kettle is best.
Don't think you can hurry preserves; 1t
is out of the question to do so and yet
have them perfect.
Don't forget to rub the bottom Of the pre-
serving kettle freely with olive oil to pre-
vent sticking.
Don't pare peaches, pears, pineapples. or
even apples with a steel knifs; 1t darkens

peaches and all light colored fruit into a
bowl Of cold water as you do them to pre-
vent discoloration before cooking.

PARK CONTRACT ATTACKED
Gutzon Borglum Alleges Amount
Is 5000. Too Much.

taxpayers suit has been brought by
Gutzon Borglum, the sculptor, to restrain
the city from further action in the develop
ment of Fort Washington Park and the
Riverside Drive extension under the con-
tract which was let to John c. Rogers last
year, and asking for an Injunction against
further procedure pending the outcome of
the suit. The park extends from about
Hist street to 1sSd street. The suit is the
result of an investigation by the Parks and
Fairgrounds Association OF the City of New
York. of. which Mr. Borglum is q director.
Mr.. Borglum declares that the Board of
Estimate and the former Borough President
exceeded their powers in ignoring the juris-
diction of the Park Department and its
Landscape architect and that, inasmuch as
the plans of the work and improvement
were never instituted nor executed in any
way by officials of the Park Department
nor received the approval of the landscape
architect they are Illegal.
The amount of the contract is understood
to be about $4,000. which is al least 10000
more than the improvement should cost, in
the opinion of Mr.. Borglum. PhiIbin. Beck
man. Menken g. Griscom are his attorneys

WESTON FOR ISTHMUS NEXT
Panama People Want Him to
Come Down and Walk for Them.

According TO private advices received
here from Panama. the recent march OF
Edward Payson Weston from the Pacific 10
the Atlantic has caused the ocean to ocean
walking fever TO spread all over the 18TH
mus. The news of Weston's progress as he
tramped from Los Angeles to New York
City was watched with .eagerness in the
cities of Panama and Colon, as well as in
the various settlements in the Canal Zone
along the line of the Panama Railroad.
Walking in the tropics is not so easy as
in the temperate zone, and 1t is said that
plans have been considered to invite the
veteran pedestrian to walk across the 18TH
mus from the Atlantic to the Pacific and
back again, total distance of ninety-siX
miles 1t is contended that if the teams of
the isthnian league can play lively base
ball games on the isthmus, it will be no
great hardship for Mr.. Weston to give an
exhibition of walking that will make the
young athletes who have tried it look Ike
the proverbiaI three dimes. Many men
have tried the walk and have given 1t up
after the first sixteen or twenty miles.
The fastest time for the walk from Pan
anna to Colon. distance of forty-eight
miles. was made on May by Edward Sill
vey. of Colon, who covered the ground in
10 hours and 19 minutes, defeating ]. P
L. TAYLOR, of Ancon. The Mayor of Pan
anna started Mr.. Silvey on his way from the
American wharf to Colon at 5:l5 a m, and
Mr. TAYLOR at a. m The Mayor of Colon
met both men at the Fire Department
wharf at Colon in the afternoon, Mr. ray
lor's time being u hours and 20 minutes
The men were met by friends along the
route and cheered anal ice was handed to
them every three or four miles.

TO TURN GUNS ON HEIKE
Sugar Trial Testimony Next to
Bear on Company's Secretary.

Counsel for the government In the prose-
ciItion of Charles r. Heike, secretary OF tl'e
American Sugar Refining Company, ano
five former employees of the company
will take up the tracing OF the recoros OF
short weights I'm the trial this week. There
are still about thirty witnesses TO be called
The case has so far been concerned
nearly entirely with the weighing ana the
incidental recording of the weights. There
has been evidence showing knowledge OF
records in the office of the company, and
by the former superintendent of the reflr-
cry, but it still remains to be shown
whether this knowledge had TO do with
the frauds on the docks
The ground covered by the former trlai
has been gone over again, the new evidence
being the confession of the former checker,
Schwerdtfeger, to having used the spring.
That the. spring had been used had been
established before, but not in such a cir
cumstantal way.
1t was said yesterday that the trial would
occupy about two weeks more. Ihere Is
still to be brought out the government case
against Heike and Gerbracht, the former
superintendent of the refinery. This part
of the case will require testimony by the
accountants who have been employed Dy
the government on the books. The prose-
cution has had witnesses before the grand
Jury, and the result of this additional in
uuiry will be known in a few days.

issued Recruiting barracks were open then

Lets enlist said Clare to his chum.
"AlI right" replied Kelly, but you go in
first
Clare's chest girth did not come up to the
requirements, so they continued their walk
I'D Broadway to Lafayette Hall, another
recruiting station, between Houston and
Prince streets where Clare was accepted.
Kelly did not enlist.

