New York, March 5.--The reports Of
Mr.. Carnegie's benefaction to Prince
ton creates an envious feeling among
English educators, cables the Tribune's
London representative. One Of the best
informed oxford professors has said
that his university'j equipment needs
to be greatly increased in order to car
ry out the work Of Anglo-Saxon edu-
cation planned by Mr.. Rhodes He
wonders whether American million

granting professorships of philosophy,
law and science, and widening the
Courses of study. He would himself
be pleased to see some great Ameri-
can educators In oxford chairs for car
rying out the purposes Of the Rhodes

Some Of the Oxford colleges are rich,
but the university as whole has
limited resources. British million

bering their universities in making

Samuel Gompers OF the American Ted

senate judiciary committee In support
of the measures in reference TO child
labor. said:
I'VE are unable to meet the tech
nical and legal objections urged. they
are always urged against bills OF move
ments to improve the conditions of the
unfortunates who cannot urge tech
nicalities in their own behalf. This
Is the history Of the betterment of the
laboring class. All kinds of legal and
technical objections have been raised,
but in each instance the better senti-
ment of the people and the human In
stincts OF legislators have triumphed
AMI the step has been gained"
In answer to the claim of Commo-
dore Elbridge Gerry. counsel and ex-
president of the Society for the Pre-
vention Of Cruelty to Children, that
he and his associates had been she
prime movers in factory legislation in
this state. Mr.. Gompers declared he re-
called that in 1866 Commodore Gerry
had visited the meeting Of the State
Federation of labor and complimAnted
them upon the passage Of the law for
whose passage Gerry now claimed the
credit
This committee is competent to
meet the technical objections" he
said. I'VE are stFaining at knat.
We want the substance, not the legal
shadow in this matter, and we look
to the legislature to remove the blot
from the state and the shame fro mits
business life, of compelling or Iermit-
ting the babes 10 fight for their ltv-
ing on the streets. We want our
boys and girls to become virile men
