CARNEGIE MAYGIYE
GIFT OF $1O,OOO,OOO
Big Sum for international
School of Law RumOred.

Boston. Dec. 12-It was rumored here
to-day that Andrew Carnegie is about to
announce the gift of sl0.Oee.00O to some in
lternauonal organization.
New York. Dec. p.-At Mr.. carnegie's
house tonight the representative OF Mr..
Carnegie refused to deny or confirm this
report He advised patience.
Mr.. Carnegie is president OF the New
York Peace Society. and has always been
interested in all the International peace
movements at The Hague During the
past few months five or six leaders in
the field of International law in this
country have been the recipients of a
somewhat elaborate correspondence, set
ting forth a project that originates in
Holland and has for its purpose the
founding OF a great institution Of inter
nationalism, This institute, according TO
its hackers, two Helanders, the Messrs.
Sijkman and Paul Horricks, would sup
port a school Of International law at The
Hague.
The originators of this scheme es-
innate in their letters to our inter
nationalists that the building and
equipment OF such a school would cost
approximately SO. 600, O00. Although ap-
parently the Wo HOllanders have no
backing OF their own. as far as finan-
cing such a scheme goes, they allow
the inference TO be drawn from their
prospectus that they contemplate Sc
curing the aid OF some wealthy Amer
lean interested in International affairs.
One OF the recipients Of such let
ter from Holland said tonight that be
had regarded the scheme as too chin
erical TO warrant his interest until
some more definite financial basis was
laid and he said that the other lawyers
whom he knows TO have received such
correspondence likewise turned a cold
shoulder To The scheme. as il stands al
present. although they are all agreed that
an International school of law, IL prop
erly backed, would be a good thing
For the erection of the palace OF peace
at The Hague for the International Court
Of Arbitration Mr.. Carnegie gave 81, ,750. 900.
Mr.. Carnegie is expected to be present
on Thursday at the international con-
ference TO be held in Washington OF the
American Society for the judicial Set
uement of international Disputes.
