THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1896. MRS, HEARST PROMOTES HIGHER EDUCATION l She Proposes to Expend $300,000 on Two Build- ings at Berkeley. Sustains the Entire Cost of the International Competition of Architects, MAY TULTIMATELY GIiVE A MILLION DOLLARS. Contracts for Affiliated Colleges Ad- justed—The State May Borrow University Funds and Pay Interest. RS " Berkeley is to be the site of the ideal -university of the future—the shrine for the great apostles of higher education. Mrs. Pheebe A. Hearst has given such .. assuranceof financial aid that Governor ‘Budd is convinced that her contributions to the cause may ultimately reach $1,000,000. Regent Reinstein entertains the same view, and is confident that money in sight from other sources will in= crease the gifts to $4,000,000. Plans of architecture for the great niversity of the future will now be se- cured without delay. Yesterday . the regents listened with delight to the read- ing of a letter from Mrs. Hearst, in which she sought the privilege of sustaining the entire cost of procuring plans unaer the international competition. Incidentally she mentioned the other v to the Governor her purpose to give 000 to construct two builaings—one a memorial. The Governor remarked that this took his breath away, as she men- tioped it as a small amount in the be- ginning of her placs. The annexed correspondence explains her position and to some extent fore- shadows her generous intentions: Pavace HoteL, October 22, 1896. 5. Reinstein—DEAR SIR: Referring tion I had last week with your- ssor William Carey Jones,’I de- o say that I am deeply impressed with n now before the Board of Re- K| ne upon & comprehensive and n for the buildings and grounds ity of California on the site of , and heartily approve of the idea. and I have desired to give some suit- 1 which shall testify to Mr. ud interest in this State,and fully considered the matter best memorial would be one id promote the higher education of And 1 must confess that the ab- sence of a suitable plan for the university s has seemed an_obstacle in the way g out some ideas which we have s0 imbued with the importance to versity and to the State of having such & plan that Ishould be glad to 8id in its com- lete and speedy realization, I may also say t1sm the more anxious for this, as I have contemplation the erection on the uni- grounds of two buildings, one of them be the memorial referred to. would the suggest that I be per- 1 have only one wish in this matter—that the plans adopted shouid be worthy of the at university whose material home they to provide for; that they should har- monize with and even enhance the bea the site whereon this home is to be built, ould redound to the giory of the Btate w e culture aud civilization are to be nursed and developed at its university. Asthe full execution of these plans will probably require a long period of time, and e of constant and essiduous attention, I should like to suggest that this trust be re- posed in a special committee which will repre- sent the several interests involved. 1 would name as such trustees, his excel- James H. Budd, representing the Stcte, or William Carey Jones, representing the university, and yourself, representing the Board of Regents. I have the less hesitancy in suggesting these names, as these gentlemen are all graduates of the University of Califor- would, Iam sure, be giad to perform this labor in gratitude to their alms mater. Of course the ratification of a finai plan would rest with the Board of Regents. I believe that the release of Mr. B. R. May- beck (who has been identified with the idea of plen from its inception), from his duties of iustruction at the university, and his presence in the Esstern States aud Europe woula greatly facilitate a proper understand- ing of our design among architects. I would, therefore, further suggest that he be given a leave of absence for ome or two years, and 1 offer to provide for him a reasonabie compen- sation. Yours very sincerely, PHEOBE A. HEARST. Governor Budd has accepted the trust mentioned in Mrs. Hearst’s letter. Tha following letter of acknowledgment from the Governor in bebalf of the people of the State was read to the board: 180, October 23, 1896. E —DEAR MADAM: Your 3 day touching an architectural plan for the Unive ty of California has been submitted to me, and I beg to say that I shail be happy to accept the trust therein reposed. Your conception of the purposes of the Uni- ity of Caiifornia as a great State institution on the loftiest and broedest plane wherein the State confers the priceless benefits of the higher education, is as noble as it is true. Such was the great purpose contemplated in the acts of Congress and of the Legisiature of this State founding this university—a purpose whose scope and grandeur have been as thoroughly appreciated by you as your action will spread and enforce its appreciation by rs. Such o plan as you contemplate will inure o the lasiing glory and advantage of the Siate and the State’s university and to the infinite benefit of the people of the State, : In the name of the State of California, and on behalf of the people of the State, 1 tender you their heartiest thanks and assure you of their sincere and lasting graitude. I sm, dear madum, yours very sincerely, JaMES H. Bupp. In accepting his appointment as one of \ the trustees Regent J. B. Reinstein ad- dressed the following letter to Mrs. Hearst: 8AN FRANCISCO, Oct. 22, 1896. Mrs. Phebe A. Hearst—DEAR MADAM: I am in receipt of your letter of to-duy expressing your earnest wish for an international archi- tectural competition for a permanent and grand plan of the buildings and grounds of the University oi California at Berkeley, and also your splendid gift to further the obtain- ment of such a plan. Perhaps nothing at this time could be more opportune or important for the State Univer- y than this wise gift and the gracious infiu- ence of its donor, through which