BRITISH TRADE QUESTIONS
LORD SALISBURY SPEARS ON THE
EXISTING PESSIMISM.

Does Not Find the German Spectre Has
Affected English Commercial World
Dependency Duo to Necessities of
Fertile Writers Rather Than TO Any
Real Foundation u Fact-Does Not
Believe In Decadence or British COM
merce.
London, March 13-Lord Salisbury,
speaking this evening at the annual
banquet Of the Association of the
Chambers of Commerce, after alluding
to the unity Of parties during the
many months of struggle from which
England is issuing with her strength
unimpaired," referred to trade ques-
tions.
II do not find" said the premier,
that the spectre of Germany has af-
fected our commercial world, although
a despondent feeling exists, which Is
due rather to the necessity which fertile
writer's feel of producing copy for i'm
pending issues rather than to any real
foundation IN fact. Still, there Is
note of discouragement in certain por-
tfon of public opinion and the public
press.
This, perhaps, is the national pes
smsm which attends too great success.
But l trust we shall take such warn
ings as If they were real and give our
whole attention to meeting any dan
gers that might be pressing upon us"
After recommending a more general
study of foreign languages and assert
ing that Englishmen ought to know
French and German and possibly
Spanish, before thinking Of Latin and
Greek, Lord Salisbury urged that edu-
cation should be utilitarian. Later in
the address he observed: II do not
largely believe in the decadence Of
English commerce, but if it is true it Is
possibly due to parliament, which med
dies too much. Too frequent interfer-
ence with private enterprise might dis
capital from seeking employ
ment, and if we dried up capital we
might produce an evil of greater decay
upon industry, which no subsequent ex-
ertions would wipe out"

FIVE MILLION FOR HIS MEN
C4RNEGEE MAKES A GIFT UN-
PARALLELED IN THE WORLD.
News Given Out Simultaneously with
His Official Announcement OF Retire.
ment from Active Business-FOur
Million to be Used for Endo w AN emit OF
Fund for Superanuated and Disabled
Employees.

| "PA"yOss
| Pittsburg, March 13.-Two communi-
cations from Andrew Carnegie, official
ly made public tonight, tell of the steel
kings retirement from active business
life and of his donation of $5,000,000 for
the endowment Of a fund for superan-
nuated and disabled employees OF the
Carnegie company. This benefaction is
by far the largest of the many created
by Mr.. Carnegie and Is probably with
out parallel anywhere in the world.
This fund will in no wise Interfere
with the continuance of the saving
fund, established by the company fif-
teen years ago for the benefit of it's en-
ployes. In this latter fund nearly ST.
100000 Of the employees savings are on
deposit, on which the company by con-
tract pays per cent. and loans money
to the worlmen to build their own
homes.
In Mr.. Carnegie's letter announcing
his retirement he expresses regret at
'severing connection with his business
associates and employees, but says that
his mind was long ago made up to retire
before old age had come upon him. His
letter giving the endowment of $5,000000
is as follows
To the President and Managers, the
Carnegie Company.
Gentlemen: Mr.. Franks, my cashier,
will hand over to you upon your ac-
ceptance of the trust, s5,000,000 of the
Carnegie company bonds in trust for
the following purposes:
The income of s1,000,0O0 to be spent in
maintaining the libraries built by me in
Braddock, Homestead and Duquesne.
I have been giving the interest of $780,
900 to each of these Libraries hitherto
and this will give a revenue of $4,000
hereafter for the three.
The income of the other S4000,00 Is
to be applied:
First, to provide for employees of The
Carnegie company in all it's works,
mines, railways. shops, ETC., injured in
its service, and for those dependent up
on such employees as are killed.
Second to provide small pensions or
aids to such employees as, after long
and creditable service, through excep-
tional circumstances, need such help in
their old age, and who make good use
Of it,
New York, March 13.-It was an
to-day that Andrew Carnegie
has offered to the town of Hampstead
L. l.. $25,000 towards the establishment
of a library. Mr.. Carnegie has also Of
fered to give $4,000 to the Perth AM
boy, N. j., free library, provided the
city votes $4,000 annually for it's main
and the sit is furnished.
New York, March 13.-Mr. Carnegie,
before he sailed for Southampton to-
day, was asked how much money he
had given away for libraries WELL"
ne replied, II cannot tell. You see I |
have just begun to give away money,
out if you were to ask me the same
question ten years from now l might be
able to answer the question"
