WEALTH IS TO AID HUMANITY
RocKEFELLERP PLANS GREAT COR
PoRATIoN FOR HIS FORTUNE.
Bill Introduced in Congress Provides
for an Organization Which Will
Benefit Mankind.

Washington.-For the benefit of his
fellow men John D. Rockefeller is
seeking a method of disposing of his
vast fortune.
Under the provision of a bill intro
duced in the Senate Wednesday by
Senator Jacob II. Gallinger of New
Hampshire the oil king seeks a fed
eral incorporation act for his wealth,
with a view to distributing it under
proper supervision for the good Of
mankind. The object of the founda-
ton is to provide for a general or
ganization to conduct philanthropic
work along all lines.
According to the bill the Rockefeller
foundation is organized for these pur-
poses: To promote the well-being and
advance the civilization of the people
Of the United States and its posses
sions in foreign lands; for the ac'
quisition and dissemination of knowl-
edge; for the prevention of any and
all of the elements of human knoWl-
edge.
The incorporators named in the bill
are: John D. Rockefeller, John d.
Rockefeller, Jr.; Fred T. Gates, Starr
]. Murphy, Charlese A. Heydt
These men are authorized to select
associates not to exceed 25, and it
is provided that there SHALL not be at
any time fewer than five.
Headquarters of the foundation are
to be in Washington.
1T is the evident intention of MI
Rockefeller to provide means of ex-
pending his wealth to the best advan'
tage of the largest number of people,
said Senator Gallinger.
1t was stated by the senator that
Mr.. Rockefeller already had given
away $J2, 100000.
The proposed foundation is to be
organized along lines similar to the
Carnegie Foundation for the Advance
ment of Teaching.

BALLINGER INQUIRY LAGS
Pinchot Again Accuses Secretary with
Having Made Misstatements and
Deceived Taft.

hington.-Interest in the Bal
linger-Pinchot investigation continued
to lag Friday as the cross-examina-
tion of Mr.. Pinchot by Mr.. Vertrees
developed little which was not gone
over in the evidence.
There was much quibbling between
counsel and the witness as to the
meaning and Interpretation of certain
statements Mr.. Pinchot had made and
opinions as to the understanding Of
various letters and documents. Mr..
Pinchot again accused Secretary Bal
linger of having made misstatements.
With reference to his claim that Mr.
Ballinger had deceived the president
concerning a decision of the comptrol-
Ter of the treasury, Mr.. Pinchot ad-
mitted that Mr.. Ballingers written
statement to the president was "pret-
ty fair, from Mr.. Ballinger's point Of
view," and that the documents that
he submitted were all that properly
bore on the case. He insisted, how
ever, there was the unavoidable in
ference" that Mr.. Ballinger had COM
municated in some other way with the
president.
Mr.. Ballinger's lawyer brought out
that the cooperative agreement with
the forest service, which Mr.. Ballinger
discontinued, was not the usual ar
rangement whereby one department
lends its employees temporarily to an
other, but provided that employees OF
the interior department should be un-
der the exclusive control and jurisdic-
ton of the forester.

100000 MEN STRIKE
ORDER FOR GENERAL WALK-oUT
AT PHILADELPHIA
Is GIVEN.
RIOTS BREAK OUT AT ONCE
Governor Tells Mayor Troops VIII Be
Ordered to City Whenever Neees-
sary-serIous Trouble ls Antiei-
pated-Two Men Are Shot.

Philadelphia-A general strike OF
all the labor unionists in this city, In
sympathy with the street car men
who have been out for two weeks,
was ordered at IL o'clock Friday
night Just how many men will be
out of work as a result could not then
be told as there are but very few
union or non-union men at work at
that hour.
But already the riots of last week
had been resumed. Scarcely had the
news of mo peace possible" reached
the Kensington district from which
the State Constabulary has been with
drawn than there was pitched bat
tie between a mob of sympathizers OF
the car men strikers. A squad Of 60
policemen charged the mob, which
numbered about 5000 mill workers.
First the shots were fired over the
heads of the mob; but when this did
not scare off the rioters volley was
fired directly at the crowd in the
street. William Drexel, one of the
mill workers, was fatally shot through
the abdomen. Another man, Robert
Model, several blocks away, was
dangerously wounded in a row.
The Central Labor union declared
at the midnight hour that 100000
places would be vacant. The Phila'
delphia Rapid Transit Company and
other anti-unionists predicted that
there would not be more than 10000
Or $4,000 idle men on the streets.
At the same time, though, this word
went out from Mayor Reyburn and his
under police officers at the city hall:
ITO Gov. Stuart, Harrisburg: Please
be ready to send troops of National
Guard here at an instants notice"
"To all N. G. P. commands in the
state: Please be ready to start for
Philadelphia upon moments notice
from governor"
Replies received from the governor
and the commanders of the various
companion of National Guardsmen in
| dicated that both wires were to be
obeyed The governor answered that
he would issue the order for the
troops to proceed here whenever il
would be necessary. Captains and
colonies said they had their men wait
ing to start at any minute.
AS men assembled on street corners
and in the neighborhood saloons, the
first mutterings of what is feared will
be a tumultuous week we're heard.
There will certainly be a boycott
against the cars and against any
tradesmen doing business with the
transit company or its strikebreakers
and there will be very probably vic
lence worse than that of the early
days Of last week.
Most of the locals" of the unions
held meetings at which the members
pledged that neither they nor any
members of their families would ride
in cars manned by strikebreakers
They would not deal, they declared
with tradesmen who sold supplies tt
the companies or the strikebreakers
or who even rode on the non-unior
cars.

Travelling Man Got Even.

A travelling man called on the man
ager of large New York concern the
other day and sent his card in by the
boy at the outside gate. The boy
sauntered back lazily and told the
travelling man that the manager
wouldn't see him.
well, you go and ask him for the
card sent in," said the caller.
In a few minutes the boy returned
from his second trip. Say" remarked
the boy, "the boss told me to tell you
that he tore up that card, but he sent
a nickel to you to pay for it."
The travelling man was deeply in
suited, but he decided to get back as
best he could. He opened his card
case and drew out another card, hand
ing it to the boy.
Give this to your boss" he said,
land tell him that I'll keep the money
My cards are two for five. Much
obliged"
The manager rushed out of the gate
to find the travelling man, but he was
too late. The man had left.