we may hope 8000 to obtain & plan wnich shall contemplate upon the superb site of this university build- ings in every way worthy of a great State and its highest institution ot learning. Whatever may be considered the important needs and th ctors of success in this university, itis certain that tney all wiil be subserved im- measuraniy by buildings which shall body forth the power and 1he dignity of a sovereign State, &t the same time that they shall exalt educetion by tho inspiration of glorious archi- tecture, making. patriotism and a lofty regard for the State as certain a result of & course at ;r_xlgs Iumverslly &s & love for what is beautiful Your thought and kindness foreshadow such a plan “as will accomplish this doubie purpose, and in addition will spur the pride and interestof State and individuals to s peed- ;.Y realize that plan in useful, beautiful and harmonions structures, 1 shall take the earliest opportunity to Uring your letter to the attention of the Board ! Regents, and with their permission willac- u.’whh bleasure my share of the great trust .conferred. In the meantime permit me to ex- Press 1o you on behaif of all who cherish the welfare of the University of California a sense of deep and lasting obligation. 1 am, dear madam, yours very sincerely, J. B. REJNSTEIN. On the subject of the future great uni- versity Regent Reinstein grows en- thusiastic. After the reading of the cor- respondence yesterday he said: I desire to say in this connection that it is expected to ask the next Legislature to pay us the ‘interest upon & loan of $500.000. to the State by the Board of Regents for a long term of years, in order that we may nfply that amount to building purposes; and I may say that in my juagment this will be the only money the State of Californta will ever be called upon to contribute toward these build- ings, and I am confident, not only that the sum necessary to erect these buildings will be contributed by. private individuals, but my present experience shows that they will strive with each other for the opportunity. From all that I bave beenable to gather dur- ing the year that this plan has been under discussion, I am justified in stating that if the State of California will borrow from the board end pay the interest on £500,000 to be used for these buildings, and if the plan be such as to make these buildings really worla-famous, which we confidently hove, there will be con- tributed more rapidiy than the sums can be expended more than $4,000,000. These build- ings. it is hoped, will be constructed only of stone and marble, and are to be of such a char- acter as to awaken the pride, not only of the citizens of Caiifornis, but of the United States, and to reflect credit not only upon the State, but on the Nation. President Kellogg moved that a vote of thanks be extended to Mrs. Hearst. Judge Wallace embraced the same sub- ject in the form of a resolution inyiting !firs. Hearst to co-operate with the Board of Regents in carrying out the trust. The resolution directs the president of tne university to express the thanks of the regents for the Governor’s gift. In accordance with the suggesiion em- bodied in the correspondence Professor Maybeck was granted a leave of absence by the use of Folsom granite to $239,000, but expenses amounting to $3000 have ac- cumulated, so the archifect is to get his pay from the remaining $8000. Dr. Beverly Cole and the faculty were released from all obligation to pay the fees of the architect. The architect at first dissented, as the agreement did not fully orotect him. A long discussion ensued, in which Mr. Kroft, the architect, désired some assur- aace that he would be paid provided the cost of constraction exceed«P the amount of $239,000. Governor Budd insisted that no agree- ment should be made except in writing. Mr. Kroft said: ‘‘We presented our waiver 10 avoid a reduction. We rely on the fair dealing of the board to pay us. The committee was free to accept any other bids. We bave s:nce been misrepre- sented.” | J Governor Budd—No one has cast any reflections on your integrity, Mr. Kroft, We do not believe that you had any de- sign to job the board, bnt I am resolved that we shall have no more. verbal under- standings. Everything must be in writ- ing. You will get just what that agree- ment calls for and no more—the difference between the contract price and $250,000, less expenses already incurred. You are the responsible mar—the one who got the board in this position, when we came near losing a valuable site generously do- nated by the Mayor. The board took your word that the building, according to your plans, would not exceed (your fees in- cluded) $250,000. Clinton Day and other architects said the work could not be done for that money. Itisnotin your mouth to complain of injustice, because you got us into all our trouble. Mr. Kroft—You desired a good building, An ordinary building could be provided for less money. Governor Budd—Did I not point out the defects in your plans? Mr. Kroft—Our plans were as perfect as MRS. PHOEBE HEARST. for one year. will visit the chief educauonal centers of the United States and Europe and make a survey of university architecture. Mrs. Hearst is to pay his salary and meet all the traveling expenses, besides all other expenses incident to the internatiomal competition of architects. Compsting architects will be provided with maps showing the topography of the region of country surrounding Berkeley, so that they may form an idea of the scheme in architecture in contemplation. 