Ralph Peters, President of the
Long Island Railroad Company
and Chairman of the Committee
on Railway Mail Pay, authorizes
the following statement:
Congress has passed the Bill
providing for the expenditures of
the Post Office Department for
the next year. This Bill, how
ever. fails once more to compen-
safe the railroads for carrying
the parcel post. The Bills based
upon estimates of the Post Office
Department that next yerr the
parcel post will handle 600, 100000
packages yielding a revenue to
the Post Office of $50, 100000.
The Postmaster General in his
annual report of December /,
1918, states that in view of the
prospective ''predigious growth
of the parcel post, the railroads"
of course will become entitled to
additional compensation for this
extra service imposed upon them
and the Department is engaged in
gathering all statistical data nee.
essary for ascertaining a correct
basis for fixing a just, fair and
adequate compensation for the
service rendered"
On February 18th, the Rail
roads Committee was advised by
the Post Office Department that
it had made recommendation to
Congress that ''on account of
the increased weight of mails"
due to the parcel post, the Post
master General should he author
lied to add to the Compensation
of the railroads not more than
one half of one per cent.
This recommendations would
have added only $3.50, 900 to the
mail pay of all the railroads in the
United States.
Congress took no action on the
recommendation, evidently con-
siderlng the proposal too trivial
for consideration, and preferring
to await the recommendation of
the Joint Congressional Commit
tee now investigating the whole
subject.
In Great Britain the railways
receive So per cent of the revenues
from the parcel post. Beforeithe
establishment of the parcel post
the railroads in this country re-
ceived, for transporting the mails
at least one-ffth of the Post Office
revenue. Assuming that their
service is no greater in handling
the parcel post that with other
mail, this increased revenue of
: $4,000, 900, to the post Office de-
apartment should ia all fairness
mean increased payments to the
railroads OF at least SIP, 100000.
Nevertheless. the appropria
tior bill passed by Congress pro
vides no payment to the railroad
beyond the provision already
made that FIVE percent might bt
I added to the pay of the railroad
on which there had not been 9
weighing since January Ist, 19l3
AT a tune when the Interstat
f. Commerce Commission is insist
+. ing that the railroads shall make ;
d fair charge for every service rem
$ dered, it seems in the highest de
/ gree unjust that no provisio

Three Matches Each Three Hours Long in All Corners Tour ament Wednesday-Evers and Zimmerman Start Fight at Chicago-Cubs Again Defeat Braves-Planters Have Easy Victory.

Newport. R. l., Aug 26.-Three matches each three hours long, lent unusual interest to the fourth round of the all-comers' tournament for the national singles lawn championship today. Thirteen of the contests in the round were settled in short order, twelve of them in straight sets. Three pairs, however, were too closely match ed for early decisions. G. H. Touch ard of the West Side club, New York, team and Longwood, through five long side of the net. Touchard won thirty three games and, Whitney thirty. F. c. Inman of the same club. West Side club, was compelled to play five sets comprising 62 games before he elin- mated H. c. Johnson, also of Long wood Cricket club. The third extend ed match was between Charles A. Major of Tampa, Fla, and Sidney Tay- Tor Jr., of Philadelphia, the former winning after playing 55 games.
 On the other hand the grand court match between the champion. M. E.. Mclaughlin and Irving c. Wright of Boston, who holds the southern cham pionship. was settled in 3S minutes for Wright won only three games.

BUILDING AND BUSINESS.
Eleven New Companies Incorporated
 in Connecticut During Last Week.

The record of real estate transac- tions in the larger towns in Connectl- cut reported in The Commercial Rec ord for last week, show slight in- crease over the like work of the year 1913, the number of sales being 29S this year, against 2sS last year. For the saMe week the mortgage loans amounted to SS21 ,946, as compared with $545,131 year ago.
 The bankruptcy record is not quite as favorable at the present time as for the third week of August in the previous years. The two petitions in bankruptcy filed in this State during the week have assets of $,974 and liabilities of $23.506. against nominal assets and liabilities the former years.
 Papers have been filed with the Secretary of State incorporating Il new companies during the week, with authorized capital stock of $26s. 900. The number is much greater than previous years, and the capitalization is somewhat less than last year, but greater than in 1911 and 1912.
 Statistics of building operations show an unusual total of permits granted in the cities of New Haven, Bridgeport, Hartford, Waterbury, New Britain, Stamford, West Haven and Springfield. the aggregate cost of the buildings for which permits were granted being nearly a million dollars It should be noted, however, that $500. 900 of this sum is for the new city hall in Waterbury. Comparing the four larger Connecticut cities, it is shown that the number of permits granted for the week in these places is 59, against 76 last year and 79 in 1912. The cost of the buildings foI which these permits were issued is $S59, 300 for the present year, s154,- 365. for 1913 and $302, ,035 for 1912.
 Among the projects for which con- tracts have been given out during the week, are, schools in Derby. Hartford and Meriden. bank building in New Haven, theater in New Britain, res idences in New Haven and Meriden addition to business block in New Haven, and coal pocket and business block in the same city. A number of one, two and three-family house: have been let this week in New Ha. ven, Bridgeport, Hartford, NeNS Brit. ain, Stratford. Ansonia, Derby ana Shelton.
 New plans reported for the weel include schools in Bridgeport and 2 convent in the same city, apartment block in New Haven. hall in Hartford store and apartments in Bridgeport and Stamford, one-family houses IT New London, four-family house ir Bridgeport and 12-family house 1T Hartford.

Change. at Broadway School.

The extensive changes that are be- ing made at the Broadway school in preparation of instruction in dogaes- tic science and manual training have been carried so rapidly that the inn provements will in all probability be completed in time for the opening of school. H. Blackledge & Company are progressing nicely with the car penter work and have the frames in for the large window space, which will include Is windows on one side end . doxen ea the other. The steel beams and columns have been put in and the cement floor has been poured so that the wooden floor can now be laid on top of it. The changes will make a fine home for the two new de- partments.
 Addition to Garage.
 An addition to the 4. C. Swan $ garage on Main street is being built by the Norwich Construction com pany, and after two weeks of work, 1t is getting pretty well along. It is a one story addition with dimensions 52 by 29 and its construction is rein forced concrete throughout. The con- crete floor has been poured this week.

ferent parts of the draw and while Mclaughlin is looked upon as a sure winner of the tournament, the other westerners are regarded as possible semi -fnalists. Z
 New York lost seven of the twelve players who started the round today and four of the six Bostonians also dropped out. Three Philadelphians are still in the running together with one each from Tampa and Newport.
 Of the players defeated in the ex- tra set matches, Whitney had the best chance of winning. Six times he was within a stroke of the match but lacked the necessary punch, to pull it off. Thayer, was three times within a stroke of victory, while Johnson was twice in a position where a place, or an error by Inman would have brought about another result.
 Play was begun today in. the inter scholastic championship with eight youngsters in the draw. They were selected at sectional school tourna- ments held under college auspices and represent Harvard, Yale. Princeton, Columbia, Pennsylvania, Chicago, Southern California and New York University.
 The big match tomorrow will be the struggle in the fifth round between Karl H. Behr, a member of the recent Davis cup team, who failed to get into the play, and R. L. Murray, the young Californian who was favored by many close followers of the game as a selection for the team.
