PUBLIC BUILDINGS BILL.
Something Definite viii Probably Be
Known March 10th.
Especial to The Bulletin.

Especial to The Bulletin.)
Washington, March This is the
day when the house committee on
public buildings and grounds agreed
to decide whether there is to be a
general public building bill this ses-
sion or not, but the committee this
morning was about as far from a de-
cision as before. It is now stated that
nothing definite will be determined
upon before March 10th. This is
caused partly by the fact that the river
and harbor bill has not as yet been
reported to the senate, and the ques-
ton now is how large that will be.
The prevailing opinion is that there
will be general bill, if the state of the
finances will warrant such action and
the president is willing to have one.
1t VIII he a small one, however, prob
ably not over 10000, 600. If this
amount is agreed upon there will be
Very few large appropriations for any
individual building and mostly sites
will be provided for.
Mr.. Sperry has the assurance of
members of the committee that New
Haven will receive something, but it
will probably be only enough for a site.
Some other Connecticut buildings will
probably also be included in the bill,
but as yet the committee has not
taken up consideration of any project

SHARP CLASH IN U. s. SENATE
Between Heyburn and Carter Over the Administration
..s~-sz.~@ Postal Savings Bill.

Senator carter, who is in charge Of the
bill He had begun by suggesting a
change in the title to the bill, and Mr..
Carter charged him with thus trying
to change the constitutional character
of the bill.
Mr. Hepburn replied somewhat We
hemently that he made no such effort.
and Mr.. Carter undertook to show that
he did do so. While the Montana
senator was speaking Mr.. Hepburn at
tempted to interrupt. Mr.. Carter de-
cHned to yield.
Il should think he would decline af-
ter such a speech as he has made de-
clared the Idaho senator, and he start
ed out of the chamber.
And l." retorted the Montana SEN
ator, would think that the senator
would leave the room after such speech
as he has made"
Mr. Hepburn stopped for a moment
to hear the last words of his opponent
as he entered a convenient cloak ROOM
Mr. Carter declared the Hepburn
substitute ridiculous and said that Mr..
Hepburn offered to present something
different rather than to present some
thing better"

Washington, March 1.-THE admins
tration postal savings bank bill may

mittee when the time comes tomorrow

senate.
Senator Hepburn of Idaho SO inti-
mated dn o speech in the senate today
on his substitute for the pending bill.
Whether he would offer the substitute,
he said, would depend upon develop
meuts tomorrow.
IT have heard many expressions of
dissatisfaction with the legislation as
it stands" he said. "a number of SEN
ators have indicated a desire that the
bill be recommitted in order that 1t
may have further consideration before
we commit ourselves irrevocably to the
policy of a postal savings system
He added that the republican party
was under no pledge to pass a savings
law at the very beginning of the Taft
administration. There would still be
time for consideration if the bill should
go back to the committee.

ROCKEFELLER PLANS
TO DISPOSE OF HIS RICHES.
Foundation to Be Incorporated for the
Benefit of Mankind.

Washington, March 2.-Steps were
taken today to incorporate the Rock
efeller foundation in the District of
Col ;stas The bin for this purpose
and was referred to the committee on
judiciary. The purpose of the founda-
ton is to provide for a general or
s,1,z ion to conduct philanthropis
that the foundation will be endowed
largely by John D. Rockefeller and
that he takes this meaDs to dispose of
a large part OF his enormous wealth
Objects of Measure.
The Rockefeller foundation, accord
ing to the bill, is organized to pro-
mote the well being and advance the
civilization of the people of the United
States and its possessions in foreign
senination of knowledge; for the pre-
vention and relief of suffering and
promotion Of any and all of the e1e-
ments of human knowledge.
1t was stated by Senator Galiinger
today that Mr.. Rockefeller already
had given away S52,000,000 and that
he was seeking a method of disposing
of his fortune that would benefit man
kind.
Like Carnegie Foundation.
The foundation is organized on lines
similar to the Carnegie foundation for
the advancement of teaching. AS in
the case of the latter institution, the
lied to receive and dispense gifts OF
money other than those obtained from
the original endowments, the amounts
of which have not been fixed.
Possible to Go Into Any Form of Phil
anthropy.
New York, March starr J. Muir
ply one of the incorporatorS named in
the Gallinger bill to establish the Rock
efeller foundation, said today that he
did not yet know what endowment the
foundation would have.
1.-The bill introduced today" said Mr..
Murphy, zig intended to broaden the
scope of Mr.. Rockefeller's philanthrop-
les, and is almost identical in form
with the act of congress of 1908, under
which the Rockefeller foundation fund
it possible for Mr.. Rockefeller to go in
to any form of philanthropy in the
world, whereas the first endowment
was specifically limited The fact that
the incouporators in both instances are
almost identical simply means that Mr..
Rockefeller believes their experience
will be of benefit in future work"
Estimates of Mr. booksellers past
largely 1t is conceded that in char
ity he has but one 1eader-Andrew
Carnegie-and the best opinion is that
Mr.. Rockefeller has given away some
against sf61, o0o, 900 for Mr.. Carnegie.
Rockefeller Fortune Estimated at One
Billion.
How much Mr.. Rockefeller has left
is even harder to guess than how much
he has given away In 1907 Frederick
r. Gates, one of Roc1zefeller's agents in
charity, said:
MIR. Rockefeller himself has author
lied the statement that his fortune
cannot exceed 5000. 900, and that in
his most prosperous wear his income
was not above s20,o00,000 His holdings
of Standard Oil stocks are not above
20 per cent. of the total issue outstand-
ing"
On the other hand, the late H. H.
Rogers is quoted as having said in
1906:
at know for a fact that Mr.. Rookie
feIler's income will exceed $50 1000. 0oo
next year"
The late Senator Hoar of Massachu-
sets estimated the Rockefeller fortune
at 81 600, 00o, 900.

The Question of Graduation Dress.
In New Haven the question of grad
uation dress has already come up for
discussion. When asked his opinion
in the matter, Superintendent Beeds
said: eIia SgAkEMHEa
~ the towns and cities of this
country in the past, there has been
a disposition to extravaganza in this
matter of dress. Here in New Haven
for several years there has been a dis
position TO- oppose any extrava giant

members of the several boards of edu-
81 n and of the PRINCIPAL of the high
school and the superintendent Of
Schools.
Il would say the expense should lbe
so slight that no parent should feel
it a burden in providing dress for their
children at graduation. OF course.
children like to mako a holiday occa-
sion of graduation, and many times a
new dress is provided. But the main
idea should be to avoid needless ex-
travagance. I believe this disposition
is growing in this city in favor of
simple dress. This is as it should be,
7 believe. OF course, many parents
cannot go into extravaganza in this
line and they should not be compelled
to.

The movement in this State against
the Importation Of foundlings,o as il
is called, is ill-advised. While it is
right to remove some Of the restrie-
tions that have made it difiuclt for
even good people to adopt orphans
from the homes within the States
borders, the fact remains that the
majority Of persons wishing to adopt
a child prefer taking one that has no
known relatives, and this initiates
more largely against Louisiana or
phans finding good homes than any
other one factor. Persons prefer
adopting children without family
connections, and for this reason rush
to get the orphans brought here
from New York. So long as en-
vironment does more for a child than
heredity there can be no great dan
ger in giving homes to the children