1t is the idea that buildings for centuries shall be on the lines now to be laid down by the architect whose plans shail be ac- cepted. Incidentally Mr. Reinstein men- tions the possible outlay of $50,000,000 within the next half century. To the assembled regents Governor Budd gave an outline of what he proposed in one respect to recommend to the next session of the Legislature. He said: “I have long been opposed to the principle of taxing the people of the present to build for people of the future. Should we now appropriate $500,000 to construct a build- ing at the university the tax would fall beavily on the people of this State, who are now paying or have just paid vast sums for permanent buildings to accom- modate the State institutions. *It is my idea in this university exten- sion that the State should borrow the money of the university and pay interest thereon. Instead of making & levy to amount sufiicient to pay an interest on thatsum. As the case stands now the university lends its money and takesa mortgage on land—for example, in the Sacramento or San Joaquin valley. The | land therefore pays no taxes to the State, as its value is represented in the univer- sity loan. Another piece of land adjoin- ing on which a loan from a bank has been @btained is taxed. There is no sense in the State lending money to individuals, I am sure that a Joan can be passed authorizing the Goyernor, Treasurer and Secretary to borrow from the university regents a half-million dollars.” Jude Wallace observed that there was nobody the regents could lend money to who could give better security than the State officers. & Regent Rodgers said the subject had been discussed in times past. He was of the opinion that the State would have to issue bonds. He admitted that the finance committee entertained the same views that the Governordid about loaning money to individuals. Incidentally the point was raised that most of the money given to the university was given on the condition that it should not be used for building purposes. The Governor suggested that lending the money to the State would not be using it for building purposes. After further discussion the subject was referred to the joint commiitee on law and finance. This committee will present a report before the Governor prepares bis message to the Legislature. At the session of the board yesterday the regents present were Governor Budd, Pheips, Foote, Denicke, Hellman, Kel- logg, Martin, Slack, Reinstein, Wallace, Miller, Rodgers, Crocker and Chase. Others attending were Secretary Bonte, Attorney Mhoon, the architect, and Dr. Cole.. 5 The first business taken up was the re- port of the joint committee on the matter of the contracts for building the Affiliated Colleges. Judge Wallace said the attor- ney would present the report. Attorney McLean thén read the agree- ment, which was scceptable to the Ray Construction Comvpany and all parties concerned. In consideration of the right to use rough granite from Folsom at 15 cents a yard the Ray Construction Com- pany will do the work for $133,500, al- though the original ‘price was $143,500. When this modified contract is approved by the Governor, Secretary of State and Treasurer the six other contracts will be approved. Then the Attorney-General will approve the execution of the contract. The agreement with the architect pro- vides that his rescission of his waiver for fees shall be accepted and that he shall re- ceive for his work a sum not to exceed the difference in the cost of the buildings ac- cording to the contract ana the sum— $250,000—appropriated. Under the modifi- cation the cost of construction is reduced | vay $500,000 outright we would levy an’ It is understood that heyamy nplans presented—as good as: any pians should be. Regents Rodgers, Wallace, Foote and Martin par.icipated in the general discus- sion. Mr. Rodgers said: “Now, I hope the architect will be satisfied. The board ap- preciates the architect and recognizes his honor, integrity and straightforward con- duct. 'The question he should consider is whether he is willing to take his pay from what the regents can save of the 250,000.”” Mr. Kroft—It is justice to us that we should have our money. Have we no contract. for work already donet If you want to throw us out perhaps you can. Governor . Budd—You groomed this horse, and if you fed him too many oatsit is your own fault. It was finally agreed that the regents would pay the architects in installments as the work progressed. The document was slightly modified to makeit less harsn for the architect. Then it was accepted. Mr. Rodgers introduced a resoiution au- thorizing the committee on building and grounds to execute the contracts as mod- inied. At the request of Regent Martin and the unanimous consent of the board Re- gent Denicke was added to the building committee. Notice was given that the committee meeting to wind up the business would be held ut Regent Reinstein’s ottice, M onday at1:30 . M. Governor Budd spoke of the neglect of regents in attending sessionsof the board. He announced that he would exercise his right under the law to appoint a successor to any regent who shouid be absent for three months without lcave. Of course ab- sence on account of sickness would not count against the regent. DEATH IN THE WAVES Despondency Causes Captain William Anderson to Take His Own . Life. The body of William Anderson was found floating in the bay yesterday morn- ing. About two months ago Anderson returned here and took up his quarters at the Montgomery Hotel on Second street. The deceased had been low-spirited for some time past and made the most careful preparations for his suicide. Several days ago he wrote to W. 8. Arnheim, 8 Steuart street, that he was tired of life, and woula end it all. Friday night he left the Mont- gomery Hotel and proceeded directly to the wharf, jumping into the bay. Around the neck was a handkerchief filled with rocks, Captain Auderson was well known along the water front, but has been out of work for some time. Brooding over this is s_n_;‘?)used to have been the cause of the suicide. The letter to Arn- heim reads as follows: & Be 50 kind as to return all letters that come for me to care of A, E. Janson, 223 East Thirty-fourth strect, New York. I will jum ovubc;ml-‘d from Roaen(cldl's idock tomight, T cannot live auy ionger. It is bette die. Thank you tor your kindness, et WILLIAM ANDERSON.

