occurred on the. lines of the Capital
Traction Company Saturday and Sun
Gay, the first two days of the new rate
Of fare cents. or four tickets for
rs cents.
vice president of the companysx said
he did not believe a fair conclusion
as to the effect of the increased fare
co3ld be reached in less than ten
days or two weeks of its operation.
Air Hanna said he arrived at the
estimate of 10 per cent by comparing
the two days with the other Satur-
Gays and Sundays of October.
w. B. & E. Not Ready to Report.
William F. Ham, president OF the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company. said he has not yet received
figures of operations since Saturday
that are definite enough on which to
fic-on these lines has fallen OF or in
creased. He said he would analyze
the figures. however, as soon as they
are available.
Nil. Ham called attention. however.
to the general use of tickets. which
means that the companies will not
get many 1-cent fares. The cost of a
ticket Is 6k cents. He said he could
not say at this time whether his COM
pany will get the revenue it needs
il the public generally buys tickets in
stead OF paying cents straight.
