THE CARNEGIE BEMEFAc1IoNs.
'rC,hicaQo Tribun

IChicago Tribune.
The total of Mr. Andrew. Cxfnegie's
gifts TO educational institutions and IL |
braries, as we'll as in llaneous di
rections. amounts to $1s540 ,965 and he
has a million dollars more of library
under consideration.
Standing by itself this is Il magnificent
showing and 1T argues a comnlefidable
spirit of generosity on MIR. Carnegie
part There are few who have even
come near 1t.
The conditions which Mr.. Carnegie
has imposed upon himself, while they
do not in any way disparagc his
philanthropy, nevertheless give it az
kind CT hopeless aspect so far as hi s.
own future is concerned. Mr.. Cari,e-
gle recently said in the most public
manner that ito die rich is to die dis
graced. and his contributions there
fore must be looked upon as an effort
on his partt to save his good name from
discredit at the last and himsel t from
Humiliation Mr.. Came gle is now
these figures may be exagge, ated.
Most fortunes usually are. But il is
we'll known that his wealth is continu
ally increasing. 1t gains on his gifts.
This month, for nuisance, he has given;
away $4,000. which is larger than the
average of any month in the past, but
if he does not increase his donations IN
number and volume 1t will take him
over 200 years to get rid of the 800 0O0,-
900 he has now. AS he cannot live for
that period, even by the use Of salt,
pepper or any other of the Numerous
devices for securing longevity, he may
livelon enough to see himself die dis
gracea Unqnestionably it would be
difficult for him to expedite the process
much, for nearly all his donations are
devoted to the noble work Of building
up libraries ii of necessity requires
some time for investigation and. decis-
lion just where to give and, ho,w much
ito give. 1t might be possible TO do
harm, indeed by inconsideraite gener-
osity
In this emergency and to save him
self from the possibility of humiliation.
which grows more and more imminent
each year. he would Go we'll to put him
self in communication with Dir ID. X
Psarsons. The doctor has devised a
lsplan by which every COLLAR of his
money VIII be distributed before he
dies and not a scrdp Of property Will b.
left when he is gone. He probably
would be wiling to let Mr.. Carnegie
Into his secret and thus save him the
llspesthumous disgrace he apparently
ereads so much.
