MAY USE BURNER METHOD.
District Considers New Plan for

The engineer department of the District
Is contemplating the use of the new

In the west and has resulted in a saving
in that a considerable portion Of the old

work can accomplish resurfacing at q
cost considerably less than half that Of
the present method.

which is dropped over the portion of
pavement to be repaired. Hot moist air
is forced upon the pavement underneath
this hood until the pavement Is heated
and softened to q temperature of about
26O degrees.
The hood is then raised and from the
top of the old pavement thus softened Is
removed q quarter to q half inch of the
dead surface. to which latter Is added
sufficient new material to build up the
section. This material Is rolled and
compressed similarly as In the case of
new construction.
BY successive heating over the length
material is removed and new material
placed and q construction secured that Is
thought to be almost as good as new con-
struction.
The saving by the method results in the
fact that considerable portion of the
old material is used rather than as at
present cut out and hauled to the dumps.

noticeable decrease in the number of pet
dogs to be seen on promenade with their

nesses were called to corroborate the
testimony given. There was some inter-
est toward the end of the session. when
the prosecution put on the stand Miss
Julia NJ. Wolfe, a stenographer for the
Knickerbocker Trust Company. An ef-
fort was made by the prosecution to have
stenographic notes taken by the young
woman of a conversation between Mr..
Morse and Mr.. Schurman. the latter
counsel for the Knickerbocker. The de-
tense objected. on the ground that the
conversation took place after the dates
on which Morse and Curtis are charged
with violation Of the banking laws. The
prosecution intimated that the reading of
the stenographer's notes would be much
in the line of a confession. Judge Hough
said that he would require time to pass
upon the question of admitting the notes
and asked the lawyers for both sides to
submit briefs.

WARNED BY THE CONTROLLER
RTnerI,Y FORESAW FAILURE
OF THE MORSE BANK.
Wrote Letters Against Practice OF
Making Loans to the Officers
and Directors.

NEW YORK, October A.-There were
three important developments yesterday
| in the Joint trial Of Charles w. Morse and
Alfred H. Curtis, who are charged with
conspiracy and violation of the federal
banking laws in the management OF the
defunct National Bank of North America
First, the prosecution produced letters to
show that Controller of the Currency
Ridgely had foreseen the impending fail
ure Of the bank and that he had written
a number of letters to Morse and Curtis
warning them against making such large
loans on what he termed unsubstantial
collateral to the officers and directors OF
the bank. especially naming the loans
made to Morse enterprises. Mr.. Ridgely
said in one of his letters that the Morse
| interest at one time owed the bank
So, 51O,7j4 10, the loans to the Morse
steamship companies alone amounting 70

Next the prosecution presented evidence
to show that a large loan made by the
bank to Miss Katherine w. Wilson. MT
Morse's secretary. had been paid In part
lby profits coming out of the financing OF
provement-" The profits. Edward B.
Wire. former cashier Of the bank. said
should have gone to the bank. but, he tes-
titled, Mr.. Curtis and Mr.. Morse had ar
ranged SO that the prOntS went 10 cover
part of the Wilson loan"
Third, the prosecution had Mr.. Wire
testify regarding a note for $2OO.OOO de-
posted with the Knickerbocker Trust
Company, one Of the institutions that
went to the wall during the financial
panic. In tracing this note 1t was shown
by banking records that after passing
through the Knickerbocker Trust Com
pany It bobbed up in the Bank Of Com
merce as a credit to 'E. B. Wire"
At this point Government Bank Exam
liner Edward Moxey was called to the

to finance the Morse steamship undertake
ings Mr.. Moxey traced payment OF in
terest on the 100000 to show that the
interest OF per cent had been charged
against the accounts of the National Bank
of North America. No debit against Mr..
Wires personal account could be found.
Mr.. Wire. recalled. said that Mr. Morse
and Charles T. Barney. the late president
Of the Knickerbocker Trust Company. had
asked him to sign the note. saying the
proceeds would be used to finance a deal
in steamship stock. Mr.. Wire said that
after making the note he turned check
for the amount over to Miss Wilson. He
said that later he received stock of the
New York and Cuban Steamship Com
pany "a Morse concernl from Mr.. Morse
to the amount Of 500 600. and later. when
the Consolidated Steamship Company was
