Tickets Go Fast;
Most EUery One
Buys 81 Packet
Supplies Run Out on Some
Car Lines Before Trip Is
Completed.

Confusion resulted during the rush
hours today from the attempt of the In
dianapolls Street Railway Company to
change the rate Of fare from cents
straight to cents cash and twenty tick
cts for ST.
In many cases the demand for tickets
was so great that conductors exhausted
the supply long before they had made
round trips.
r. I. Todd, president of the company,
declared the demand for tickets was
larger than anticipated, but he believed
that as the day progressed confusion
would be less and the demand could be
met
Every conductor was supplied on each
trip with tickets which were thought
sufficient to take care Of the business on
each round trip" Mr.. Todd said. "In
cases where conductors ran out Of tick
cts the demand was greater than antici-
pated."
The contention Of some Of the members
Of the public service commission that %
per cent Of the passengers would pay
cash fares was referred to.
100 PER CENT
BUYS TICKET.
/ 1T looks more Ike 100 per cent are
/ buying tickets Mr.. Todd declared.
Shortage Of tickets during the rush
hours was reported particularly on the
/ Illinois and the Northwestern lines where
/ in many cases conductors. were collecting
cash fares exclusively. Most passengers
refused to pay more than cents in eases
wheer they were refused tickets. Most
Of the conductors accepted the nickels
without question, but some or them
insisted on the extra cent.
The situation on a Falrview car arrtv-
ing at Illinois and Washington streets al
1 : 30 o'clock may be typical
( At Thirty Fifth street a passenger re-
ceived the last strip Of twenty tickets
The man who stepped on directly be
hind him held out 81.
/ No tickets left" the conductor In
formed him.
What shall I do about it," the pas
senEer asked.
Use your own judgment" said tho
conductor, Il haven't any instructions on
the subject
The passenger offered a dime.
How much shall I take outF" asked
the conductor.
oh make it 6 cents," the passenger re
piled, I'm be a sport"
SOME RIDE
/ FOR NOTHING.
But Ii was not this easy with all the
I passengers. The next man who stepped
on board and was denied tickets offered
/ the conductor nickel and told him that
was all ne would pay. The conductor
accepted it without q word. Some OF
the passengers refused TO pay at all and
I this too seemed satisfactory to the con
ductor For the most part he accepted
cents In payment Of fare.
The tickets being used are those th'
I company had left when tickets were dis
continued and the straight scent rat,
OF fare luausurated. The tickets origi
ually were put up twenty FIVE in a pack
age. The company has a large number
/ OF employees engaged In opening these
/ packages and tearing i've tickets from
each strip for the new quantity sales

The fact that conductors were running

Speeches.
HOWE DEFENDS MACHINE

Goaded by the public criticism that

Thomas C. Howe, former president
Of Butler College and News7Jewett
candidate for the Republican mayor

defense of the crumbling city hall
machine.
The professor publicly opposed the
abandonment Of the municipal asphalt re-
pair plant, which has been advocated
with telling effect by Edward J. Robson,
and promised that If he is elected he viii
see that It is operated in an economical
manner.
The announcement of Mayor Jewett
that he is personally going to take the
stump in an effort to bolster up the
waning cause of his candidate. drew
series of embarrassing questions from
Samuel Lewis Shank today. Mr.. Shank
made public the interrogatories and an
/ nounced that he expected the mayor to
I reply, inasmuch as they relate to very
/ important part Of the Jewett admins

is on trial for its life in the present

when a retiring mayor seeks to name
his successor 1t is only logical to ex-
I pect he will select a man who will see
/ things as be sees them" said Mr. Shank.
/ Therefore, in such a case the reasons
which led the sponsor into action during
/ his term become Of vital interest to yo-

| II shall expect clear and comprehensive
answers to the following questions and
feel sure that thousands Of other citi-
zens viii do likewise:
/ "Why, Mr.. Mayor, did you invest Sl75,-

plant. which had been assessed for tax
