MILLION DOLLAR GIFT.
j. Ogden Armour and HIS Mothe
Give TO the Armour Institute.


Give to tho Armour institute.
Chicago. April 11.-Armour Institute
was enriched sl.Ooo,OOO by a gift OF cash
and securities from Mrs. p d. Armour
and j. Ogden Armour yesterday. Added
to property amounting to between s3,-
100000 and $4,000,000 given by p. d. Ar
mour during his life. the gift makes the
total resources OF the institute close to
50, 100000 and enables 1t to progress
toward the point i which 1t will be the
most complete school of engineering in
the country.
The gift means that Armour Instituts
will be able to extend its work in many
important branches. and that 1t can en-
large its buildings and accommodations
80 that pupils will not have to be turned
away next year, as the trustees have
feared would be necessary.
The Importance of the donation is,
rowever, greater than this. 1t means
that the Armour family regard the
school not merely as a monument to the
dead founder, but as an institution to be
fostered by the family and caused to
advance steadily with demands upon it's
instruction from the people.
j. Ogden Armour announced the gift
as unostentatiously as his father was
accustomed to do before him in similar
circumstances. Not a word had been
breathed of any intention, and the pub
lie had come to think that because no
mention of the school was made In p.
d. Armour's will that it was not conaid-
cred that anything more was needed by
ii at present.
Yesterday Mr.. Armour telephoned to
DR.. Frank Gunsaulus, who was from
the foundation OF the institute in 1892
until last October its president, and
asked him to call at his office.
Meeting DIR. Gunsaulus near by in
Lasalle street. he gave him the first
news of his purpose, and assured him
that as soon as the trustees could be
called together they would be offered
the additional s1.000,ooo, either in cash
or securities. or in both, as they desired
to have it.
The investment vii be made in such a
way. 1t is expected, that an income OF
$4,000 a year can be secured from it. to
be added to the 100000 or more year
which the institute now receives from
endowment and tuition fees. With the
money the courses in chemical engineer
irg, mechanical engineering and archi-
lecture will be increased. and 1t is ex-
rected that new buildings will be
erected. possibly this summer.
