president and trustee of the University
of Chicago:
tonds Are Set Alde.
D.r Sirs: I have this day caused to
be set aside for the University of Chi
cago from the funds of the general edu
ratt n board, which was subject to my
disposition, income-bearing securities of
the present market value of approxl
mat. tr Re..', the same to be dellr

the university from the date of uch de
livery only.
"A llt of these securities to appended
herewith. In a separate letter of even
late try wlties reaarding the Investment
nd uses of the fund are more spccWcally

Others May Make? Gifts.
It l far better that the university be
ur ported and enlarged by the gifts of
many than by those of a single donor.
This 1 have recoanlsed from the be
ginning, and. accordingly, have sought
to asstst you In enlisting the Interest
and securing the contributions of many
others at times by making my own
gifts conditional on the gifts of others,
and at times by aiding you by means
of unconditional glfta to make the uni
versity aa widely useful, worthy and
ttrartlvr as possible.
o I Appreciated.
"Most heartily do I recognise and re
joice in the generous response of cltl
tens of Chicago and the West. Their
contributions to the resource of the
university have been. I believe, more
than K.ooe.eiJO. It might, perhaps, he
difficult to find a parallel to the gen
rroelty so large and so widely distrib
uted as this, exercised In behalf of an
Institution so recently founded.
"I desire to express my appreciation
also of the extraordinary wisdom and
fidelity which you. as president and
trustees, have shown in conducting the
affairs of the university. In the mul
titude of students so quickly gathered.
In the high character of the Institution.
In the variety and extent of original
research. In the valuable contributions
to human knowledge. In the uplifting
Influence of the university as a whole
npoa education throughout the West,
my highest hopes have been far ex
ceeded. Girt la Final One.
"It 1 those considerations, with
others, that move me to sum up la a
single and final gift, distributing Its
payment oier a period of many years
to come, such further contributions as
I have proposed to make to the nai
ve rlty.
"The sura I now give Is Intended to
make proviaton. with such gifts aa may
reasoaably be expected from others,
for such needed buildings, equipment
and endowment as the departments thus
far established will need. This gift
completes the task which I have set
before myself. The founding and sup
port of new departments for the devrl
enment of the vsrted and alluring field
of applied science, including wtedloiae.

purposes by other friends of the uni

WILL PROVIDES ALIMONY
SO. w00 SKT ASIDE FOR WIDOW
OF MAJOR HANSEN.
Codicil Places Sum at Disposal of
. Tbeoeophlst Relatives Entire
Estate Valued at $330,000.
' ATLANTA, Ga.. Dec. SO. The will of
Major John Hansen, president of the
Central of Georgia Railroad, was filed
for probate today. The value of the
estate Is estimated at MS0.000.
The sum of tiO.000 Is set aside for
nee of both principal and Interest on
alimony to Mrs. Cora I Hansen, the
testator's widow, from whom Jie had
been Separated. At her death the re
mainder reverts to the estate.
Except for the provisions of Mrs.
Hansen, ttie estate is to be divided
among Major Hansen's children and
grandchildren.
A codicil refers to the membership In
the Theosophtttt cult In California of
Mrs. Fannie Hansen White and her chil
dren and the four children of Walter T.
Hanson. Being Informed that Theoao
phtsts can have no Individual property,
the testator allows Mrs. White and her
children free use of the Income of their
share of the estate, but the full prin
cipal Is not to be paid until after Mrs.
White's death and after the children
have renounced Theosnphy or until the
children reach the age of 35.
The same Drovlslon applies to Walter
T. Hansen's children.

