Has Transferred $125, 200, 900.

Mr.. Carnegie has thus far transferred
to the corporation s125, ,oO0,O and it will,
it was announced yesterday, carry on
the various works in which he has been
engaged and such others as he may from
time to time think advisable to establish
Mr.. Carnegie believes that in this way
he has taken the surest means Of secur-
ing for the future a body of the best pos
sible trustees, as the heads of the institu-
tions named must inevitably be men of
high moral and intellectual standing.
The trustees are also empowered, it was
announced, by two-thirds vote. to madi-
fy or discontinue any branch of the serv-
ice which. in their Judgment had become
inadvisable or unnecessary; or, if better
use can be made of the funds, they can
adopt from time to time such work as by
them may be deemed most desirable for
the wants of the age, SO that from age
to age the fund may be expended upon
the most profitable work, whether that be
the promotion of new ideas or the de-
velopment of those of the day.
Action in Other Countries.
Other countries have. however, consid-
cred it of Importance to secure men who
have held high official rank from the
danger of spending their old age with
not sufficient to live upon. and from the
temptation OF Undertaking occupations
which might tend to bring into disrepute
the high Offices they have held. Thus in
England every cabinet minister who has
been in office for two years and makes
a declaration that his private income is
not above a certain figure, is entitled to
pension for life from the civil list. At
the present moment two pensions of
$4,000 year and three of $1,000 year
are thus being paid.
In many cases it has happened that ex-
Presidents of the United States have been
possessed of sufficient private means to
retire from all public activities and to
end their days in comfort and peace, like
George Washington, but in modern times,
with the long life in politics generally
demanded of any man who aspires to
the White House and the greater re-
quirements of social life, this has be-
come more and more difficult Andrew
Johnson, indeed, in 1869, retired into Sc
clusion, and little was heard of him till

OUTLINE OF TRUST SUITS
Attorney General to Give
Resume of the Taft
Program.

A complete resume of the trust prose
cutions program of President Taft's ad-
mnistration will be contained in the
forthcoming annual report of Attorney
General Wickersham. Particular en-
phasis will be laid upon the antitrust
record of the past four years. during
which seventy antitrust suits were in
stituted, while the combined total OF the
administrations of Presidents Harrison,
Cleveland, Mckinley and Roosevelt was
sixty-two. OF the seventy cases brought
by Mr.. Wickersham, thirty-nine were
criminal prosecutions and thirty-one civil
suits.
In the opinion of the Attorney General,
the efficacy of the Sherman law as a
criminal statute depends in large meas
ure upon the result of several cases
which are now pending. When the yer-
diets in those issues are rendered, the
Attorney General believes that a correct
estimate of the criminal phase OF the law
can be made.

Grants Sad Experience.

The saddest fortune that befell any
ex-President was that Of Gen. Ulysses S.
Grant. After he had retired and had
made his famous tour around the world
he settled down in New York city. He
was not a rich man. but had a compe-
tency Unfortunately he risked all he
possessed in the brokerage firm of Grant
& Ward, of which he and his son were
partners. By the mismanagement of a
partner the entire assets Of the firm were
wiped out at one stroke, and the EXPIRES
ident and veteran soldier found himself
forced in his old age to face the world
anew.
In his distress he went to William H.
Vanderbilt. Mr. Vanderbilt gave him a
| check for 500, 600, absolutely without Sc
curity This was swallowed up in the
| wreck, and Gen. Grant. in order to give
| some return for the money, took to the
fnancier all hi collection of swords of
| honor, medals and trophies. These Mr..
Vanderbilt afterward returned to Mrs.
| Grant, and they are now in the National
Museum, in this city. As soon as ne
saw that he was ruined the eX-President,
with indomitable pluck, turned to the OIL
fers which had often been made to him
by publishers for the writing of his rec
| objections. The Century invited him TO
| write some articles on his campaigns and
he contributed four.
He them set himself to write his mem
| oirs, and the last year of his lie, when
he was already fighting the cancer in his
mouth which killed him. was given up to
the production of the work Congress had
indeed placed him once more on the re-
| tired list of the army, thus assuring him
/ the paw of a general, but he persevered
| with his self-allotted task and completed
| it only four days before his death. In
this fight against overwhelming odds the
veteran soldier secured a suitable pro-
vision for his family.

May Continue in Senate.

Reports from Illinois suggest the possi-
bility that Mr.. Cullom's service in the
Senate will be continued after March 4
next, when his present term expires. In
the primaries in Illinois last spring. in
which Mr.. Cullom ran only at the urging
of his friends, he was defeated for the
republican nomination by Lawrence Y.

1t is now suggested. however, that Mr..
Cullom will be chosen to fill out the un-

Mr.. Carnegie's offer. Also, President-elect
Wilson on his retirement will become in
contestably eligible to a Carnegie pension
Mr.. Carnegie supported Mr.. Taft in the
recent campaign. When he returned from
Europe October 10 he said that he and
Col Roosevelt always had been friends,
although they didn't agree on political
questions. The news which reached him

Milwaukee led him to tear up a long
statement he had prepared on the polit-
ical situation

retary of State, declined to discuss the
matter.
