
about January 1 perhaps an aver
age of 20 per cent.
T. ; canners are in convention In
Chicago and say the pack this year,
principally of beans, peas, corn, to
matoes, fruits and salmon, will be
about 7,000,000 cases short, or 168,-
000,000,000 tans. Of the vintage of
' 1920, which totalled 15,000.000 cases,
very little is left. The normal con
sumption in the United States alone
as 12.000,000 cases:
not canned. Packers said prices were
slumping so rapidly and deeply that
they could not go ahead on the usual
scale.

Separation Pact
May End Divorce
Fight of Farrar
Rumors of Settlement Out of
Court Heard in Connection
Of Suit Filed by Prima
Donna.
r.,u Vorl- Uw 1? Tti revela
tion Thursday that Gcraldine Farrar)
prima donna, has brought a divorce
action against Lou Tellcgen, was
followed yesterday by an intimation
from friends of the two stars that
a separation agreement, drafted cut
of court, will end the case. In that
event, charges of misconduct made
by the singer and of incompatibility
made by Mme. Bernhardt's former
leading man, probably, will remain
forever sealed.
The case, even if it comes to trial,
promises to be one of considerable
mystery. Justice Guy of the su
preme court has ordered all of the
papers sealed. It is hinted the trial,
if there is one, may be held in pri
vate before a referee. . But in pri
vate or open court, it is said,
chapters from the life of ' a great
matinee idol will be read into the
case in event the divorce action is
tried.
"Mash" notes, "mash" . dinners,
admiring feminine crowds and all
the atmosphere of flattery which
surrounds the handsome leading
man on tour will be exposed, it is
said, when Miss Farrar's attorneys
start going through their hand
picked list of corespondents." The
handsome Tellegen, idol of Paris
studios before he took to the stage
and idol of many a theater audience
afterward, was not inclined to give
up all this idolization after his mar
riage, according to Miss Farrar's
complaint. This angle of the charges
is held to explain the reported large
number of widely scattered core
spondents named by the grand opera
star.
She charges that his audiences on
tour, always- largely composed of
women, frequently translated then
admiration into personal attentions.
Her array of corespondents was
chosen from the throng of these fem
inine admirers. On each of het
charges she asserts Tellcgen was
more responsive to such admiration,
than his duty to her permitted.
Tellegen had filed a denial of all
Miss Farrar's charges.
