RAISED THE AMOUNT.


Chicago, April 2.-William R. Har-
per, of the University of Chicago,
raised $isO,OOO Saturday, this sum
making more than sufficient to secure
the provisional gift of $2,OO0,0OO, made
by John d. Rockefeller in 1894. The
gift was conditioned upon the duph-
cation of that amount by other gifts
by January 1, 1900. When that day ar
rived Mr.. Harper was $35O,OOO short.
He had in the treasury $165O,O0o Of
the Standard Oil mans money. Mr..
Rockefeller then advanced the time to
April ], and DR.. Harper set about the
task. He has labored night and day
since then to make up the amount.
Sometimes he looked blue, but he was
never really discouraged. The money
began to come in, but lately it moved
slowly and the supply appeared to
have been exhausted. When he got up
Saturday morning he was $4,000
short He ate no breakfast and
started out in cab, seeking whom he
might hold up. His success was re-
markable and when five o'clock came
he had more than enough. He wired
his patron and the answer came back
that check for $350,OOO would be
forthcoming next week. There ,yas q
grand jubilation at the university at
night.

DOUBLE HEADERS.
General Manager Nudge Testifiea to Their
safety--A. b Youngston Claims They
Are Extra Hazardous

Austin, Tex, April 2.-The principal
witness before the railroad commits
sion Saturday in the hearing Of the
complaint Of railroad employees with Q
view Of prohibiting the running Of
double header" trains on Texas roads
was H. U. Nudge, of Topeka, general
manager of the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe. He stated that the running
Of double headers" began on the
Atchison system many years ago on
the mountain divisions and that tho
practice was extnded to all parts Of
the system about year ago. The
practice was adopted as an economical
measure. He assumed that the ele-
'ment Of danger on double headers"
was not greater than on single en-
gines. On the contrary, the statistics
Of the Atchison system showed that
there were fewer accidents during the
last year when double headers have
been used than during any period
when single engines were run.
A. B. Youngston, Of Cleveland, o.,
assistant chief of the Brotherhood OF
Locomotive Engineers, testified in be-
half Of the complainant employees. He
claimed that there is an extra hazard
in operating "double headers" and
thought the practice should be pro-
hibited. The hearing will be concluded
to-day.

MAY AMALGAMATE.
A Plan on Foot to Unite the "Middle-of-
the Readers" and the Social
Democracy.

Terre Haute, Ind, March 31.--Ac-
cording to persistent report here, the
home of Eugene V. Debs, nominee of
the social democracy, movement is
well under way to amalgamate the
social democratic party and that
element of the populist party known
as the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS." 1t is
said that the plan now is to unite the
two parties at the middle-of-the-road
populist convention at Cincinnati in
May and form one strong organization
of the two. This may be accom-
plished by the nomination of Eugene
V. Debs, of this city, for president
by the populists. He has already been
nominated by the social democracy
for president and the amalgamation
which has been looked forward to
for some time by certain element
in both parties will, it is felt, be eff
fected more easily at the the coming
convention than at any other time.

Gives Up Free Silver.

l. N. Stevens, whose work as vice
chairman of the executive committee
of the national silver party was a
feature Of the campaign OF 1896, has
,,uit the TelIerites, and this week gave
the following reasons for his action:
SIN all things except upon the
money have always been repub-
lican.
"On that question | was willing to
sink craftsmanship in what appealed to
me as loyalty to the states interest
and my personal convictions and to
cooperate with the national party
which would make that question the
supreme issue and which would not
require an abandonment of convic-
tions upon other grave governmental
questions.
"rhere Is now no such party.
"rhe money question is not now
and will not be in the coming cam
paign either supreme or important
issue.
"lhe recent action Of congress set
ties 1t for the next five years at least
and it of necessity is eliminated from
the practical effect of any result
which the coming election might
bring forth.
Natural causes have met the re-
Quirements Of most of the blessings
prophesied as result of free silver
in the enormous output of gold for
the past five years, giving us q greater
volume of gold money than we ever
had Of both gold and silver money
combined.
"Thus for the above and many other
reasons the silver question has been
subordinate to other issues and the

CHICAGO COMPLICATION.


Chicago, March 31.-The Columbia
theater, one of the Oldest and most
popular houses in the city, was de-
stroyed by fire yesterday afternoon,
entailing total loss of $4,000. The
fire was discovered in the laundry of
the Iroquois club, which occupied
apartments on the sixth floor of the
building. II is supposed that some
hot Goals dropped from the stove to
the floor. The flames spread with
great rapidity and within ten minutes
after the discovery of the fire the
theater was beyond saving. Occu-
pants of the building and employees Of
the theater and the club were driven
to the street in such haste that in the
excitement three women were over
come. Several persons were more or
less injured.
The early part Of the fire was
marked with gallant rescues of girls
employed in the laundry of the Iro-
quois club, where the flames started.
Two firemen climbed the fire escape
to the sixth floor and carried the wom-
en-, who had grown hysterical, to a
place of safety.
A few minutes after the discovery
of the fire the roof of the building
fell with q crash and to many it
sounded like great explosion. The
collapse caused general stampede
among the spectators and in the rush
several were slightly bruised.
The Iroquois club, whose home was
destroyed, is the largest democratic
club in Illinois and has among its
members many OF the prominent DEM
ocrats of Chicago.
