$I,5OO,OOO CHAPEL
Part of Latest Gift to University
OF Chicago Devoted to
Religion

CHICAGO, Dec. 21.-President Harr,
Pratt Judson of the University of Chi
cago made public today the letter from
John d. Rockefeller, in which the lat
ter made suggestions as to how hi.
last donation of SIC, 900, 900 to the uni
versity should be spent
Religious instruction is the chief OBJ
ject the donor provides for
The letter is dated December Is. ant
says, in part:
1t is my desire that at least the
sum of 81 800 900 be used for the
erection and furnishing of a uni
Versity chapel. AS the spirit of
religion should penetrate and con-
troll the university, so the build
ing which represents religion
ought to be the central and donoi-
nant feature of the university
group.
Whether the chapel can be so
planned as to admit of housing the
Young Mems Christian Association
and all the distinctively religious
functions of the university, or
whether this will require a sep
arate building, is matter that can
best be decided in connection with
the plans of the architects l will
ask you kindly to submit the plans
before their final adoption to nv
son, who will be fully informed re-
garding my wishes
Apart from what may be re-
quired for the chapel the remain
der of the fund may be used. in
the discretion of the trustees, for
land, buildings or endowment. but
no part of the principal sum Shall
be used for current expenses.

FATHER ACCUSED OF

to the Pacific ocean, which is to be
joined TO the Atlantic by this colossal
engineering achievement.
Probably never in the history of this
country has such an interesting battle
between two American cities been
waged. The big factor in San Fran
ciseo's favor is that the whole state OF
California stands united in favor of
getting the exposition. Out there, they
do not count the expense. They know
it viii cost millions OF dollars and that
there will be no immediate profit. But
they want to show the world that an
American city, once stricken low, can
rise again, mightier, Drawer and bigger
than before.
FIGHT FOR RECOGNITION
The tug Of war is for recognition by
congress so that the representatives
Of other nations may be invited to at
tend. Either city could go ahead and
hold a fair, but each wants its city to
be officially recognized. Efforts are be-
ing made to have President Taft come
out in favor of one of the cities, but
while he and Speaker Cannon are said
TO favor an exposition at San Francisco,
a s a tribute to its plucky rise, neither
has as yet made a definite statement.
Charles Louque. attorney for the Tax
payers association of New Orleans, has
unexpectedly aided San Francisco with
a statement that New Orleans is al
ready heavily in debt and that the peo-
pie do not care to take on the financial
responsibility of an exposition. He says
that the people Of Louisiana have been
taxed unwiningly and unfairly for an
exposition they do not want;
Advocates of the lakes to the gulf
proposition are pulling wire to draw
New Orleans out of the fight for the
canal celebration. They say a water
ways celebration would mean much
more to the southern city and would
be of permanent commercial benefit.
with men like Frank L. Brown, one
of the biggest business men of san
Francisco; Leon Sloss. A. w. Scott,
Governor Gillett. Hiram johnson, Sen
ator Flint of California, and a host OF
other big men, pulling whole heartedly
for San Francisco. with united state
behind them. the chances of San Fran
cisco 10 win the exposition seem TO be
excellent.
While the New Orleans boomers are
still in the fight and assert that the
reports of dissatisfaction in their nome
citv arc exaggerated. San Francisco
insists that il will get the fair and snow
the world how the sturdy west OF the
United. States can make Italy, France
and switzerland look like sideshows al

Moreover, New Orleans expects an
