CARNEGIES LATEST GIFT.


A Conditional Offer of Se5O,oOO to the
Projected University of Birmingham.
Birmingham, May 10.-Mr. Andrew
Carnegie has written letter to Mr.
Joseph Chamberlain offering to con-
tribute the last 100000 which Mr.
Chamberlain is trying to raise for the
University of Birmingham, provided
the scientific school be made the prin-
cipal department in the institution.
Mr.. Carnegie points out the great need
in England of young scientific experts
to manage works of the class which
England must secure if she is to re-
main one of the principal manufacture
ing nations of the world. He urges
Mr. Chamberlain to take Cornell Uni
versity as a model, where the scientific
department has won first place in the
number of students and gives degrees
in science as in the classics. Mr.. Car
negie continues:
Il am sure that our people of Birm-
ingham across the Atlantic will heart
lily approve of a gift to their prototype
on this side OF the w1ter; for what
does not the younger owe of it's great
ness and prosperity to the old land?
Let the gift therefore be considered
only as a slight acknowledgment Of a
debt that Pittsburg, the greatest benz
ficiary of your steel inventions, can
never hope to repay"