..nr.Mntitiir the hourly employes
on the Panama Canal, waa at the White
House today and asked President Taft
to grant still further concessions to the
bollermaken and other mechanics on the
isthmus.
Following hi recent visit to the sone,
the President denied a request for a
general Increase In pay but extended
from two to four weeks the amount of
leave with pay granted the hourly em
ployes. It Is doubt f .il If the President
will make ny further concessions.
Members of the Iain-national Boiler
makers' Union will bo permitted by that
body to go to the Isthmus of Panama
for work on the Canal, notwithstanding
tho actn of 1W toKermakera in resign
ing positions there.
The resignation of the boilermakers at
not regarded by the' Canal Commission
In any sense a a strike aa the men gave
the usual five days notice, i ne tom
mlivlon Is glad the matter will not de
velop Into a labor problem as It is de
sired to employ American cltlaena as tar
a possible. The return of the Union. It
is said, will obviate any necessity for
seeking boilermakers outside the United
States.
TOMATO PASTE IS. SEIZED
Carload of New Jersey Oysters Also
Under Pure Food Law Ban.
SAX FRANCISCO. Dec 19. Acting on
an order of the United States District
Court here, the United States Marshal
for the Northern District of California
seised a large ahlpment of tomato paste
which arrived here today from New
York. According to the complaint Med
by the Federal Pure Food Inspectors
with the court, the paste contains filthy
decomposed vegetable substances. The
shipment was made by I'letro Konco
ronl of New York, and consigned to A.
Outrlanl Brothers of this olty.
The authorities are now prepared to
else a carload of oysters, due to ar
rive here day after tomorrow from Ho
bokrn. New Jersey. Extraordinary pre
cautions will be taken by the officials
to prevent the shippers from dumping
the cargo Into the bay. According to a
telegram received today from Secretary
of Agriculture Wilson, the shipment
consists of oysters which were taken
from polluted waters.
Senator Aldrk-h's Hand Treated.
NSW YORK, Dec. Senator Al
drtch today had a slight operation) on
Ms left hand to relieve a tension of the
cords between the Index and middle fin
gers. The trouble, which Is not re
garded seriously, was caused by aa In
Jury he received last Fall, when he was
struck by a streetcar while walking In
Madison avenue.
withdrawing from the board of trus-
tees my personal representatives whose
reslgnailona I inclose. I am acting on
an early and permanent conviction' that
this institution, being the property of
the people, should be controlled, con
ducted and supported by the people.
In whose generous effort for Its up
building I have been permitted simply
to co-operste: and I could wish to con
secrate anew to the great cause of
education the funds which 1 have given
if that were possible; to present the
Institution a second time. Insofar aa I
have aided In founding It. to the people
of Chicago and the West: and express
my hope that. un?er their management
and with their generous support, the
university nisy be sn Increasing bless
ing to them, to their children and to
futu- generations. Very truly yours.
-JOHN D. ROCKEFEU-ER."
President Kjerson Speaks.
President Ryerson. of the board of
trustees, after making announcement of
the gift, said:
"It would be difficult to describe
adequately the emotions aroused In the
minds of the members of the board of
trustees by the communication I have
Just read.
There Is. first of all. a feeling of the
deepest gratitude for this wonderful
gift. It assures to the university for
many years to come a continuous de
velopment which cannot fall to Inspire
confidence and receive further Impetus
through the aid of other benefsctors.
Sentiment Referred To.
In withdrawing from an active Inter
est In the affairs of the university the
founder has left no cause for disap
pointment In the material side, but
there are sentimental considerations
which cannot be overlooked, and In
measuring the benefits which the uni
versity has derived from his Interest In
Its welfare there must be taOn Into
accisunt not only the great sum of his
benefactions and the wisdom with
which they were bestowed, but also the
constant encouragement derived from
his personal Interest and sympathy.
"Mingled, however, with the regret
that Mr. Rockefeller should deem It
wise to sever the ties that have united
the founder to the university, there Is
recognition of the force of the reasons
given for this action, and there la the
conviction that in thus anticipating all
he had In mind to do for the university
and In withdrawing his representatives
from the board of trustees, Mr. Rocke
feller Is moving solely by a desire to
promote she welfare of the Institution
he founded"."'
The board of trustees adopted a reso
lution expressing appreciation of Mr.
Rockefeller's generosity and ordered a
copy spread upon the records, one of
which would be engrossed and con
veyed to Mr. Rockefeller by a special
committee.

