ANGLO-
 GERMAN CHARITY
Sir Cassel, Late Kings Fin ancial Adviser, Starts It
 With $1,000,O0O.
FOR POOR CUT OF WORK
For Procuring Employment for Eng. fish in Germany and Germans
 in England.

Berlin, Aug. H.-Sir Ernest Cassel, the English inancier. has arranged to establish a foundation Of $1, 1000, 900 the income from which is to be us- ed for the benefit of poor Germans seeking employment in England, and poor British subjects seeking work in Germany, who are without money for their support. The new foundation will be in memory of the late King Edward of England, who was a friend of Sir Ernest, and with whom the
 fnancier had been closely associated for many years. He was among the last persons to be received by the late King before his death.
 Theodore Wolf, editor of the Tage- blattS who makes the announcement, adds that he learns that King George and Queen Mary of Great Britain, the Queen Mother Alexandra and Em- peror William and Empress Augusta, of Germany have agreed to act as pa irons of the fund.
 a man who has worked from the bot tom of the ladder to the top rung in English life. He was born in 1857. the son of a baker. He entered the London financial house of Bis choffsheim & Goldsmid as a clerk, eventually becoming a partner in the firm. He was an important factor in the railroad system in Mexico, but his most notable achievement is the great Nile dam, which he rendered possible by, providing the funds to build it. In many other instances he rendered invaluable services to the British gov vernment by financing great public works. iHe was the late King Ed ay-db Aon ;a1 Ixyicn ic that, thanks to his management of the royal funds, the King left a large fortune and no debts: In 1902 Sir Ernest placed s1,000,000 at the Kings disposal for charitable or utilitarian purposes. The money was devoted to the establishment of a Sanitariun for cOnSumptiveS.
 King Edward was anxious to raise Sir Ernest to the peerage at the time of the coronation, but he found he could not do so without a special act of Parliament. William of Orange had created many of his Dutch fa- vofittes British peers, and had given them large estates. The first George followed in his footsteps by present fish coronets. To prevent this law was passed making 1t impossible for men not born British subjects to be- come peers and so Sir Ernest was barred. But later he attained a social distinctiop> must have gone far to reconcile him to this disap- pointment. He has long been con nected with the turf and is devoted to the sport, though he never succeed ed in carrying away any of it's blue ribbons. But in 1908 he was elected a member Of the Jockey Club, perhaps the most exclusive organization in the world. Sir Ernest is a member of the Privy Council, and holds the grand cross of the Order of St. Michael and St George and that of the Victorian Order.
