PROPOSED PUBLIC PARK
District Authorities Continue
Efforts to Secure KlingIe
Ford Valley.

Undismayed by the fact that Congress
at the last session failed to pass the
bill for the acquisition of klngle Ford
valley for the creation of park, the
District Commissioners, it was announced
today may include an item for the pur
chase of the property in tire next annual
estimates.
The Klingle Ford valley ground is
greatly desired for park purposes. In
fact, ii is doubtful if there is anything
in the way of park improvements that
the District heads are more anxious to
secure.
introduced by Senator Curtis.
Senator Curtis of Kansas introduced the
bill for the acquisition of the property
which was sent to Congress by the Com
missioners during the latter part of last
session. The land which it is proposed to
acquire is valuable, and the Commits
sioners believe that il should be purchas-
ed before ground values in its neighbor-
hood record any further increases.
In connection with the klingle Ford
Valley Park scheme. the Commissioners
are planning a direct highway, from
Georgetown to Geological and Rock Creek
parks The highway will commerce with
Lovers lane. extend to Massachusetts
avenue and through Massachusetts Ave-
nue. Heights, and. finally. TO Rock Creek
Park by way of klingle Ford valley.

Justice Gould, without deciding the mat

looks like the matter would have to go

The right OF the auditor. to recommend
an increased allowance TO Mrs. Hutchns
VIII be questioned. 1t was stated today by
Attorney T.. III. Thomas. counsel for
Walter s. Hutchins. and opposition will
h made To any order OF the court at
tempting to ratifr such an increase, it
was intimated. Mr.. Thomas pointed out
that no service of process had been made
on Mr.. Hutchins, and, whether sane or
insane, the latter was entitled to his Gay
to dispose of his estate.
Mr.. Thomas will contend that the
court is without authority to grant the
increased allowance. and that. should
it do so and an appellate tribunal re-
verse it's action, Mr.. Dante, the trustee.
might he held personally liable for the
money in excess of $1,000 per month,
which he might pay out under the court 5
order Mr.. Thomas will probably file
formal exceptions to teh auditors report
dur ne the coming week.
Hold Trustee Responsible.
Attorney Brandenburg acknowledged
to pay personally any excess improper
ly expended by him even under an order
of the court. should the order be re-
versed He recalled case still pending
in which trustees expended certain funds
at the direction Of the court, and We're
sued when an appellate tribunal held the
order to be beyond the courts power.
Trustee Dante will also have some eN-
ceptions to make to the figures contained
in the report of MIR. Dent. He pointed
out what he called an error today which
would reduce the income of the estate
from S12OOCO yearly to S1cS.Op.
Mr. Dante said the auditor had made
the property at 18th and G. streets show
a net income of $1,000. The fact of the
matter, according to the trustee, is that
the property shows a loss of $1,000 an
nually
Other exceptions to the auditor report
are now expected from merchants whose
bills the auditor appears to have attempt
ed to transfer from the Hutchins estate
to Mrs. Hutchins Attorney William y.
Gordon, counsel for one of the mer
chants, consulted today with Attorney
Brandenburg, and intimated he might file
an intervening petition in the case and
ask TO he heard on any application to
confirm the report of Auditor Dent.

HARD WOOD RAILROAD TIES
Being Used in Relocating the Pan
anna Railway.

Probably no other railway in the world
will enjoy the singular distinction OF the
Panama railway of running its tracks
over the rarest and most valuable cabinet
woods. Thi sroad is now being relocated
as an incident to the construction OF the
canal over part Of the old line, and it
has become necessary to replace the old
soft wood ties Contracts have been
placed for hard wood ties. and 5000 have
lust been received at Colon from Colom-
bta. Most of these ties are hewn from
puaiacum or lignum vitae, but there are
also many ties Of polvilo, corteza and
balsamo.
These hard woods should last indefinite
ly even in the tropical climate OF the
isthmus, but they have their disadvan-
tages from the constructors point of view
as no spikes can be driven into them
and they can be laid and rallied only by
the use of special machinery. which bores
holes for the screw bolts which hold the
rails and chisels out faces to form the
rail seats.

AWARD FORAGE CONTRACTS.
Provision Made for Sending Hay and
Oats to Philippines.

Owing to the fact that hay cannot be
made or oats grown in the Philippines,
the quartermaster general has awarded
contracts for an enormous amount Of
American forage for the army's live
stock in the archipelago. Owing to the
prolonged drought in the middle west Ii
was found impossible to get any bids from
that section. Fortunately the Pacific
coast was in better condition and the
prices asked were lower even than last
year.
W. w. Robinson of Seattle was awarded
the contract for 10000 tons of hay at SO
cents per hundredweight, delivered at
Seattle and the Balfour Guthrie Company
of Seattle got the contract for 1000 tons
of oats to be delivered At Seattle, Tacoma
or Portland.
