Rather Premature.

The Reports About the ErscEIOn and
Location of Y@Ie's New DormitOry-
No Money Yet Received For that Pur-
pose
The fact that Mrs. Lawrence of New York
city, mother of the late T. G. Lawrence,
Yale 'S4, has signifed her intention to Rive
at an early day $50, 900 to the corporation o
Yale college to be devoted toward the erection:
of new dormitory, has been extensively;
heralded in the newspapers. That simple
fact has been quite "a extensively enlarged
upon, until the gossips had the site of the
building picked out, and were almost ready
to have ground broken for building TO cost
anywhere from $75, 600 to 300, 600, the extra
money having been already subscribed. Not
withstanding all the industrious attempts
that have been made to build upon whole
cloth the money promised for the dormitory
has not yet been received, although OF course
there is no doubt that it will be. There is
nothing more to be said about the matter az
it stands Just there. More money will be
needed to build a dormitory than the $5o, 600
already promised and nothing will be done
until it is obtained These facts are given
upon the authority Of prominent member
of the corporation. There is no doubt that
there is pressing need of new dormitory,
but it will probably be some time before it is
built.
The proposed new chemical laboratory
will be located on the corner of High and
Library Streets as near as possible to the
Sloan physical laboratory. No plans for the
building have yet been decided upon.
