( ither wlse Mrs. Mary Scott Harrison, widow of former President Harrison, and ex Presldent Theodore Koosevelt would have become the only other beneficiaries under the terms of the endowment, for Mrs. Cleveland, by her approaching marrlaRe to Prof. Thomas Jex Preston of Wells College, would have put herself beyond Its scope. It Is believed that the trustees antici pate the time when the national Gov trnment will make some provision for there who have once served as Chief Executives, and their present action Is intended to brldgd over the Interval. It was decided also at yesterday's meetlim that a statement of the alms of the Carnegie Corporation should bo published. According to this statement th following paragraph from "Gospel of Wcalih," printed In the Xnrth Amer (ran Heiteie In 1S8S1, gives Mr. Carne gie's chart o' life's voyago as then re vealed by him: "Men mar die without Incurring; the pltv of their fellows, still sharers In irreat business enterprises from which their capital cannot be or has not been withdrawn, and which is left chiefly at Wh for public uses, yet tho day is not fur distant when the man who dies tuvini? behind lilm millions of avail able v r..th, which was freo for him to admlnk'er during life, will pass away 'unwep , unhonorod and unsung,' no matter to what uso he leaves the dross vnlch he cannot take with him.

CASE MAY " BLOW VV " . ..... DC-CUCC'S MOtiOH tO DlSmiSS a Surprise -"Bribe Not Described." HUIjING on point to-day Witness Meantime, Tells Bow City Funds Were Involved Bis NnniR an Alias. Joseph G. Itntiln, self-convlrted banker, repressing with an effort the, ent up emotions of two years, told the. ury In the Supreme Court yesterday, pent J how Charles H. Hyde, City Chamber- lain, had forced him to make a loan of Northern Hank funds to the Carnegie! Trust Company In August, 1010. j fitting In the private law .ittlce of the man tfien In control of the clt's monev, at S In the etenlng, with WUIIntn J. Cummins on one side of him and Joseph lllll, Ulll, ,,l. fll Ilelchmann on the oth ,. .i,i, 1 ir. Ulth HJile faeinir him. he had hren . . , i ,,. ti... n,- . ternatlve of bolstering up the slinky ; ,r, , .,,,, inonno forewi, or of losing every penny of the profitable-city deposits. It waa the first step In the case of District Attorney Whitman to convict Hyde of the charge of demanding and receiving a brllie as n public officer, and standing alone as It did It seemed to have an effect on the Jury of bankers, brokers and engineers who succeeded the gunmen's Jury in the court of Jus tice Goff. Kobln gave this direct testimony yes terday afternoon In less than thirty seven minutes, hut before the day was over he had bpgun to shed a little more light on the subject and on himself under the cross-examination of Max D. Steuer. assisted by John B. Stanchfleld and Mr. Hyde himself. He had admitted he had been told that the Carnegie Trust Com pany was tottering on tho eve of a bank examination 'and at that moment the Northern Bank had deposits (St 1250,000 In the trust company which had bor rowed In addition between !12n,O00 and $130,000,' from me-rmnic UppTdxl.uUfPI" J3K0.000, which would have been tied up by the failure of the trust company. The uuestlon whether this fact mlghf not have Influenced him aa well as the notable list of guarantors on the note wag lost In a storm of objections made by the District Attorney Motion May Knit Case. All this while, In fact throughout the day, every step taken by the prosecu tion had as Its shadow the possibility that a motion made by Mr Stanchfleld the first thing In the morning might be repeated and end the ca.se right there. It was and still Is In abeyance, with Mr. Whitman n-id Frank Moss under promlsolon to answer It to-day or later, nnd the Justice agreeable that It may b brought up on motion at any time. The motion Is to dismiss the Indict ment and end all proceedings against Hyde because of a vital omission. It Is alleged. In the Indictment. The mon Is charged with having received a brlbi or a gratuity or a reward not author bed by law as. a public ofllcer. That fact Lr net forth In th four rntintK of " - tho indictment, but, according to Mr. Stanchfleld. It is nownere set "Tin what that bribe, gratuity or reward was. In Mr. Stanohtleld's language at thn opening of tho day's session "the de - fendant, Hyde, docs not know of what