NATIONAL UNIVERSITY
Is Not Yet Assured 50 Congress
Afraid TO Recognize
Trust.

Washington, D, c., Dec. I3,--Con-
gress is disposed to look in the mouth Of
Andrew Carnegie,s gift horse, 1t does
not like the steel trust which It finds
there, Today 1t became known that the
cause Of the delay Of the public an.
nouncement Of Mr., Carnegie's generous
gift, which President Roosevelt had ex-
pected to make yesterday by means Of
special message to Congress, Is the
fact that Mr.. Carnegie proposed to give,
not 100000 in cash, but sIo,ooo,ooo
in United States Steel lpreferred stock,
In this form 1t is feared Congress could
not be induced TO accept the endow-
ment, and 1t Is probable that the offer
will soon be renewedi in cash, United
States bonds or acceptable securities.
Mr.. Carnegle's proposition was to give
$40, 100000 OF steel trust stock to a board
Of regents, to be organized by act Of Con-
gress, and to be named either by Nh.
Carnegie himself orsby President Roose-
welt, This great sum was to be held in
trust for fifty years, only the lncome to
be held in trust for fifty years, only the
income to be devoted to the Especial SCI
entifc Investigations and explorations
which the doner wishes to encourage,
The income from thisl stock would be
100000 year, andI in his letter to the
president Mr.. Carnegie offered to guar
antek that the income should never fall
below that sum, His estate should be
bound to make up any deficiency that
might arise through possible disaster to
the United States Steel corporation.
President Roosevelt was ready to send
his special message to Congress yes
terdey, according to the program arrang-
ed a week ago, but on consulting a few
senetors found there was objection to
Congressional acceptance Of the gift in
steel trust stock, These senators we're
asked TO confer with some OF their col
leagues, They did so, and the Judge
ment of the leaders Of the Senate, almost
without exception, is that it would be a
mistake to send to Congress a proposal
that the United States government ac-
cept the gift in such securities, II is un-
derstood that President Roosevelt has
undertaken the delicate task OF suggest
ing to Mr.. Carnegie that conversion Of
the steel stock into cash or government
bonds and an amendment Of the terms
ofthe proffer would be advisable, Wheth
er or not Mr., Carnegie has accepted this
suggestion and acted npon it cannot be
learned here, but it is presumed that he
has or will do so at an early date.
Senators who gave this advice say
they did so with great reluctance, They
do not like to appear captious as to the
character OF the securities offered, but
on the other hand they must pay some
attention to popular prejudices,
The government is asked formally to
accept a gift and to give a charter to an
institution which is endowed wholly by
the stock Of a corporation which many
Senators and Representatives and Ia large
share of the public regard as au illegal
corporation, or at least corporation
that is violating a law Of the United

CUBAN POLITICS HOT.
Cuba In the Heat Of lis First Campaign Un'
der a Constitutional Government

Havana, Dec, l3,-An energetic cam
paign is being waged in Puerto Principe
province by the adherents Of General
Bartolome Maso, Democratic candidate
for the presidency of Cuba, General
Gomez is being charged with being an
assassin by Salvador Cisneros, president
of former Cuban republic. Cisneros
says he has evidence that Gomez caused
the death Of Valona and Castellanos dui
ing the ten year war. He advises Cen
eral Gomez not to come to Puerto Prin-
cipe province, beause he wishes to save
Gomez from the hanging he escaped in
1873. Cisneros adds that the Cubans,
instead Of voting for Senor Estrado
Palma, the national candidate, should
make both Gomez and Palma examples
Of the "spotorno law" which was passed
by the revolutionary government, and
sentenced to death anyone who made
peace overtures to the Spaniards.

ply Of his favorlte dish, even during the
lonely vigIls' Of a nights run on an

Yesterday Mr.. Walsh was not running
on an extra, but his appetite for chicken
soup was running as strong as ever,
Consequently he purchased a can and
forthwith proceeded to convert t into
eatable shape, He placed the can on n
stove, presumably without taking the
trouble to remove the lid, and when he
thought 1t heated TO the proper consist
ency, began removing what was be-
tween him and his hearts dasre--thc
lid.
His negligence in not doing this be-
fore was at once made apparent, The

who attended him, said that few days
at home will make him as good as new.

BOLT STRUCK A SHED
Near Where the Persons Had
Taken Refuge From Storm
1.-Two Others Were
Fatally Hurt.

Dennison, O., July 16.-The worst
electrical storm that has visited this
community in years occurred late
Monday afternoon, resulting in the
death of three persons and the injury
of two others whose death is momen-
tarily expected.
The dead are: Mrs. James Huff
aged "a years; Mrs. James Thornton,
aged 80 years; Mary Thornton, aged
years.
The injured are: Myrtle HUFF and
Anna Thornton.
The unfortunate party of five per.
sons had left their home in Newcom-
erstown early in the day to gather
berries. After the storm had occur
red and they did not return home
their families became alarmed for
their safety. A search was at once
made, and after looking for nearly
two hours in the rain two sons of one
of the women who were killed found
the five lying together amid the wreck.

longing to Thomas McMaclin.
The fatal bolt of lightning had
struck the shed an hour before the
persons were found, and the straw.
of which great part of it was con-
structed, had already caught fire and
the flames were creeping close to the
five apparently lifeless forms. Help
was quickly secured and the injured
persons were carried to their homes
unconscious, about mile distant
Neither has regained consciousness
and it is thought they cannot live.
The well filled baskets were found
near the fatal spot. 1t is supposed
that the party had started for home
and, being overtaken by the storm
had sought shelter in the shed.
Trees in the vicinity were struck
by lightning and badly shattered. A
barn was also fired by the lightning
but the flames were checked before
much damage was done. The tele
phone system was badly crippled AMI
was practically useless.
