Although the speed average for the
total flight was not so strikingly in
contrast with other recent events, this
race was undoubtedly the fastest in
history In various spurts. With the
terrific speed which the leaders I'M

the participants. The result was Sc
ries OF accidents which recalled the
earliest days of American speedway
racing.
First, the casualties befell the Thur
man special car, driven by Arthur
Thurman OF Washington, d. c., which
got out Of his control on the upper
turn in the forty-fifth lap and turned
over killing Thurman and critically
injuring M. Molinaro, his mechanic.

the Roamer car of Louis Lecocq OF
Los Angeles. which, in its ninety-sixtn
lap, got out of control entering the
back stretch and turned over, pinning
Lecocq and his mechanic, r. Bandini,
under the wreckage, which immediate
" burst into flames. LecocQ and Ban
DIM were so badly burned that their
bodies are almost unacceptable.
The third casualty befell the Ballot

sagne. This car hit the retaining wall
at the head OF the home stretch. throw
ing out Chassagne and his mechanic.
The driver escaped injury, but the me-
chanic was hurt about the head.

FEDERAL WIRE CONTROL ENDS
 AT. MIDNIGHT
BurIeSOn Takes Parting Shot
 At Postal Co. In Issuance
 Of Order; LaudS Others For ' Giving "LoyaI Cooperation"

WASHINGTON, July 30.-Govern- ment control of telegraph and tele- phone properties will end at midnight tomorrow night. Orders for their re- turn to private ownership were issued today by Postmaster General Burle- son as required in resolution adopt ed by congress and signed by Presi- dent Wilson ten days ago.
 Mir. Burleson in statement accom- panying his order, said sound public opinion ultimately would determine how this trust has been met" and that he was content to abide by the results. Besides this reply to criti- cisms of his management of the wire companies, the postmaster general also took parting shot at the Postal Telegraph company, most of the off, cers of which were relieved several months ago because of what he term ed interference with government man. agement.
 The postmaster general did not mention the company by name, but said that with one notable exception the reason for which is thoroughly understood by those who have kept informed" every wire company had given him loyal cooperation"
 Under the resolution of congress di- recting the return of the companies properties, government-fixed intra- state telephone rates are to remain in force for period of four months, un- less sooner changed by states commit tees, but no provision was made as to telegraph rates.
 Clarence H. Mackay, president of the Postal company, in urging con gress to provide for speedy return of the properties, said his company could reduce rates 20 per cent and still earn profit.
 Control of the wire companies was taken over by the postmaster general as war measure on July 22, 1918, un- der resolution of congress. Admin lstratton of the affairs of the compa- nfes by the postmaster general led to sharp criticism in recent months and this found expression in congress when the resolution for their return to private management was consid- cred
 In his statement today, the post. master general said his Iabors were brought to an end with a conscious- ness on his part of having at all times administered the wire system with justice and fairness to the employees and the owners of these properties and ln such way as to render the best service possible to the general puDlc under normal conditions"

DOUGLAS, Ariz., July 30.-Ac- counts of the activities of the l. w w. in the Warren district, preceding and during the strike at Bisbee two years ago were again given in the local justice court today during the preliminary hearing of Gerald Sher- man, consulting engineers of the Phelps Dodge interests, and one of the defendants in the Kidnapping charges preferred against 25O Doug las and Bisbee citizens. as the re- suit of the alleged activities during the deportations that followed the I. W. W. trouble at Bisbee.
 Prosecutor Sees Impeachment
 During the morning session of the court the county attorney charged that the attorneys for the defense were going too far in the questions asked states witnesses during cross examination. The county attorney vigorously objected to questions put to one of his witnesses regarding an alleged application for membership in the I. W. w, stating that the questions were meant as efforts by the defense to lay grounds for inn peachment proceedings against the witnesses when the cases reached the superior court. At the conclusion of an argument between the attor- neys. Justice w. c. Jack. who is con- ducting the hearing, directed that if any impeachment were to be made against the states witnesses, such charges would have to be made be- fore the witnesses in question pass from the jurisdiction of the local court.
 The Western Federation of Miners. which practically ceased .5 1Nist at Bisbee, when the I. w. w. attempted to take charge of the labor situation in the Warren district, was termed an organization controlled by "com- pany men" by George Rice, one of the states witnesses, who withdrew from the American Federation of La bor, to join the I. W. W. Rice said he had joined the I. w. W. because it appeared to be the only good union"
 Not Strike of Miners Federation
 Ivan Johnson, another witness for the prosecution, said during cross ex- animation that the Western Fedora tion of Miners had no hand in calling or prosecuting the strike in Bisbee that preceded the deportations.
 The I. W. w., said the witness, was in complete charge of the walkout.
