A gift of ;10. 000,000 by Andrew Carnegie to provide an nuities for college profesBors who are not able to continue In active service waa an nounced today by Frank A. Vanderllp, vice-president H)f the National City Bank jt New Yorkl . Professors In the United States, Canada and Newfoundland will share in the distribution of the Income of the fund. United States Steel Corporation 5 per cent first mortgage bonds for 510, 000,000 have bcoti transferred to a board of trustees, and steps, .'will be taken at once to organize a corporation to receive the donation. Dr. Pritchett, president of the Massa chusetts Institute of Technology, and Mr. Vanderlip have- been selected by Mr. Car negie to obtain daTa oh the' sbbjecf to be presented at the first meeting of the board of trustees. . which' will take place on November 25. Mr. "Vanderllp today sent the following letter to the press: Trust Fund Is Created. Mr. Andrew Carnegie ""has transferred to a board of trustees, onsleting in the- main of presidents of the most -Important colleges in tl-e United States and Canada, 510.000,000 fret mortgage 5 per cent Steel Corporation bonds. The purpose of the trust fund thus created Is to provide annuities for college professors in the United States and Canada and Newfoundland, who from old age or oher dliablUty are "no longer In a position o render the most efficient service. It is Mr Carnegie's belief that this fund will ! rot only provide a dignified pension system j Jt a body of most worthy, self-sacrificing pnd poorly-paid men. but that it will be of tflFtinct value to the cause of education in j offejing an opportunity to the trustees of a j oTIege to retire members of the faculty J who have faithfully served the institution j fc many years, and to replace such men j r th joung. Intelligent and. efficient pro- j tutors. I am taking the liberty of inclosing j-erewlth Mr. Carnegie's letter outlining the nature of his bequest. This letter was , written to the members of Che board of trustees. The list of trustees Is also in Ciosed. All have accepted. Steps will at once be- taken to organize a corporation to formally roccive the bequest. The ftrt meeting of the hoard of trustees lias been called for November lfi. In the Teantlme. It is Mr. Carnegie's desire that Dr Pritchett. president of the Massachus etts Institute of Technology, and myself. , proceed to obtain data from all the institu tions concerned for use at the meeting of f ie trustees. The bonds which Mr. Carnegie has so generously donated have a market alue of 511,000,000. and will produce an annual income of $500,000. The corporation which is being formed will be styled "The Carnegie Foundation." Tours very truly. F. A. VANDERLIP. Professors Arc Poorest Paid. Mr. Carnegie's letter to the trustees is dated April IS, and is as follows: I have r6aced the conclusion that the 'east rewarded of all the professions is that o' the teacher in our higher educational in stitutions. New York City generously and verj wlEely provides retiring pensions for teachers-In her public schools and also for r policemen. Very few Indeed of our'col leges are able to do so. The consequences are grievous. Able men hesitate to adopt teaching as a career, and many old pro fessors whose places should be occupied by jounger men cannot be retired. I have, therefore, transferred to you and our successors as trustees 510.000.000 J! pr cent flrst mortgage bonds of the United States Steel Corporation, the revenue from which I to provide Tetlrlng pensions for the teachers 'of universities," colleges and technical schools in our country. Canada and Newfoundland, under such conditions as jou may adopt from time to time. Expert calculations show that the revenue will be ample for the purpose. The fund applies to three classes of Insti tutions named, without regard to .race, scr. 'reed or color. We have, however, to recog nise that state and colonial governments which have established or mainly support universities, colleges or schools, may prefer that their relations shall remain exclusively with them. I cannot, therefore, presume to Include them. There Is another class which states do not aid. their constitutions in some cases even forbidding -it; -viz, sectarian institutions. Many of theso established long ago were truly sectarian, but today are free to all men of all creeds, or of aone. None such arc to be considered 'sectarian. Only such as are under control of a sect or require trustees (or a majority thereof), officers, faculty or students to belong to any speci fied sect, or which impose any theological test, are to be excluded. Rules Governing Trustees. Trustees shall hold office five years, and le eligible for"re-olectton. The first trustees shall draw lota for one, two. three, four or fe-ycar terms, so that one-flfth shall retire -each year. Each Institution participating in the fund e?iau cast one vote for trustee. The trustees are hereby given full powers o manage the trust in every respect, to fill acancaes of non-officlo members; appoint executive committees, employ agents, change securities, and generally speaking to- dp all t'lings necessary In their Judgment to Insure te most bcneflclal disposition of the funds. By a two-thirds vote they may, from time to tlmn, apply the revenues in a different wanner and for a different though similar purpose to that specified, should' coming day bring such changes as render this necessary in their Judgment to produce the best re suits possible for the teachers and for edu cation. No trustee shall incur any legal liability growing from his trusteeship. AH traveling and hotel expenses Incurred by trustees In the performance of their duties shall be paid from the fund, the expenses of wife or daughter accompanying the trustees to tho annual meeting included. I hope this fund may do much for the cause of higher education, ana to remove a. source of deep and constant anxiety to the poorest paid, and yet one of the highest of all professions. -Gratefully yours, ANDREW CARNEGIE.

