DUKE MIOES FOR EDUCATION SIX MILLION DOLLARS TO BE MADE AVAILABLE AT ONCE. Charlotte, N. C. —James B. Duke, multi-million industrial developer and capitalist, announced in Charlotte the creating of a trust fund totaling $40,- 000,000 for educational and charitable purposes, including the establishment and maintenance of a vast educational institution in North Carolina to be known as Duke university. A fund of $6,000,000 will be made im mediately available for the purpose of acquiring lands and equipping thereon baildings suitable and adequate- for an institution of learning that in time will rival Yale or Harvard in prestige and unlversiay educational facilities. The trust will be administered by 15 trustees, who will constitute a self-perpetuating body. This announcement, throbbing with the joy of a man who is ready to dedi- cate to the welfare of his state the fortune he has spent a lifetime in gathering together, was made by Mr. Duke at his palatial home in Myers Park. Among those present were some of the men who will become trustees of the estate, Mrs. Duke, has attorneys and newspaper men.- The building of this great univer sity—this contribution to the educa tional advancement of North Carolina and the south —Is the result of a boy hood dream of the man who'has accu mulated millioqs In a private fortune, and who has probably done more for the Industrial upbuilding of bis state than any other man. All his life James B. Duke has "wanted to see North Carolina rise to Ihe heights enjoyed by her sister •tales in the east and north because of such institutions as Yale and Har vard or Michigan and Illinois or Co lumbia. All his life he has longed for the day when North Carolina would ■march proudly by In a solid phalonx with sister states, unafraid and un- ashamed, because she could boast of educational Institutions second to none in the nation. And not only will he build a univer sity. but he has arranged the principal of the trust so that It will pay the estate 20 per cent of its Income until such additions have aggregated an other $40,000,000. And from the 80 per cent of the income of the $40,000,000, an additions which shall hereafter be added to the principal, he will give great sums to Davidson college, Fur man university, the Johnson C. Smith university; will build Methodist Epis copal churches. Dullness Rules Cotton Market. New Orleans.—The past week in cotton was marked by usual pullness and further characterised by the nar rowest fluctuations In prices that have been experienced in a long time. In Saturday's market, for example,* the extreme spread between highs and lows in active months was only eight points and Friday it was only 15 point*, which was established during the first hour of trading. After that fluctuations hardly exceeded five points. The small trading and the narrow price range were attributed to the long Interests having been well eliminated during the declines of the preceding week and the bulk of the short inter est having covered late In that period and early in the week Just closed. As both sides of the account were well liquidated apparently there was no de sire to enter upon fresh commitments until after the government's final crop estimate. Taking the week as a whole the ex- treme range was 70 points as January contracts traded down to 12.85 Tues day after having closed at 23.5S on the previous Saturday. Rallies later In the week cut down the loss until the closing at 18.16 showed a net loss for the week of 39 points. The trade la looking for an estimate between 11.- >OO,OOO and 11.800,000 bales. If that figure la realised or exceeded prices will in all probability ease off but should the estimate prove to be II,• 100,000 bales or under prices are like ly to advance at least temporarily. As government reports are apt to run counter to genera! expectations the feeling of uncertainty existing led to the evening, up of accounts and a tem porary halt In price movements. While all Interest hu centered on what the government Is likely to show in 1U report the heavy movement of ■the crop Into eight and the rapid in crease in the visible anpply of Ameri can cotton haa added to the disinclina tion to operate on the constructive -aide.

