INCREASE IN FEES
Is Probable for Registration of Letters
and Mail Packages,

Washington. Aug. 26.-An increas Sc
of two cents is to be made in the near
future in the fee for the resignation
of letters and mail packages.
Announcement of the proposed
change was made today by Postmaster
General Hitchcock. The decision of Mn.
Hitchcock to increase the registry fee
followed an extended inquiry into the
registry system by a special commit
toe appointed by the postmaster gen.
eral.
Mr.. Hitchcock believes that the SER
vice may be placed on a more business
like basis without working undue hard
ship or imposing unreasonable burdens
on the public.
In his talk with number of the del
egates who attended the recent annual
convention of the National Association
of First Glass Postmasters at Toledo,
Mr.. Hitchcock learned they were al
most unanimously of the opinion that
ali increase to 10 cents would not be
opposed when it was understood that
the government was losing several
million dollars at the present rate.
BY law the postmaster general is an
thorized to make the registry fec as
high as 20 cents.

Indianapolis. Ind. Aug. 26-Corone1
blackwell yesterday made public the
astimony of Carl G.. Fisher. president
f the Motor Speedway Co., in the
asses of William Bourque and Harry
Iolcomh, killed at the speedway in the
aces of Aug. 10.
Fisher said the track was in good
nndition when the lace started. He
omitted that there was a bad place
there the track crossed a ditch but
c was sure that it >had no part in
lie wreck as the car was going 20 miles
IN hour when the axle plates broke.
rhe coroner then asked Fisher if they
lid not put on the races before the
rack was finished.
TO this Fisher answered in the af-
firmative.
"You were expecting an accident of
some kind. were you not?' the coro-
uer continued.
Yes sir" was the reply.
"And for that reason you had the
hospital built there?"
Eyes sir"
Fisher declared, however, that the
track would never be in perfect shape
as a gang of men was constantly kept
busy making repairs when the racers
were not on the track.