SPECIAL CABLE. ROME. April 27. John Redmond, cham pion of Ireland in the British Parliament, was received by the pope in audience yes terdaj'. and received, pontifical blessings upon all those interested in the movement to give Ireland home rule and religious freedom. The meeting was most cordial. The visitor explained- that his- party, the Nationalist, was the defender of Cathol icism in Ireland, because Catholicism was the national religion of the Irish. It Is his party's purpose, he added, to win by peaceful means, full religious and civil rights for Ireland. After listening to Mr. Redmond's state ment, tho pope said that the movement had his blessing, and he sent an apostolic benediction to every member of the Irish party and their families. Upon leaving, .the pope presented Mr. Redmondwith his photograph, upon which he had written a long inscription wishing success to the alms of the Irish party. SHARP REBUKE TO KAISER Supposed Official Utterance Excites i French Public Opinion. . PARIS, April 27, The Moroccan" ques tion is exciting renewed anxiety despite the fact that Premier Rouvlcr dined, with Prince von Radolln. the German Am bassador to France at the German Em bassy last night, and other external ap pearances of improvement. The unfavor able turn is due rather to tho threaten ing tone of some of the newspapers which are considered to reflect official senti ment. This is particularly true of an article in the Matin. In which it is said: "No matter what his power, It is be lieved the German Emperor must re nounce the hope of Inflicting 'a check upon us, even to our self-respect. France is no longer Isolated as in 1870. Tho" iso lation is now on the side of Germany." The newspapers opposing the govern ment circulated a false report that the foregoing was officially inspired and even asserted that it was a, note from Forolgn Minister Dclcasse. Until it was denied the report caused much excitement. In which the Bourse participated. Iater the Foreign Office and M. Rouvier positively denied the official character of the pub lication, saying that no communication had been made to the paper directly or in directly, by any member of the govern ment Further, the reassuring state ment was made that M. Rouvier's visit to Prince von Radolin had favorably in fluenced the Moroccan question. President Loubefs dinner to King Ed ward at the Elysee Palace Sunday prom ises to be another notable demonstration of Anglo-French cordiality in connection with the Moroccan question. Ambassador Porter will be among the guests, who will include the Ambassadors ofall the pow ers having interests direct or indirect with Morocco. The announcement from Tangier that the British Minister. G. A. Lowther. wilLj head a British mission to Fez is also a source of much satisfaction here, as it is regarded as offsetting the demonstra tive German mission to Fez and as fur ther assuring Anglo-French co-operation in the Moroccan situation. FIVE FISHERMEN RENT T ROYAIBY -WILL- GATHER THERE Invitations to Wedding of Crown Prince of Germany. RI5RL1N. Arjril 27. No. invitations to the wedding of Crown Prince Frederick William to Duchess Cecilia of Mecklen-burg-Schwerin. June 6. will be Issued to European governments, although kottip. nriv&te invitations have already "been sent to Individual Princes and Princesses here and there, such as Prince Albert, of Flanders, and nis wife and Princess Elizabeth, ot $a vnri. nnti Crown Prince Frederick, of Denmark, but other members of the royal families not thus Vfavored may come or delegate Princes to represent them, as they line. Emperor William wanted the Prince of Wales to come. but. as the King of Spain will be in England at that time, the Duke of Connaught will probably come Instead. The municipality of Berlin has de cided to spend about $33,000 In decor ating the streets through which the Crown Prince and his bride will enter the city. Several hundreds of youg women, dressed in white and bearing "bouquets of roses, will meet the latter inside the Brandenburg gate. Annual Revenue of Over $5000 "Will Be. Derived From Flshing-.Ground-Orcad. Fulton, and Humphrey Ignored. