was good one and was one of the

made 10 hits and Guymon 5. The
return game will be played at Guy

good team, and If they had proper
encouragement In the way Of enthus-

funds at hand, but to reach out and Sc
cure additional funds which he and all
interested in the institution have realized
| We're necessary for its maintenance and
growth, and these efforts of Chancellor
kirkland during his administration have
resulted in more than doubling the finan-
cial resources of the university exclu-
sively of the present gift.
"On the other hand, during this period
If controversy the bishops of the Meth
odist Episcopal church. south, have add
ed nothing to the endowment of the Van
derbilt university In this they have per-
haps been consistent and have followed
the traditions of the church for many
years prior thereto. In fact, while the
Methodist church has from time to time
contributed to the theological depart
ment, its contribution is being limited,
even in that department, to the prose-
cution OF new work; thus not in the least
releveing the previous strain under
which the university has been laboring.
For other departments of the university
and the general cause of education, as
far as Vanderbilt university is concerned,
they have given nothing.
"A few years ago the College of Bish-
ops sought to prevent the consummation
Ol lilt arrangement WHICH resulted III the
acquisition of 100000 for the medical de-
partment, as ] have heretofore set out,
and now they are seeking to interfere
with the consummation of the gift to the
medical department-the most magnificent
that has been made at. any one time to
this institution by anybody in its history.
In other words the attitude of Bishop
Hoss and those holding with him has uni
formly been that of criticism and obstruc-
tion rather than that of cooperation and
construction.
They have preferred to have the tri-
umph of idea in regard to the rights
of the church prevail, even though it nee
essarily means, as it does in the present
instance, the deprivation to the university
of the money which it is essential for it
to have in order to fulfill it's destiny,
Il am unwilling for the world at large
to conclude that the attitude of Bishops
Hoss and Gambler in this matter is rep
resentative of the sentiment of this sec
ton toward such phianthropies. 1t is
certainly in decided contrast to the ex-
pressions of gratitude and appreciation
which have been conveyed by the gov
ernor of this state, the mayor of this
city and its leading commercial organi-

ROBBERY WAVE IN
LONDON AND OTHER
CITIES OF ENGLAND
Women Startled by Sugges.
ton That Girls Read
and Discuss
Novels

London, June 2S.-London and severa
other large cities of England have beer
suffering of late from an epidemic of jew
elry and other robberies. From the way
some of the thefts have been carried Out
the police have come to the conclusion
that they are the work of expert interna-
tional crooks. and the authorities are
keeping a close watch on the crowds OF
those gentry who visit London during the
season. Other cases, however, are OBJ
viously the work of amateurs several OF
whom leaving well marked trails behind
them, have been gathered in by the de-
tectives from Scotland Yard. That the
police, on the other hand, have been baf-
fled by many of the robberies in which
large sums have been involved, they
themselves admit In one or two cases
they are convinced that the victims" re-
ported robberies to cover losses of Jew
elry either through extravaganza or gam
bling, and these occurrences have been
marked off the police books as solved.
Still large number of cases are receiving
close attention.
One of the most daring of these recent
thefts was made from Christies, the fa-
nous auction rooms, which is probably
one of the best guarded places in the me-
tropolis. At the conclusion of day. s
sale the attendants found that three i'm

ued or not. 1t therefore appears to
me that Bishop fIoss is premature in
his objections to the university accepting
this gift since in the event the board of
trustees are successful in the litigation
he certainly can have no grounds for
his objection and if they are successful
1t will lie within his power and the
power of those who will be in control
of him to return the fund to Mr.. Car
negie and cancel the contract referred to
if, in their opinion it is in the interest OF
the university, the cause of education
the church or any of the other interests
involved 20 do so.
No Justification
"From the standpoint of the university
and the South, which / think should
receive some consideration at the hands
of the Bishop, | can see no Justification
for his present attitude. Bishop Can
lers attitude is not dissimilar to that
taken by him several years ago with
regard to Mr.. Rockefellers gift of
81 oo0.0O0 for the eradication of the hook
worm to which he referred in con-
temptuous terms as a 'vermifuge'
That remains one question some
what delicate in it's nature to which

