TRACEHELL'S RULING
BALKS PARK PLAN

The District Commissioners must
await further action by Congress before
proceeding with the pure sc Of land on
Columbia Heights for a public park to
cost S495, 900, according to a decision
rendered by Comptroller OF the Treasury
Robert J TTaCeWeu
The Comptroller rules that this sum
was authorized, but not specifically ap-
pTOpriaued at the last session Of Con
greSs- Therefore, no expenditures may
be made toward acquiring the land in
question until Congress has appropriated
the money
The land referred to is bounded by
Euclid street, Fifteenth street, Florida
avenue, and Sixteenth street northwest
fn the Hall and Elvan division The
area comprises 43I- -00o square feet
That condemnation proceedings have
already been Instituted by the United
States District Attorney for the District
OF Columbia does not affect the question,
says the Comptroller The Comptroller
also notes that the said 500 .0c0 IS asked
for in the District Commissioners esu-
mate for 1872 as submitted TO the Sec
Tetary Of the Treasury.

quired by the Health Department for

charge Of interfering with Health De-
paTtment Inspectors who visited his sta
bic for the purpose Of applying the

sold, the defendant said. and. there
fore. It was a violation Of his cOnstitu-
tiOnal rights for the department TO in

paTtments and Dr. b T Woodward, Of
the Agricultural Department appeared
as witnesses against Mr.. Wells DR.

CLAIMS TO BE WIDOW
OF LIEUT.. MCDONALD

Another chapter in the erratic and TO
mantle career Of Lieut. Paul Harding
Mcdonald, who ended his life in q tragic
manner at Hot Springs, Ark. NOveu-
Der ., 19S, was revealed today when q
Jacksonville, Fla, woman, claiming 10
be his widow, fled q caveat to his wiz
in Probate Court
Heretofore It had been supposed by
Franz J. Heiberger, executor OF McDOn-
aid's estate, that the former army Off
Ger was unmarried, and his estate was
being administered on that theory The
appearance of the woman IN the case
came Just on the eve OF the final adjudi-
cation OF the estate.
All that IS known OF the WOman's
claim 10 the estate, which IS valued at
about S2,00o, is contained in letter she
wrote TO Attorney Charles Linkins, who
filed the caveat for her. Mr- Linkins
stated today that he knows nothing
The Washington times., 1910-12-06

about the history Of the romance, ex-
cept the claim Of the woman that she
married the army officer IN Jackson
vile. Fla. May (, S0S.
Lieutenant Mcdonald was arrested
several years ago on a charge Of foTg-
cry and was sentenced to one year in
prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kan He
was paTdOned and then is alleged TO
have passed worthless checks, one
Seattle (WaSh-) bank having a claim
against the estate for money he IS al
legged 10 have obtained
The woman who today attacked the
viii on the claim that she is the widow
gives her name as Lettie Howell Nc
Donald and sets forth several ailega-
tons. one OF them being that the two
witnesses TO the will never signed the
document at tia request Of Mcdonald
The witnesses IL question are J. M Up