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, April 27. Henceforth fisher men desiring to make use o Sand Island, at the mouth of the Columbia River, must pay for tho privilege. The Secretary of War today formally concurred in the opinion recently expressed by Major I.ang fitt, that this island is the property of the United States Government, and that, as such, it should yield a revenue from those who use it for fishing purposes. The Secretary today signed an order directing that hereafter Sand Island shall be divided into five sites, each to be leased yearly under bids, which will be Invited by the local engineer officer at Portland, awards to be made in every instance to the highest bidder. Those Who Secure IiCnses. The Secretary further directs that leases for the onsuing year at once-be made with those flshormon who recently submitted their highest offers to Major Langfitt, namely: Site 2, T. A. O. Stensland 51930 Site 3. Howard Winter 15(0 Site 4. Walter L. Pulllani 600 Site S, Hansen & Olscn .' t0 Two men. W. -L. Pulllam and W. E. Tallant, offered 5100 each for Site 1, this being the maximum offor. They will de cide by lot which shall secure this , con tract. Mend's Protest Ignored. In passing upon the case, the Secretary holds that Sand Island is distinctively the property of the United States, and not of the State of Washington, as had been Implied by a telegram from Governor Mead. Furthermore, he points out that the fact that the fishermen are willing to pay 55120 per -year for the use of this island Indicates its value. Under all the circumstances, the Secretary maintains that the Government must enforce Its right to collect revenue for tho use of this island, and will do so from this time on. Persons not holding leases from the Gov ernment will be prohibited from landing on Sand Island. The Secretary's actlon today Is in the face of direct opposition from many local interests. Governor Mead; of Washing ton, objected to loaslng. on the ground that the fishermen using the island were operating under Washington State per mits. Representative Humphrey also filed a very vigorous protest against tho leas ing plan, and Senator Fulton requested that, if the land be leased, no action be taken until after the close of the present season. FOUR MISSIONARIES IOLTjED Thibetan Savages Dispose of Four Frenchmen and Chinese Official. NEW YORK, April 27. Another version of recent rumors that the Chinese Amban to Thibet had been murdered is cabled by the Herald's correspondent at Pekin, who says: "Four French missionaries have been captured by savage tribes In the vicinity of Batang, which is situated near the frontier of Szechuan and Thibet. "The Chlncse"Ass!stant Amban was murdered while trying to effect their res cue, and It Is reported that the mission aries also have been put to death. The Chinese government refuses passports to foreigners for this part of the country, as it Is not under effective control. "The memorial presented by Wu Ting Fang has been confirmed by an imperial edict abolishing punishment of the fami lies and relatives of criminals. The edict also abolishes torture In the case of criminals and witnesses." PUTS TJXIOX IX JEOPARDY Sweden Condemns Norway's Rejec tion of Compromise. SPECIAL. CABLE. STOCKHOLM, April 27. Public opinion here is almost unanimous In holding that the decision o&Norway's mixed council re jecting the l&ince Regent's conciliatory project leaves virtually no hope that the Swedish-Norwegian quarrel can be adjust ed on the basis of maintenance of the union. It is considered that Norway's de termination to assert its independence In a manner puts effective political co-operation out of. the question. Sweden believes that Norway is making a mistake that may end in jeopardizing the peninsula and disturbing European pontics, nut cnensnes no inougnc oi at tempting to shape things by force.

ONLY ASK FOR EQUAL RATES Townsend Replies to Spencer on Railroad Rebates. DETROIT, Mich., April 27. Congress man Charles E. Townsend, of Jackson, Mich., author of the Townsend-Esch rail road bill, spoke last night before a meet ing of tho Michigan Manufacturers' Asso ciation. Mr. Townsend took up tho speech delivered by President Spencer, of the Southern Railroad, at ' Pittsburg, April 7. "We do not ask wholesale reduction of rates," said Mr. Townsend. "We want the Commission to havo power. to decide what is a Just rate when- the rates have been challenged. Secret rebates mean the loss of millions by the railroads, but the railroads aro most arrant cowards. Traffic men do not know the cost of the transportation of a given article a given distance, and admit they cannot find out. How, then, do they fix the rates by put ting on all the traffic will stand. "Wo are asking nothing more than, as President Roosevelt expressed it In his message, to 'Keep the highways open to all on eaual terms. "President Spencer says he agrees with the President's sentiment, and yet he at tacks the bill which seeks to bring this about. The same arguments are now used against the original interstate com merce bill, and yet Mr. Spencer says the original law is a good one and adequate to deal with all abuses which may arise. FOR COUNCILMAN-AT-LARGE CHANGE MINISTERS AROUND General Transfer to Be Made In South America. WASHINGTON. April 27. A change Is contemplated in the near future in the Ministries of Panama, Venezuela. Colon bia and Chile, with the purpose ot reliev ing the tension which now exists at the capitals of eome of these countries.