resolution. In reference to the state of
readiness of the country for defense In
the event of war, with particular refer
ence o Its preparedness to repel Inva
sion If attempted (a) on the Atlantic
or Gulf coasts or (b) on the Pacific
Coast.
"In my opinion this country cannot, so
far as its land forces are concerned,
be considered In a state of readiness
for defense or to repel Invasion, if
attempted on our coasts by any first
class power having the shipping, trans
ports, and the navy to protect the transit
of her armed forces over the sea.
Enemy's Conduct Forecast.
"An enemy operating on the offensive
aRtlnnt our Atlantic and Uulf or our Pa
cific coasts would have a wide choice of
objectives and points of landing. He
would manifestly keep us Ignorant as to
the point of attack selected, and would
attempt to make his lodgment on the
coast by attacking the coast defenses
from tbe front, by landing out of raiyre
of tho coast defense guns and attack
ing the fortifications from tbe rear or
by a combination of both methods.
"The liberty of choosing the point of
attack which belongs to the offensive
and the necessity of providing an ade
quate defense available for all points
liable to attack. Involves our having,
first, a sufficient force of cavalry, field
artillery and Infantry to prevent his
landing out of range of the seacoast
armament and capturing the defenses
from the rear, and. second, a sufficient
manning detail of coast artillery troops,
with ample supplies for operating the
cop st defenses against a frontal attack.
A conservative estimate of the forces
w.ilch could be transported In a single
expedition over the Atlantic Ocean to
our coast by a flrst-clnss Power would
be 100.0m) men. and the time required
would be from 10 days to 18 days.
"Such an expeditionary force might be
followed by another of like strength In
from M to 44 days.
Atlantic Not Well Guarded.
"The minimum number of trained mo
bile troops estimated ss necessary to
be placed In readiness In the first line
at strategic points in the New England,
Middle Atlantic and Gulf states, to pre
vent a lodgment by the first expedition
ary force on the AUantlc or Uulf coast
is 5u.0uo. .
These troops, about w.Jo or wnicn
would belong to the staff, should be In
proper proportion of infantry, cavalry,
field artillery, etc fully equipped for
the field and organised Into the high
est tactical units, as well aa In position
ready for field operations within 10 or
days after military operations start.
"To meet this requirement we prob
ably would have available In all parts
of the United States a total force of
114.M0 mobile troops 31500 regulars and
S2.000 organised militia."
The Secretary says that the length of
the Atlantic and Gulf coasts, exclusive
of Indentations, Is about -"' miles long.
The defenses already established there
require for their effective operation
against attack from the sea a total
force of .40O coast artillery troops, 1.
MO regular coast artillery and 44 mili
tia coast artillery. This force, it Is
eoold he, assembled in the de
fenses In from to ) days.
i. h the Atlantic and
Gulf coasts lack KS.5w men In the
mobile troops and 1S,14 or coast aruuer,

armament should be augmented where
necessary and equtpped with appliances
and provided with an ample supply of
ammunition.
It Is apparent." says the report,
"after considering this paper, which Is
based upon a most careful analysis of j
the existing situation, that we are al
most wholly unprepared for war; that,
outside of a reserve of small arms and
smalls arms ammunition, we have not
equipment adequate to meet the needs
of the present segular army and organ
ised mllltla at war strength, and. conse
quently, nothing to equip other troops:
that the things which we most need are
those which will take longest to sup
ply, especially field artillery guns and
ammunition."
The report declares the figures to be
conservative. It say that "we are al
most wholly nnprepared for war. The
remedy Is declared to be "self-evident.
Preparations for enrollment, equipment
and supply must be made. Supplies,

tioned. The Secretary concludes by advising
the creation of a permanent counsel of
National defense, 'to be composed of
members of the legislative and execu
tive branches of the Government upon
whom Joint responsibility In this mat
ter rests, to determine a general policy
ot National defense and to recommend
to the Congress and to the President
from time to time such measures re
lating to the National defense as it
shall deem necessary and expedient."

The measure was one to allow washer

The Socialist City Attorney had de

way and did so despite the objections
of Berger.
The Council adopted 17 resolutions
asking for the passage by the Legisla

requests want the authorities to erect