Ter is quoted as saying:
" TO this Mr.. Carnegie makes allusian
relation to this suit as to make it tant
amount to dangling money before the
public with the purpose of influencing
his case; and Bishop Hoss, while less
direct in his statements. includes in his
letter the following statement:
Now comes Mr.. Carnegie, however.
and throws a million dollars into the
state against the church. 1t is a fair
Inference from these statements that
these dignitares of the church are seek
ing to create the impression that Mr.
Carnegie and the board of trust of the
Vanderbilt university are endeavoring
in the offer and acceptance of this gift
in some way to influence the decision
of the pending litigation.

In reply to the published statements

to Vanderbilt Medical department, Mr..
Whitefoord r. Cole. secretary of the

statement from Bishop e. E. Hoss with
reference to the donation by Mr.. Carne-
gle of a million dollars to the medical
department of Vanderbilt university. A
similar outbreak from Bishop w. A. Cand-
Ter. except that it is couched in terms of
coarser abuse of Mr.. Carnegie, appears
in an Associated Press dispatch from At
lanta.
During the many years that Bishop
TIoss and his associates have been writ
ing for publication similar controversial
articles with respect to the control and
management of the university, both be-
fore and since the pending litigation was
instituted by them, | have refrained from
contributing anything by way of publ
cation to this controversy, feeling par
ticularly since the litigation referred to
has been instituted, that the courts were
the proper place to try the merits of the
points at issue. In the face, however, OF
the misleading and erroneous statements
contained in both of the articles referred

| time. which is offensive to him. there
| fore it is manifest that Bishops Hoss and
| Gambler must aassume the responsibility
| for injecting into the situation at this
| time any reference to the pending litiga-
| ton.
Making a summary of the situation
ii may be said without fear of contradic-
tion, that no property rights, either of
| the university itself or of the church, are
| impaired by this arrangement, nor in any
! light could the church, in case Bishop
Hoss and his associates succeed to the
control of the university, find itself de-
| prived of any property or any right in
the university's interests as a result of
! this donation The one change in the
situation is that the present board of
! trust. in the acceptance of the gift find
themselves able to carry out plan even
larger. and even beyond any plan that
they had definite hope for, whereas to
! have declined the donation would not only
have been loss of such a realization,
| but would have been practically to shut
the door against future benefactions of
| similar character.
OF Great Benefit
| "No thoughtful man can fail to ap-
preciate the fact that nothing has hap
| pened in the past 20 years in this section
of the country that promises as much
| for the benefit of Nashville, and the en-
tire south-that promises so much for the
! future of Vanderbilt university and its
! influence in education, as the gift of Mr..
| Carnegie. To have declined such a prop
osition would not only have been folly
on the part of the board of trust. but
would have been a plain violation of the
, highest obligations on the part of the
| trustees to the trust imposed upon them.
THE bishops of the Methodist Episco-
| pal church, south, in their zeal, or what
| they think to be their cause, are seeking
| to prevent the university from securing
| the means TO carry out the great plans
which are made sure. of execution by
| this donation. Al the same time the public
will bear in mind that in this matter, as
| in matters of the past, they are Offering
nothing to the university by way of an
| alternative to take the place of this ben
| efaction. During all the periods of years
covering this controversy the attitude of
Chancellor kirkland and the attitude of
some of the bishops have been in strik-
ing contrast; on the one hand Chancellor
Kirkland, keeping always in view the
highest ideals of the founders of the uni
versity and those who have worked for

girls will go into residence for at least
eight weeks in the year, in order to gain
practical experience of the routine work
of household. Mr.. Peace in his OPEN
ing address, said the government appre-
clated efforts of the kind, and in connec-
tion with trade schools had practically
doubled the grants. With training for
household work he believed the idea that
domestic service was servle trade
would not survive. that the status of do
mestic servants would be elevated, and
that there would be a corresponding i'm
provement in the conditions of service
maintained by the employer.
