MOTOR TRAVEL
IS INCREASING
Hoosiers Used 7 Per Cent
More Gas in 1885
Than in 1884.

Motorists drove more miles over
Indiana highways in 1885 than in
1884, figures compiled by Todd
Stops, secretary-manager of the
Hoosier Motor Club, indicated to-
day.
Gasoline consumed in Indiana in
1885 was 1851 900 gallons, as COM
pared to 465,438Oo gallons in 1884.
This is a gain of 7 per cent, Mr..
Stops said.
Gasoline consumption, one of the
best indicators of tourist travel, rose
to new high level in many Sec
tions of the country during the year
Just closed. Total consumption for
the United States as a whole was
1854, 100000 gallons compared with
16,595, 100000 gallons in 1884, gain
of more than 1,000,000,000 gallons, -
Mr.. Stops said
This increased consumption
coupled with higher gas rates in
several states, resulted in sharp
increase in total gasoline tax col
lections. Total Federal, state and
local gasoline taxes during the past
year are estimated at $804, 800, 900,
the highest gasoline tax collection
total in the history of motor trans
