ADMIRATION PROMPTS BEQUEsT
Widow and Trustee to Act in Har-
mony With University.

Lexington, Va, March 15.-Prof.
Henry Louis Smith, of Washington
and Lee University, and Mr.. William
A. Anderson, member of the Uni
versity board of trustees and legal
counsel of the University, have re-
turned from New York, where they
met the trustees representing the
large bequest of Mr.. Robert P. Dore-
mus, whose will showed that he had
made Washington and Lee University
the beneficiary of his estate, valued
at over $2,O00,OO0 Dr. Smith and
Mr.. Anderson made the tri to New
York on invitation of the trustees
of the fund They conferred with
Mr.. G. J. McDermott, counsel for the
trustees, and also with Messrs. H. G..
S. Noble and Charles /. Andrews,
two of the trustees. They later saw
Mrs. Doremus. The trustees are de-
sirous of acting in the utmost har-
mony with the representatives of
Washington and Lee University in
the administration of the estate.
For the first time the motive infiu-
encing Mr.. Doremus in leaving
his large fortune to Washington and
Lee was learned. His admiration for
General Robert f. Lee prompted the
gift. His sympathes were with the
South and being without children he
was desiryus Of leaving lis estate for
the greatest good. He decided that
an educational institution in Nir-
ginia offered the most inviting field.
and then followed an invitation Of
the merits of the various Virginia
institutions of learning. While stop
ping at Warm Springs with his wife
in 1908, Mr.. Doremus visited LeXing-
ton and spent few hours at Wash
ington and Lee. He was much i'm
pressed with what he saw and decided
that the school bearing the name of
General Lee should receive his ac-
cunlulations at his death.
Mrs. Doremus contemplates visit
ing Washington and Lee university in
the not distant future.

NEWsOF THEDAY.

Returning from; the home of a priest
where she had gone to make arrange
ments to be confirmed next Sunday,
Catherine Palmer, ID years old, OF
Trenton, N. j., was attacked by a
man believed to be an Italian section
hand. She was found today in the
road near Trenton Junction. She was
so seriously injured that she cannot
live, it is said. The attack upon her
was similar to that recently on Luella
E. Marshall, of Trenton, who died
without being able to describe her
assailant. The child mas been able to
tell little of the assault. A man, she
saws, who looked like an Italian
sprang upon her from behind a tree
and seized her. The girl struggled
desperately, and the man, enraged by
her resistance, used great violence
to subdue her. The girls body was
a great mass of bruises and three fin
gers on one hand had been broken in
the struggle.

JUMPS FROM HIGH WINDOW.
Col0red Girl Will Probably Die as Re.
suit of Attempting to Escape.

Richmond, Va, March 15.-Fright-
encd, it was alleged, as she was in
the act of robbing the home of Miss
Josephine Taylor, of 202 South 3rd
street, where she was employed as a
house girl, Texanna Green, colored,
l3 years old, attempted to escape
by leaping from thlrd-story win
dow last night shortly after s o'clock.
After failing nearly 40 feet she land
ed on brick walk in the adjoining
yard and was probably fatally in
jured.
The girl is said to have stolen a
tin box, containing small sum Of
cash and some valuable papers own
ed by Miss Taylor while she and 9TH
er members of the household were
dining away from home. Miss Tay-
lor returned unexpectedly and the
girl evidently heard her step upon the
porch. She was in bed room On the
third floor, where the Tin box was
kept. Apparently alarmed and fear
ing detection she threw the box from

EFFORTS To BRING
WAR To A CLOSE
Sir Edward Grey Calls In;
formal Conference of Am
bassadors.
DEMANDS
Powers VIII Not Consent to All Ae-
gean Islands Being Taken From
Turkish Government.

London, March 15.-An informal
conference of the ambassadors of the
powers was called for this afternoon
at the foreign Office by Sir Edward
Grey, secretary of state for foreign af :
fairs, to consider the reply of the
Balkan allies to the powers offer to
mediate in the war against Turkey.
1t was generally admitted in diplo-
matte circles that the powers could
not accede to the demands made by
the allies. Opinion varied as to wheth-
er the allies demanded more than they
expected to get and counted on bar
gaining process or desired to prevent
without actually refusing the offer of
the greater nations.
The indemnity demands of the allies
are regarded as exorbitant, while to
fix the eastern boundary of ceded ter
ritory at Rodosto, as demanded by
Bulgaria would bring the Bulgarian
frontier down to the Sea Of
Marmora, cut off Gallipoli from Con-
stantinuple and weaken the Darda-
nelles as q defense Of Turkey-in-Asia
Also it is believed the powers will
not consent to all the Aegean Islands
being taken from Turkey, as the
Greeks demand.
Advices from Vienna, Sofia and Con-
s.antinople today said that the al
lei. were confident that Adrianople
and Scmari would fall in very short
time. 1t is believed here that the al
lies have purposely made demands
that the powers will contest in order to
s.ave off a formal peace conference
until Adrianople and Scutari nave fal-
len. The Greeks already hold Janina
and if the Bulgarians were. posses
sion of Adrianople and the Montene-
grins captured Scutari, the allies could
be in a more advantageous position
for debating peace terms.

WANT LAW REPEALED.

On the ground thaS large propor-
tion Of the land in Alexandria county
is owned by the United States govern
ment and exempt from taxation, Vlr-
ginia Senators and Representatives
in Congress will be urged to secure
the repeal of the law wtrequiring pay
ment of tuition by the children Of
Alexandria county who attend school
in Washington.
A resolution to this effect drafted
bv w. r. Hodges, county Superintend-
ent of schools, has beed passed by the
Board Of Supervisors al ID committee
of fifteen well-known residents OF the
county will present thes same to the
members of Congress.
The county authorities point cut that
the area of Alexandria cbunty n very
small. and much of it's te erritory is oc
cupied by Government reservations
such as Fort Myer, Arlington, etc.
upon which no taxes are' paid. The
school revenues therefore suffer, and
it is contended that the federal gov
ernment should meet this loss by offer
ing educational opportunities to the
children of Alexandria county IN the
Washington schools.

Governor William Hodges Mann re-
sponded to the toast "Virginia," in
which he omitted all reference to the
history of the State and spoke only
of the present and its possibilities
of the future. He recited as one re-
suit of the labors of the constitu-
tional convention that it had enabled
the state to collect larger sum by
taxation without increasing the rate.
