Continuation Of the Testimony or Sur>
veyor Edward Boylc-Thc Difficulties
of His Work-No Previous Surveys to
Work On.
Yesterday was the seventh day Of the Refereeh
examination into the cost Of widening the Kings
bridge road, and the testimony OF Edward Boyle,
the Surveyor, was continued. There were present.
besides Mr.. Pritchard the Referee, host OF coun-
sci, John T. MCGOWAN and Henry Parsons Com
mlssioners, and Mr.. Boyle and his counsel, Mr..
Halves; d. D. Lord and G. Mattsall on the part OF
the property owners, andMr. Hawkins on the part
OF the Comptroller. Mr.. Sinclair, for the Corpora
ton Counsel, was not present yesterday, owing
Boyle was OF great length, and lasted from eleven
A. NJ until late in the afternoon. In the course OF
the examination he testified to the manifold dill
sed OF maps having no definite boundaries. He
said that property north Of 155th street had
had any reliable surveys made OF 1t; that he had
marks, the maps on record containing few
or no dimensions, which necessitated distinct
surveys OF each property, with difficult calculations
He also showed that his finished damage map con-
sists OF d series Of double lots requiring quadrupe
care to find all dimensions. Mr.. Boyle then showed
the differences between his map and the Western
Boulevard map, which appears to consist in the
Kingsbrdge road being on an old established road,
with property fronting on both sides, whereas the
Western Boulevard runs through well established
farms, having some order on both sides, so that
each lot requires but two lines to be definitely de-
fined on the map. Mr.. Boyle added in the course
OF his examination that the outlay from his private
funds I'm this matter Is ut least $4,000 1t appears
that there Is some difficulty between himself and
the Comptroller, and that he expects he shall have
to fight hard for the money.
The testimony Of Mr.. Boyle will be continued this
morning, and 1t is expected that the case before the

Fort No. /, NEAR THE MOUTH OF JAxARTEsl

As was lying indoenty on the dvan yesterday
afternoon, reading In Horace about the "Parthos
feroccs AMI the "fabulosus Hydaspes," and dream
ing between the lines OF Genghiz and Tamerlane
and the glories of Samarcand, the faithful Ak-Ma-
metef came in and told me that three OF the Rus
sian slaves from Khiva. old pals OF his had come to
see him. j at once offered to stand the tea and
Uodta, and when they got we'll going went in to
hear their s.pries.
All three were fair-hared blue-eyed men. but
burned by exposure to the sun to u dark brown
color. Their dress was half Russian, half Asiatic
for they the crimson cotton khatats or dress
ing gowns which had been presented TO them at
their departure by order OF the Khan. 1t being
Eastertide had to comply with the universal
Russian custom and give each OF them three
kisses. got through it as best could, and then
sitting down
ASKED FOR THE TALES.
One, Roman Andreef SukhorukoH, about forty
years old, was soldier In the Orenburg army, and
was captured In 1869, near Kirgneez, having been
sent out from the fort to find forage for some
horses. The other TWO, Ivan ospoff Burnashefr
and Pave Nic0laief Zotof, were clerks from Oren-
burg and were also taken in 1899, together with q
third, who by some chance was sent along with the
Khivan embassy OF last year, and thus freed. To-
tor is but young fellow, and was boy OF fifteen
when captured. Burnashen was the chief spokes-
man, aud will give what he said, as far as posi-
Bile, In his own words, emitting the many questions
/ had to put in order to draw him QUIT
BURNAsHEFF's STORY.
'In 1862 in the carly Spring, we were at Ak-Djul-
pas, a post station on the Aral Sea- north Of Fort
No /, In order to furnish beef TO the soldiers. A
small post had been established near there, aud
my father and (after his death) had contract to
supply all the garrisons Of the posts In this district
with beef. At this time there was great deal Of
dissatisfaction among the Kirgheezes for the gov
eminent was establishing some new regulations,
and among other Things made the taxes three
roubles on q ktbitka, instead OF one roublc and a
hall, as 1t was before. These Kirgheezes had been
worked on by men sent up from Khiva, and were
very discontinued, and when finally they rebeled
against our government they asked loy aid from
