floor say that they have driven through
there in automobiles. There are no
roads through it. They were mistaken
about the locality. There has been no
development Of Rock Creek Park at
all in that section as yet. but It is
owned as a part of Rock Creek PARK.
Gentlemen say-and 1 was rather sur
prised at my level-headed friend from
North Carolina (Mr. Page) saying IT.
Garden up there would benefit the ad-
joining property. 1t Is matter OF ap-
solute Indifference to adjoining prop
erty owners whether a park IS de-
veloped as a park or as botanic gar
den. The park is there. It will be de-
veloped. 1t will be developed, PROB
ably. before the adjoining property Is
developed to any extent.
1T Will be developed as a park If IT
is retained as park. If It is retained
or established as a botanical garden
ly the same lines as 1t would be if 1t
remained a part of Rock Creek Park,
except that in certain vacant spaces up
there there will be plants and trees
planted as botanic garden without
interfering with the other develop
ments Of property and without inter-
fering with the woods which are there
There can be no real estate speculation
in it. 1t can be OF no possible inter-
est to the people who own property
around the park. because 1t can make
property whether the roads that run
through that park and the develop
ment there run through 1t as q part
of Rock Creek Park or as part of
"a botanic garden laid out on park

AMORy CRIME UNSOLVED
Clerk Held for Investigation in Con-
nection With Staying Of Pat
ent Attorney.

CHICAGO. August 13.-The mysteri-
Gus murder of Edward p Amory. pat
ent attorney and secretary of the
western Railroad Association, who was
found choked and beaten to death In
his office yesterday, was still unsolved
when the police took up the investiga-
tion today. Amory was killed early
yesterday morning and the body left
locked In the office of the association.
His woman stenographer vainly tried
to get in. and at length went home,
leaving a note pushed under the door
The body was discovered by Allen NJ
Thompson. Amory's clerk, who was
having a day OF. he said. but looked
In at the ONCE late in the afternoon.
The police held Thompson to investi-
gate his story.
Amory was killed after desperate
struggle. His clothing was partly torn
of. he had three outs on his head
bfs1lses on his throat and the whole
ofaoe was spattered with blood
Thompson had several slight scratches
on his neck. which he said he had got
while playing with a dog. One lens OF
his eyeglasses was broken.
Thumb prints found on chairs In
Amory's office were to be compared
with Thompson's today. Thompson de-
clared that he had been given a day
off TO GO to a dentist.
The association Of which Amory was
secretary was formed to protect west
ern railroads against infringement of
patents, and the police thought the
murder might have been committed by
some person with fancied injury in
connection with patent litigation.
Amory's desk was open and its con-
tents scattered.

sumed by merchantmen when all Of the
machinery of the canal is in smooth
operation.
The Cristobal made this experimental
voyage August 3 and 4, and at the time
was drawing twenty-five feet Of water
The trip was made without operating in
cident, other than some minor difficulties
with towing locomotives at Gatun and
Pedro Miguel locks.
Last Sunday Gov. Goethals, in recog-
milton of their service, allowed number
of old employees to traverse the canal
from one ocean to the other on the
steamer Advance, and 1t is reported that
everything is in perfect order for the
formal opening of the canal Saturday.
when the Ancon. sister ship to the Cristo.

way Company. and Of 9.606 tons, will
make the official trial trip.
