CHICAGO NIvERSlTY

Chicago, Jan. 2O.-John D. Rookie
feller yesterday presented the Univer-
sity Of Chicago with $1,000,000 for pur-
poses of general endowment. The
latest donation Of the university foun-
der, in the form of securities yielding
$4,000 annually, was announced last
night by DR.. T.. w. Goodspeed, regis
ter of the university.
The gift was made known in a tele-
gram received by Martin A. Ryerson,
president of the university board Of
trustees, and was accepted by the
board at special meeting in the uni
versity Offices in the Corn Exchange
building. The latest million raises the
sum total of Mr.. Rockefeller's bene-
factions to $24,515,322.
AS was the case last year when Mr..
Rockefeller presented the university
with $2,0OO,000, no cash gift for the
payment of an annual deficit was nee
essary. The budget for the coming
year, beginning July 1, 1909, amount
ing to $1,350,O00 will be covered by
the schools income, according to DR..
Goodspeed. The university officials
thus regard the school as self-support-