Still Holds Out for Philippine Duty. WASHINGTON, April 27. The Secretary of War has written a letterin reply, to a claim against, uie taovernmenr. of the United States for duty collected 'at the port of Manila between April U. 1S33. and October 25, 1901. the claim being based on the recent decision of the Supreme Court of the United States In the case of War ner, Barnes & Co., and Peabody & Co., vs. the united States, in which he saya: "The Government is not disposed to con cede the Justice of tne claims, and nurr pose's" to file a petition for rehearing in thexase to whlcn you refer, and to-pre sent many good reasons, with the hope that they will convince the courts of the W3L H. BARRY. William H. Barry, of 66 East Twenty-ninth street, le one of the strongest Re publican candidates for Councilman-at-Large In the field. His candidacy Is at the urgent solicitation ot some of the most prominent and substantial business men of Portland, and he has the Indorsement of two of the Republican club of the city, ilr. Barry has been a resident of Portland for the past 1G years and i3 especially well known In fraternal societies and printing circle?, being at present connected with the firm of Bushong & Co. His condensed platform read: "Advocate of common-sense administration of city affair and civic Improvement." When questioned further as to his position, Mr. Barry -said: "What do you really mean by a 'closed' town or an 'open town? If you mean that Portland should be more 'open than It Js at present, I say no. If you mean that it should be more of a clo3Cd" town, than It now Is. I answer no. From what I hear from the business men of Portland and a great majority of the people generally, no change Is dtdlred they aro satis fled with prevailing conditions for this Exposition year, at any rate. However, there Ln room for great Improvement along other lines. Corporations and contrac tors should not be permitted to tear up Injjjoved streets at will not without an adequate guarantee to the city for the proper repair of the same; there should be greater publicity In the awarding of city contracts: no bidder should be permitted to withdraw his certified check, after bids are opened, thereby permitting collusion and compromise.

Under renewed liquidation, the price of May wheat broke -Hi cents a bushel. The market closed last night at 314 cents, opened today at SS to W cents, and sold down to S7 cents. The market was extremely nervous, andafter Tcboundlng to S3 cents, dropped again to SS cents. The slump was due to a number of causes. A. severe decine at Liverpool and weakness In thtf Minneapolis market formed a factor in the situation, but per haps the most powerful Influence was a rumor that a bltr line of May wheat was being held on small margins and was like- ly to be thrown over at any moment. The volume of trading during the, session was enormous. P. A. Valentine, of Armour & Co.. supported the market openly at times, but general sentiment in the pit seemed to be that he was a large seller under cover. At $6 the price reached the lowest point of the day. which was about 35 cents under the highest mark reached during the recent bull campaign, and nearly 20 cents under the price where the heavy seulng of the Gates holdings began a week ago. A rally to S3 soon occurred. During the remainder of the session the market for the May option was compara tively steady. The close was quite firm. July was off at S3, and May 3U at SS. The market on corn rallied on covering by shorts. Final quotations on July wera up U to at to CHIEF WITNESS MISSING Pueblo Election Frauds Struggle to -Avoid Conviction. PUEBLO, Colo., April 27.

FLOODS EST OF ROCKIES Storm Brings High Water, hut Im proves Range. DENVER. April 27. The warm weather of the past two days has melted the snow in the mountains, and all rivers on tho eastern slope of the Rockies arc very high. Some damage Is resulting in places not heretofore reported, and conditions In Southern Colorado are still threatening. Prominent sheepmen from Northern New Mexico, who arrived at Albuquerque today, say that reports of losses to sheep men as a consequence of the recent storm are greatly exaggerated. Some lambs perished, they say, but on the whole sheep in the section referred to were never in better condition. The benefit to the range brought by the moisture will greatly ex ceed any losses In livestock, they declare, In Colorado, reports Indicate that the damage to the livestock industry was considerable.