specific act he stands accused; he la nowhere Informed what he must de fend himself against. Tho loan of the Northern Bank to the Carneglo Trust Is narrated and the alleged participation of Hyde. In It Is asserted, but It Is no where shown In tho Indictment that Hyde, either as City Chamberlain or at an Individual, benefited. Kxcept for thi statement ttvit he did benefit, which Is a conclusion, It Is nr shown how" When Mr. Stnnrhfleld had finished Mr. Whitman allowed Mr Moss to get up and say that ns the question raised was unexpected the prosecutor was not ready to reply; he nskod for time, nnd this was granted, Mr, Whitman did not apjtear fn the afternoon and was reported to be looking up the law. "I will deny this motion." said the Justice, "but for the present only, and I give leave to renew It later," When Mr. Stanchfleld had finished and Jinn taken his seat the defendant wore a broad smile, and some of his friends out In the court room were similarly Joyous. Alleices Drnefll to lly dr. Mr. Whitman's opening addrnss took about nn hour and If he had not said how Hyde benefited In tho Indictment he waa entirely clear in Ills opening speech. He not only detailed the story of tho forced loan of Ilobln, but he as rerted that he would be able to tihovv that by reason of these favors men like Hyde's secretary, Joseph V, Smith, had heon nhlo to obtain 113,500 on notes from the Carneglo company on barn notes, thn money of which went to Hydo himself, and that all of Hyde's enterprises were similarly benefited, In order to establish that It was n system Mr. Whitman declared ho would try to prove that tlio Northern Bink Ilobln experience was duplicated In other financial Institutions nnd for large amounts. Everything had been dons by virtue of the power of city money de posited. Those whu loaned to tho Hyilt friends received the city deposits.

Hie Powers tire renolvcd to uphold 1 urkev s (letnntiil for the retention other territory to beolaimed. Never Bince the beginning of the war Ii.ih tho outlook been less gloomy than to-dny. Never have tho official watch men in their conning towers felt morn hopeful of working things out to such a satisfactory issue as will leave Europe in pence nnd nil the interested parties model ntcly discontented. Count von Berchtold, the Austrian Foreign Minister, who will accompany his .Majesty to Vienna to-morrow, can . 1. I.... , . . . . on 11,1; numrwarti journey contemplate the future without any of the preoccu Ifiticns which the situation inspired a ;o. that tho danger of a now infinitesimal ia font gaining ground in the chancelleries of Europe. Servia is aware that the scope of her patriotic ambition is cir cumscribed by the lettitirnat-itertii of (he great Powers. She is also alive to the fnot that Austria's policy toward her is actuated not, as alleged, by enmity but by friendship based on common interests, united efforts nnd mtittm! confidence. Htiisia understands that Austria has made appreciable sacrifices to rcad jt!Ht her policy to tho now order of tilings in southeastern Europo und Austria re.idily recognizes tho praise worthy efforts made by tho Czar's advisers to prevent n breach of inter national peace, Italy and l-'rancc, who entertained thu idea that they would sutler com mercially by tho customs union which they fancied Austria was prepariug to impose on Servia. nro beginning to realize that compulsion forms no part of Count von Berchtold's methods, nor is an obligatory commercial union included among his political ends. In like manner Httlgaria lias come to 1 the conclusion that film had better losa no time in laying tho foundation for tho friendship of Rumania, who has de served so well of nil the Balkan States Pourparlers to this effect have, begun, nnd M. DunofT, the special Bulgarian representative, is expected shortly in Duchatvst, where he will carry on con versations. I understand that the Bulgarian Gov ernment has grown chary in regard to Bulgarian territory now that tho cam paign is over and tho fruits of victory tiro being harvested, but the strip of territory which would satisfy lltinmnia is so insignificant ami tho value of tho friendship which it would purchase is so weighty that ono can hardly con ceive thnt Bulgaria will wait for tho prc.'sure of public opinion to movo her to discharge, what in the last analy sis differs little from a debt of honor.
