To Probe Cost Increase.
Washington, July 18 The Sen
ate today by unanimous consent
passed the resolution introduced
by Senator Smith, of South. Caro
lina, directing the Department of
Commerce to : investigate the
rise iri price of cotton bagging.
Senator -Smith charged that
the manufacture, of cotton bag
ging had gotten into the hands
of a trust which-recently had
advanced.the price to two cents
a yard, , ils--wQul3'net the man-
ufacturers $1,600,000 he said.
that
an
StoatQr,Bsan;isai4ne hoped
the Department- oV Justice wou d
take cognizance of the state
ments that a trust existed in
this industry and would; act
"pretty quickly' in the matter.
Nothing in the Rumor.
Washington, July" 1& Secre
tary of State Bryan today flatly
denied a rumor .current on the
New York stocl exchange that
he intends to resign because of
Ci ferenpes withthe president ov

"Such a report i8 absurd,' saidj
the I Secjetary of State. "I

Washingtoc: July 19.-Plnat
for the extension improvement,
find reduction in rates1 of ' s 'the
i. rui wenj auiiuuirceu tu-
day by- - Postmaster General Bur-;
lesoh. 1 The changes which " are
iaclude an increase from 1! lbs.1
to 20 pounds in the maximum 1
weight of parcels; a material
cuction in the postage rates yin
the first and second zones f and
tlie abOandonmerit'of the parcel
oit map as a means of coniDut-
ing rates and the substitution
? it of a rate chart individual
ilied to every postoffice in ' the
United States'. The plans'
template the purchase of a large
number of automobiles to be us
ed exclusively for the delivery of
parcel po3t matter. . '
f While, for the present, 4 the
maximum weight limit of 2
pounds and the reduction in rates
will apply only to the first and
second zones, from any given
postoffice a distance of about
150 miles the changes directed
today constitute the first long
step towards a universal exten
sion of the system and a gener
al ieluotion in the rates of pos
tage or parcel post matter.
"It is my expectation and be
lief," said Postmaster General
Lurleson, "that eventually and
mnir Trn 1K .nn On -rrnv. .V,
iovtal service .will handle pra(H?yHrH

maximum
weight Jimit, extended now from

ee increased to 100 pounds, and
experience may demonstrate the
practicability of handling the
