ANDREW CARNEGiE'S MONEY
"Catholic Citizen" of Milwaukee,
Contains an Open Letter.
Not IA Single Catholic On the BOARD
of Trustees of His College
Professor Fund.

Milwaukee, May 5.-The Catholic
Citizen of this week contains an open
letter to Andrew Carnegie, the sub
stance of which is as follows:
is this fair, Mr.. Carnegie? We have
observed that you have given the sum
of $10,000,000 to a board of trustees
for the purpose of providing annuities
for college professors who are not able
to continue in active service.
I'VE have further observed that you
have appointed a board of % trustees
to manage said fund, among them the
president of Methodist college in
Wisconsin, a Presbyterian university
in New Jersey and Baptist univer-
sity at Chicago.
"Mr. Carnegie, are you aware that
there are now 25,00000 Catholics un.
der the American flag, and that with
in the United States there are, &C
cording to the latest Catholic directory
274 Catholic seminaries and colleges
of which so receive students Of al
creeds? The Citizen desires to say
that upon Mr. Carnegie's list Of trustees
does not appear the name of a single
Catholic.
AS man of broad views with many
millions, why have you permitted a
sectarian DOGGY to dictate your pol
icy?"

IS SEEKING BOTTOM FACTS
The Probing of the Late Missouri
Senatorial Contest.
Circuit Attorney Sager of st. Louis
is Said to BE On Still Hunt
for Big Scalps.

st. Louis, May 6.-The st. Louis
grand jury, under the guidance of
Prosecutor Sager, has determined, it
is said, to go to the bottom of the SEN
atorial contest during the recent ses-
sion of the legislature. Members of
the legislature have been summoned
and put through series of close ques-
lions.
Just what the outcome will be no one
seems to care to conjecture, but rumor
has it that big scalps are sought.
Big men are out to get even, and
somebody seems to have started some
thing that can not be stopped.
From reliable sources it can be said
that the grand jury has struck sig
nifcant lead which promises several
sensations when made public.
One person actively connected wlI5
the senatorial contest in st. Louis is
said to have become entangled in the
grand jury net, not ON the charge of
attempts at corruption of voters, but
in another way which smacks consid-
erably of blackmail. Taken in con-
nection with certain public acts, it is
assumed by those on the inside that
an indictment along that line, without
even corroborative evidence, may be
found.
AS the investigation goes deeper, ii
is said many interesting transactions
are coming to light. 1t is said that q
number of new witnesses have been
subponaed from out in the state. Per.

tiyes in their localities are to be called

GOES TO MEET NEBOGATOFF.
ROjestvensky Sails South to Meet
His Re-enfOrcements-St Peters,
burg Tells How NebOgatoR Fooled
the Japanese.

st. Petersburg, May 6.-Admiral Ro-
jestvensky, according to high naval
authority, has sailed south to meet Ad-
miral Nebogatoff.
The admiralty has information that
a Japanese division Of fast cruisers and
torpedo-boat destroyers was sent south
for the purpose, if possible, of crippling
or destroying Nebogatoffs ships be-
fore they could effect junction with
those of Rojestvensky, and there is
reason to believe that the Japanese
took up a position in the Straits of
Sunda through which Nebogatoff origi-
nally intended to make the passage in
to the China sea.
There is also reason to believe that
Nebogatoff first approached the Straits
of Sunda, but finding them too we'll
guarded put about and headed north
for the Straits of Malacca, his division
lacking the protection of fast cruisers,
and being at a great disadvantage in
meeting torpedo boat attacks.

Toxic, May 6.-The entrance of Rear
Admiral NNebogatoff's fleet into the Chi
ma sea, and it's juncture with the
squadron of under Rojestvensky, has
caused a revival of interest in the OPP
posing navies, as it is figured that the
prospects for a battle are much more
promising.
1t is we'll known at the war depart
ment that the fleet under Rojestvensky
is now lying in French waters about
$50 miles north of Kamranh bay, and
it is considered certain that Neboga-
toff received orders through the Rus
sian consul at Singapore directing him
to proceed at once to the rendezvous.
Judging from the length of time it
has taken the Russian reserve fleet to
reach Singapore, it may be two or
three days before Nebogatoff unites
with Rojestvensky.
The long voyage has probably told
on Nebogatoff's vessels, and it is like
ly that he will require several days to
put his ships in first-class condition
before being ready for battle.
The continued stay of the Russian
fleet in French waters is stirring the
press of the country again, and even
those at first disposed to accept in con-
nection with the Kamranh bay Incl
dent are now deeply resentful.

inventions which are constantly being
patented in Washington. And glance
at the records would show how many
of them have been put into use all
over the world and are practically in

been and are made from these simple
contrivances. Take, for instance, the

After a long experience with NOR
tality tables, Mr.. Frederick l.. Hoff'
man, a writer upon insurance subjects.
demonstrates the influence of marriage
on longevity. Interesting figures
show that the mortality of married
males has been considerably below the
mortality of single males at all ages,
the difference being most noticeable
between the age periods of As and 81
years. Between those ages, roughly
speaking, three single men die to two
married ones. The record Of females
also gives a result favorable to mar.
ried women.