THOUSANDS ROMP IN PARK
Slower Sees Open Door Policy in
Full Blast at Central.

There we're so many sets of lawn tennis
under way in Central Park for the greater
part Of yesterday that it was difficult for
the thousands of visitors who stopped to
watch the games TO tell where the bounds
of one court ended and another began.
Yesterday a week ago, the first Sunday of
tennis, found from fifteen to twenty-five
courts in use Yesterday there were fifty
nets stretched on the tennis field. Every
available space around the outskirts was
also utilized.
Among the many visitors to the park was
Commissioner Slower. Besides the tennis
games. the Commissioner saw dozen base
ball games under way in other parts of the
park. The greater number of these were
in the upper part and along the Central
Park West side.
But while tennis and baseball attracted
the attention of so many park freQuenters
in the upper part of the park, the greatest
crowd stood about the ratings surrounding
the baseball field in the park below 65th
street, and watched nearly ten thousand
men, women and children playing every
sort of game imaginable on the big lawn.
There were tugs of war galore, May
dances and other forms of amusement in
dulged in Commissioner Slower had the
satisfaction of seeing his Sunday open
door policy working at full blast here.
Following church services. many of the
churchgoers. walking through the park, as
we'll as some clergymen, stopped TO see
the crowd at play on the ball field, and
others viewed the tennis games, arguing
for and against Commissioner Slower S
policy of an open Sunday in the parks

Should Bear Just Proportion Of Cost.

On principle it Is clear that carrier
operating through two or more states is
but one vehicle of commerce, and all traffic
moved by it, whether state or interstate,
ought when the general transportation con-
ditions are the same. to bear its just pro-
norton of the cost of operation and ought
10 WELD no more and no less than its just
proportion of the revenues of the carrier.
ANY other theory Is fundamentally in
equitable illogical and unreasonable. 1t
NAV be- but on that point we express no
opinion that the Congress may conStitu-
tionally protect interstate commerce as
we'll as the carriers that are engaged in
interstate transportation by Requiring that
any state traffic moved by, such a carrier
shall bear its just proportion of the cost of
operation and WELD it's proper proportion
of profit to the carrier. and that with such
an end in view ii may authorize this COM
mission to fix minimum rates, at least for
gagged also in Interstate transportation; or
that it NAV provide that no carrier engaged
in the interstate transportation of pasSen-
gers or property may at the same time
carry state traffic at rates that are less
than the rates exacted by it for interstate
carriage of like distance and under like
transportation conditions. 1t has. however,
not attempted any such legislation. and
whether such an enactment would stand the
test of scrutiny by the courts under the
constitution as 1t stands. and If So,
whether il would be desirable from the
standpoint of broad public policy. are
questions that must ultimately be deter
mined by the legislative power, and there
fore cannot proftably be discussed by the
commission in this proceeding.
New-York tribune., 1910-05-23
State Made Rate May Be Burden.

But when n carrier as in this case, serves
two communities similarly situated, by
hauling the same traffic under similar con-
ditions from point of origin to destina-
tions in the same state and also to the
same destinations from an interstate point
of origin. it is not altogether clear that
existing legislation affords redress against
q discrimina ton. between the two points,
when resulting from an order by the state
commission But unless some such power
is lodged somewhere under appropriate leg
iSlation. il is evident that state made rates,
if established in pursuance of narrow or
selfish local policy, may not only hinder
and harm and burden interstate traffic and
interstate interests. but may. if adjusted
with that end in view, take from point
in another state a business that naturally
belongs to that point. or in which 1t is en-
titled at least to participate on the basis
of equal rates and equal opportunity.
Whatever may be the. explanation
whether il rests in the greater zeal, activ-
ity and ability OF the fishing interests at
Pensacola. or whether it is q natural ad-
vantage belonging to that port-the fact
appears that for years Pensacola has en-
i0yed a larger business in the distribution
of fish throughout the State of Alabama
than has Mobile. BY readjustment of
the state rates out of Mobile, whether so
intended or not. the process of taking from
Pensacola through lower state made trans
portation charges what its superior zeal or
it's greater natural advantages have given
to it has commenced and is now going on.
