CARNEGIE GIFT WAS DECLINED,

IL is not surprising that congressman
ART found who doubt the propr city IT
the government accepting any such
trust as Dir. Carnegie proposes.
Senator Bailey in speaking of the
matter said he was opposed to the
principle of government control Oh
education and while he did not know
the character Of securities offered by
Mr. Carnegie, he was of the impression
that Democrats congressman at least
could hardly afford TO favor any CO.
operation between the government and
the owners of the properties OF steel
trust
II was evident to him that as trustee
the government would assume so q
obligation for the protection of the
trust II had consented to administer
and in order to protect the value of the
securities would naturally have to con-
tinue a form Of probation upon the
people. which every democratic in
stinct revolts at.
1t was made very plain that the
Democrats would fight the Acceptance
Of such gift. and IL conseoteEcn
there Ia reason to believe that the
president has intermatad 10 Mr..
Carnegie that unless he was disposed
to convert the steel trust bonds into
cash or government bonds, the govern
ment would feel compelled to decline
his gift

WASHINGTON. Dec l6.-tt Is now
appareut that the hint given by Fresi-
dent Roosevelt on Saturday that An
drew Carnegie's gift OF $l0.OOO,0 900
steel trust bonds to establish great
national university at Washington,
would not be accepted was the result
of congressional public opinion.
1t is said on good authority that the
$40, ,OOO. 900 which Mr. Carnegie pro-
poses to give consists altogether OF
steel trust securities. and the question
arose C ould the government afford to
become the trustee OF such securities
mt time when there is unquestionably
a great public demand for the destruc-
tion of the steel trust and other simil +
combinations? Even prominent Re
publican congressman like Babcock Is
proposing in the interest OF the com
mon welfare to take from the steel
trust the protective duties which have
made the Carnegie fortune possible
OF course IL is not suggested that Mr.
Carnegies motive was to soften public
hostility against the steel trust. for hiG
philanthropy has gone too far to be
doubted But when the Democratic
party aud a considerable portion OF
the Republican party are extremely
anxious TO relieve the country of the tri
butte it is compelled to pay to this
gigantic concern through the protec-
tive duty on steel and steel products

What Robinson Says
About His Arrest

SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 1G.--Travel-

the Southern Pacific company has re-
turned to this city, but has nothing
to say In reference to his arrest by
the Federal authorities on a charg.
of smuggling Mexican cigars across the
border at Nogales. When Interview
ed yesterday Robinson excused him
self from talking about the case by
saying that he was busy. His friends,
however, claim that he Is a victim of
spite work. They say that several
months ago Robinson discharged a
clerk employed on the car for smuggi-
ing, and that the clerk out OF malice
preferred the charge. II Is asserted that
the clerk informed the Federal au-
thorities that Robinson had a large
quantity of cigars hid in the car
but when they swooped down ON II
they only found one box.

LOS ANGELES. Dee 16.~~Whila
local detectives who have charge oil
the search for Henry j. tieishman, the
absconding cashier of the Farmers
and Merchants bank. are maintaining
secrecy regarding the progress OF their
quest. it leaked out today that advices
have been received that the fugitive Is
now we'll on his way down the coast to
some Central or South American port
Rumor has it that these advices are
official and that the cashier was traced
aboard a steamship leaving Vera Cruz
for the south. His destination is pre-
sumed to be Honduras, between which
republic and the United States there
is no extradition treaty. AS 1t is like
~ that Fleishman posted himself In
regard to extradition treaties and
other conditions while planning his
flight. and as his destination was at
first believed to be Vera Cruz, today S
