BIG FUND FOR COOPER UNION.
COOPER AND HEWITT FAAHL les ADD 100000 TO CAR
NEGLES SECOND GIFT OF s3oO,ooo
N AND EXTEND THE CURRICULUM

Announcement was made yesterday afternoon
that ex-Mayor Edward Cooper. his sister, Miss
Sarah Amelia Cooper, and ex-Mayor Abram S.
Hewitt and his family had given 100000 as an
endowment fund to Cooper Union. This an
nouncement was made by Mr. Hewitt shortly
after he had confirmed the report that Andrew
Carnegie last week gave S300O OO0 also as n
dowment fund to the institution This
is Mr. Carnege's second gift to Cooper Union.
the first one. made about two years ago. being of
like amount. Thus Cooper Union is 100000
richer than it was two years ago.
Mr.. Hewitt. who is secretary of the institu-
ton, said yesterday at his home, No. 8 Lexing-
ton-ave:
Last week Mr. Carnegie gave Cooper Union
S3OOOoO This made his total gifts to the in
stitution 100000. When the Cooper family
heard of Mr.. Carnegie's generous intention to
give a second 100000 they felt that they
should meet him halfway. When Peter Cooper
my father-in-law, died. in 1883, he left an en-
dowment fund for the institution. This fund
was not to go to the Union until the death of his
children. The determination of the children to
forego their right to the annuities from this
fund transfers 100000 to the Union which it
might not have received for thirty or forty
years. The surrendering of these annuities is
certainly a creditable thing for the Cooper fam
lily to have done
The income which will be derived from these
gifts, with what the institution already has, will
enable it to increase greatly its sphere of use
fulness. 1t will enable us to occupy practically
the entire building. Hitherto we have been
compelled, because Of the expenses incurred in
the projection of Improvements in the cur
rlculum, etc, to rent four stores on the ground
floor We have been gradually taking over these
stores. and now we hope soon to occupy all the
constructing another building, preferring TO
strengthen the faculty and courses of study
Last year We expended $4,000 more than
our income in our efforts to enlarge the use
fulness of the school. We desire to make Cooper
Union as complete an institution as possible
The money will be used to pay our teachers
higher salaries. We shall give more advantages
