100000 TO UNIVERSITY.
Large Bequest in Prospect From the
Estate of Rowland Hazard

Peacedale, R. I, Sept. 1.-THE will of
the late Rowland Hazard, the wealthy
wooIIen manufacturer, was probated
here today. The principal bequest is
one of 800, 900 to Brown university. This
sum is not to be paid for three years,
and, if the estate should depreciate in
value, the executors are empowered to
reduce the amount to not less than
$50 900. The will was made in 1896. Tt
is evident, therefore, that the presence
of Dr.. Andrews as president of the I'M
iversity had no effect on Mr.. Hazards
feelings toward the college. The tesla
tor was a member of the Brown cOrpor-
alton.

returned to this city. After max
ing his report TO the Secretary of Ag-

give the President his ideas with re-
gard to the general state of the island.
He told the President he believed that
if proper measures OF relief are ex-
tended to the distressed in the island
the war may be ended in a compara-
lively short time
Mr.. Simpson bases his belief on the
fact that influential men on both sides
are tired of the war and want an Op-
pOrtunity to do business.
Mr. Simpson found that many lead
ing Spanish families are satisfied that
Cuba never can be prosperous until
freed from Spanish rule. In the clubs.

iards and Cubans who are not actively
opposed to the Government harmon
iZe as freely as do Republicans and
Democrats in this country Island af-
fairs are talked over without quarrell-

that the only logical termination of
the trouble means the practical loss OF
the island to Suain. This is SAID open
