there was no idea, when he issued his
VUmmincus report on the progress of
the administrative departments Of the

who followed him. spoke with deep
emotion of Lord Cromer's unexampled
services to the empire and voiced the
nations regret at his leaving his post
during such difficult period. the for
eign secretary declaring that it was
the greatest personal loss the public
sa""ice of the country could suffer.
FEn retirement Of Lord Cromer will
involve no change in their policy with
regard to Egypt This was explicitly re-
lated by Secretary Grey. Sir EidOn
GoorSt was appointed to succeed to the
post in Egypt on the advice Of Lord
CrGmer, whose complete confidence he
possessed. He takes up q difficult task

II have arrived at the conclusion that
must ask you to accept my resiGna-
ton. | have done 50 after very full
consideration and after consultation

anxious that it should he particularly

that no political consideration OF any
kind Whatever are in anyway connect
al with them. More especially | desire
TO say that nothing could be more ef-
factiye nor more generous than the
manner in which the present govern
mcnt has supported me. 1t has been
very great pleasure for me to serve
under you and it is with extreme re-
gret that | shall break my official con-
ncction with YOU. After spending, how
ever, 10 years in the governments SER
vice. | am thoroughly worn out and
really unable to support any longer the
excessive strain which my work here
entails. | feel also that ! do not possess
the health or strength necessary to do
Justice TO all the very important inter-
ests involved. Both my doctors quite
agree that it is necessary that | should
give up my work"

washington, y. c., April II. 1907.
MY Dear Sir:
II am not able to present myself with
you, therefore let me through you eX-
press my appreciation of the great work
done by the founding Of the Carnegie In
stitute. Wealth is put to a noble use when
applied to purposes such as those tho
Carnegie Institute is so well designed to
serve. Every such institute, every foun-
dation designed to serve the educational
uplifting of our people. represents Just
50 much gain for American life, just 50
much credit for us collectively as a ma
ton.
The success of our republic is predict
ed upon the high individual efficiency of
the average citizen; and the Carnegie
Institute is one of those institutions
which tends to bring about this high in
Gividual efficiency. Many things go To
make UP such efficiency. There vast b.
n sound body, there must be physical
hardihood and address in the use OF
trained nerve and muscle. There mus
also be a high degree of trained intel
lnctual development, Il high degree OF
that intelligence which can only be OBJ
tanned when there is both power to ac;
on individual initiative and power to act
in disciplined coordination with others
And. finally, there must be that training
on the moral side which means that pro-
duction in the average citizen of a high
type of characteristic character which
sturdily insists upon rights. and no less
whole heartedly and in the fullest fash
ion recognizes the fact that the perform
|ance of duty to others stands ever ahead
of the inSiStence upon ones own rights.
Through you l extend my heartie5t
congratulations to Mr.. Carnegie and M
wishes that he may have many happy re-
turns of this day, together with the &C
Acknowledgement which all of us must make
of the public service he so signally rem
drrS when he POUNDS institutions of this
type.
Sincerely yours
tSigneD THEODORE ROOSEVELT"

Roberts, vice chancellor of the Univer-
sity of Cambridge, England, delivered
the invocation.
letter Of regret from President
Roosevelt was read by the secretary of
the institute. In his letter the Presi-
dent praised Mr.. Carnegie for the great
gift to science and education.
During the exercises, the President
was referred to as the great peace
maker" and great applause greeted
every mention of his name
The notable feature Of the exercises
today was the parade of the European
and American guests from the Hotel
SchenleY to the institute, over a square
away. The march began about 100,
the route being along Forbes to the
east entrance Of the building.
The police protection was admirable
as was shown Il few minutes before
noon when Frederick Slagel, Of Los
Angeles, Cal, was arrested while at
tempting to enter the Hotel schenley
with an open knife hidden beneath his
coat sleeve. Slagel said he wanted to
see Mr. Carnegie concerning a patent
for milking cows. He had $2G1 " hen
arrested. The mans sanity will be
investigated.
The exercises will continue Friday
and Saturday. Those Of tomorrow will
probably be Of the greatest Importance
as the distinguished foreign and
American guests will discuss inter
national peace. Preceding this feature
however, addresses from universities.
colleges and kindred institutions will
be delivered. The Carnegie Technical
Schools will be inspected and the ladies
Of the party will be entertained at tea
in honor Of Mrs. Carnegie. In the
evening banquet will be given by the
trustees IN honor Of Mr.. ana Mrs.