Y STERN CENSURE FOR THE RAILROAD A Jury Uses Strong Lan- guage Against the Corporation. ‘An Inquest Over the Body of Young Galvary Killed by a Mission Car, DIFFERENT IDEAS OF SPEED. Many Witnesses Contend That the Car Was Exceeding Twelve Miles an Hour. For severity and earnestness the verdict returned yesterday by the Coroner’s jury impaneled to inquire into the death of Eddie Galvary, killed by a Mission-street car on October 20, is almost without a'l parallel. While it was shown that the sad accident was largely due to the care- lessnuess of the deceased, the railroad was practicaily charged with his murder. On the night of October 20 voung Gal- vary boarded an ont-going Mission car, and when a few yards from the Four- teenth-street crossing jumped off the side nearest the sidewalk. He then attempt- ed to cross the parallel track and was run down by an eastbound car. The unfor- tunate youth was crushed and ground into an almost shapeless mass, though his natural vigor sustained life for a brief period after the accident. At the inquest yesterday nearly a dozen witnesses were examined, and few of them told the same story. Some affirmed that the car was running at a high rate of speed, while others affirmed that the momentum could not have exceeded four or five miles an hour, 3 The testimony of the principal witnesses is told below. James T. Manton—I was on the Twenty- second-street car when I noticed a boy oing across the street and remarked to & riend, “That boy will be run over.’ I saw the car jump and I knew that he was under it. I did not pariicularly notice the speed of the car, though I shodid jud-e it to have been about twelve miles an hour. James Doyle, who was with Manton at the time, told practically the same story. James Gallert was sitting on the front of ap outbond car when he saw a boy jump in front of the other car. That was all he knew, except that he thought the car was running beyvond the average rate of speed. William 8. Kirk, who was on the car that killed the boy, said: *I heard some- body yell and then, lcoking over, saw the boy's feet as the car passed over him. The car at the time was running very slow.” J. M. Leady, motorman—I saw the boy jump off the other car when I was onl three or four feet away. My car struc him and I stopped as quickly as possible. ‘We were not running over three or four miles an hour at the time. J. C. Brandoline said he did not see the accident, but was satisfied the car was not going over five miies an hour. Probably the most important witness examined was George Harcourt, the companion.of young Galvary on the iil-fated rice. He said: ‘*Galvary wanted us to steal a ride, but 1 protested vigorously at first. Finally we boarded the car, Galvary riding on the bumper and swinging himself partially under the car. Just beyond Fourteenth street I missed my friend and looked around just in time to see the other car run over him. I have no idea how fast the car was poine.” The other witnesses examined testified substantially to the facts as above re- corded. Some saw the boy running toward the track, and others just as the car struck him. Asto the speed of the car the opinions ranged from five to fif- teen miles. The jury retired, and at the end of fifteen minutes returned the fol- lowing verdict: That deceased met ‘his death through gross negligence on part of the Market-street Railroad by not having proper and sufficient guards or fenders on cars of said corporation, and by running said cars at too high rate cf speed.

PLACER MEN WORSTED They Are Very Decisively Beaten by the Alameda Cricket Eleven. . The Placer County cricketers, who are visiting this City for the second time, were yesterday pitted against the Alame- da Club at Alameda. In spite of the very inclement weather there was a fair attend- ance throughont the day. ‘Winning the toss, Captain Hogue of the home team elected to bat. He and Teddy Hogue led off in great shape and put up a century before separating. ~The 72 of Hood’s was the batting feature of the match. equaled, perbaps, by Ward Jr., who earried his bat for 61. Bird, too, reached double figures, and when, at 3 P. M., the inning was called nine wickets had fallen for 232. Of this total the visitors were only able to get within 165 runs. Turner and Marsh- Browne made the best showing, but the bowling and fielding of the Alamedas, aided by their knowledge of the ground, kept the runs down, al<o the wickeis. The bowling of Inruss for Placer County and a smart catch of Papa Ward's, at point, for the visitors were the main features in the field. The scores: ALAMEDA CRICKET CLUB. R. B. Hoguc ¢. Colman b.
