Leading Figure IL Gigantic Loan.

Mr.. Hill recently added to his
laurels as one of the worlds greatest
financiers by being the leading factor
in the negotiations for 100000, 900
loan to the allies In the European war.
The loan was made on condition
that none Of It be spent for war mu.
nitions. Most of the money was used
in the purchase Of food supplies and
made 1t possible for the farmers of
the Northwest to dispose of the sur.
plus last fall of the record breaking
wheat crop.
Mr.. Hill was the father Of nine chill.
dren. They are Louis W. Hill, St. Paul;
Mrs. Samuel Hill, Washington, D. c.;
James n. Hill. New York; Miss Clara
Hfll. st. Paul; Mrs George T. slade,

Mr.. Hills wealth Is estimated all
the way from 100000, 900 to $500. .ooo,'
000. It probably is nearer the former
figure than the latter.

MILLIONS GIVEN BY
HILL FOR EDUCATION

st. Paul, May 31.-Millions of dol.
lars in aid of educational and charita.
BILE institutions have been contributed
by James J. Hill during the last twen.
ty years. in all cases without ostenta.
ton, and until some friend in a posi-.
ton to obtain the facts has prepared
q complete list, the total and extent
of the benefactions will not be known.
He gave without drawing religious or
other lines, but his policy was mainly
directed to encouraging struggling in.
stitutions in the territory of the Great
Northern system. Hardly denomi.
national school between the Twin
Cities and the Pacific coast but has
been aided to some extent by him.
A gift of 100000 to Yale university,
so far as known, is his only large
benefaction in the East. Minnesota,
and especially the city of st. Paul,
have been the chief beneficiaries.
