BISHOP MCCOY TO
OPPOSE ACCEPTING
CARNEGIE BIG GIF 7
Thinks 1t Part of Effort to
Wrest Vanderbilt From
the Control of the
MethOdists

While he declined to express himself as
emphatically as Bishop w. A. Gambler
concerning the offer of $l,OOo 600 ON the part
of Andrew Carnegie to the medical school
of Vanderbilt university, Bishop James II.
Mccoy looks with absolute disfavor on
the proposal of the laird of Skibo.
1.-THE impudent proposal of an agnostc
steelmonger." was the Characterization OF
the peppery bishop of Atlanta.
Bishop Mccoy said yesterday: Il am
opposed to the acceptance of the offer
was one of committee of three which
Investigated, and one of the three which
unanimously will recommend its refusal
1t would appear that the gift is no gift
put an effort of the steelmaller to get con-
lrol of a branch of the university which
is the property of the Methodists and
make of 1t medical college after his own
fashion,
Bishop Mccoy will attend the meeting
of bishops today, and it is generally
thought that the offer of Carnegie will he
turned down.
Among the Methodists of the city great
| interest in the suit was shown through
out yesterday, especially as The Age
ierald had contained terse comment IN
| the part of Bishops Hoss and Gambler.
| vanderbilt university is claimed by the
dethodists as their property. Some time
ago question TO ownership was raised
and was carried to court. The lower court
| declared the property 70 be that of the
! Methodists. An al peal was taken, and
TINS appeal is now pending in the supreme
court of Tennessee.
because that appeal is pending, Bishop
Hoss declared that the offer of Carnegie
was as if dangling gold for the purpose OF
ahecting litigation. One of the terms
under which Carnegie made his offer was
| mat the medical department should be OPP
Grated without connection with the
