Special Dispatch to The Star.
PITTSBURG, Pa, May 25.-After years
Of waiting and financial jockeying H. c.
Frick is at last ready to strike blow at
the pride of his most bitter enemy, Andrew
Carnegie. 1t is announced today that II.
G. Frick will present $5.OO0,0OO academy
of fine arts to Pittsburg, to offset Mr.. Car
negie's institute. Not only this, but he
has selected site facing the Carnegie
buildings, and his grand art palace will
look down on the more modest art gallery
of the Carnegie Institute. In the academy
of fine arts, Mr.. Frick proposes to have an
art gallery which will, if possible, surpass
that of Mr.. Carnegie.
Frantic have been the efforts of Mr.. Car
negie to. stop the plans of Mr.. Frick The
only way in which the project could have
been checked was to get the property away
from Mr. Prick, and though the agents of
Mr. Carnegie have tried hard to buy the
property, Prick would not sell.
Exercised Diplomacy.
He exercised great diplomacy in getting
the property himself. as the least suspicious
move or any intimation that Prick was in
terested in buying up the property adj
joining the Carnegie Institute would have
brought the Carnegie people to the front
wildly. So quietly was the thing done,
however, neither Mr. Carnegie nor his
agents suspected, and for $9SO,OOO Mr..
Prick was able to accumulate the property
and get within striking distance of Car
negie. Mr. Carnegie was told of Flick s
scheme on his recent visit to Pittsburg,
and flew into fearful rage. His agents,
fearing his wrath, had already offered
Prick 100000 more for his bargain, or
about $1.300,OGO for the ground, but Mr..
Prick shook his head and smiled He had
outstalked Carnegie, and was now ready
to strike.
To Educate Artists.
The new rival school, which Frick will
rear over Carnegie's buildings. will be de-
voted to the education of young artists,
and it is understood Mr.. Frick will endow
1t heavily. 1t will be erected in the center
of an eight-acre plot of ground, and will
occupy position more advantageous than
the Carnegie buildings. In fact, the F'rick
building will command the entire Carnegie
group
One of the things which hurts is that the
plot of ground now secured by Mr.. Friek,
and which will be used by him to make
Carnegie's buildings look small, Is the
same property that Mr.. Carnegie sought
for his own buildings, but he was unable
to gain possession, and he thought no one
else would be able to, either.