Washington.—Despite the annuallly increasing duties loaded on to the United States coast guard through new legislation, it was able in the last fiscal year to establish a record in the work for which it originally was created —the protection of 11 {e and property on the high seas and pre vention of smuggling. The annual report of the guard, made public, discloses that in the 12 months ending last July 1, men from coast guard boats and stations rescu ed 2,462 persons from positions of per il and boarded and examined the pa pers of 46,152 ships, 14,499 more th&n eyer inspected in any one year in his tory. Much of the additional board ing of vessels resulted from the new service of the coast guard as an aid to prohibition enforcement. It has be come necessary,, the report says, to watch all vessels more closly, to make more detailed inspections of their car goes, and to watch them farther out at sea since the guard's work has includ ed prohibition enforcement. But offi cials of the guard, the report explains, have not found it necessary yet to neglect any of their traditional duties in order to give effective support to the prohibition laws. The reports say satisfactory prog ress has been made in carrying out provisions of legislation granting ad ditional personnel and equipment to the coast guard to be used in check ing rum-running. It explains that time has been required to construct and place in service the new craft author ised by law but many of them have been commissioned and manned since the current fiscal year began and the work is being pressed to completion. Much attention was given by cutter crews in the last year to oceanic con ditions, and considerable data regard ed as highly important to navigation has been gathered by cruising vessels. The international Ice patrol, managed and operated hy the coast guard for 13 nations, was able to supply much of this data, which showed that dur ing the year there was an unusual ab sence of fog and ice in tßfc northern steamer lanes. As a result of exper ience gained last year and in years previously, the coast guard believes it will be able hereafter If not handi capped by limited funds to give pro tection to trans-Atlantic shipping . While the report contains no rec ommendations, It calls attention to the need for replacement of the veteran cutter, Bear, which last summer made her fiftieth voyage into the Behring and North Pacific waters.

C. BANDITS TRY TO SHOOT WAY OUT; TRREE SLAIN. South Bend, Ind.—Seven persona were shot, three probablr fatally when two holdup men (ailed in an attempt to rob a saloon in the west end of the city, tried to shoot their woy out of town. One of the rob bers, Raymond L.Mogeley, of Boa ton, was captured by police. > One of the robbers was arrested, a highway construction workman, who was in turn shot, felled him with a blow from a sledge hammer, while the other was believed to be surrounded i na field west of South Bend by a possee made up of hun dreds of officers and citizens from the countryside. The wife of the owner of the sa loon looked on in horror aa the shooting started.

Washington.—A net loss of nearly {40,000,000 was sustained by the gov ernment in 1923 in operation of the postal service, it was shown in an ex pert analysis submitted to the senate by Postmaster Oeneral New. More than half of fher~ excess of gross expenditures over receipts waa found to be chargeable against second class mail, embracing newspaper! and magazines. The report, filed in com pliance with a senate resolution and designed for use in connection with the bill proposing general increases in salaries of postal employes, found that only first-class mail and postal savings were operated at a profit. With friends of the salary-increase bill, vetoed at the last session of Con gress by President Coolidge, express ing confidence that it would be re enacted, the cost study submitted was seen as necessitating a revision of pos tal rates sufficient to bring in SIOO,- 000,000 additional revenue. As now drawn, the bill provides an average in crease of S3OO a year to each of the 200,000 employes. Negotiations already are under way, to fix a date for a vote on the veto, Senator Curtis, Kansas, republican leader, said in reply to a question from Senator Dill, democrat, Washington. In the cloakrooms predictions were heard that, the poll would not be de layed much beyond the presept week. Although Senator Edge, republican. New Jersey, a-uthor of the vetoed meas ure, had prepared a new bill contain ing re venue sections, he de clared he had not deckled whether to attempt to obtain Its consideration. Senator Edge and other proponents of the salary Increases were said to hold that It would be impossible, legally, to combine the two purpose* in one statute without running afoul of the constitutional inhibition against the senate Inaugurating revenue-raising legislation. It was their contention that the pending salary bill should be enacted at once and a separate bill drawn in the house to effect the rate provision. Estimates of the extent of the rate changes to be proposed were not attempted by any of the interested senators but they Indicated that the recommendations made by Postmaster General New last April probably would be followed to a degree. Five Burned to Death. Detroit. —Five persons were burned to death and a number Injured when a Detroit-Cleveland limited interurban train struck a truck loaded with forty barrels of turpentine, at Wyandotte, a suburb, here.

Arrival of the Wynadotte fire department iaved the rear car. Several of those less seriously injured, who were removed from the wreckage by firemen, said they would have perished soon from the turpentine fumes had they not been rescued. Held Office M Year*.

Couple Found Dead in Auto Rock Hill, S. C. —The final chapter of what is said to have been a romance between Mrs. Frank Simpson, 25, and J. T.

After an inquest the coroner's jury returned a verdict to the effect that the woman came to her death as the result of a'gunshot wound inflicted by J. T. Cornwell, and that he fired the second shot into his own brain. While it was shown plainly at the Inquest that the dead persons were responsible for the tragedy, no effort was made to uncover reasons for the unfortu nate occurrence. Coolidge Likes Plebeian Train Washington.—Having set a prece dent in manner of travel, President and Mrs. Coolidge returned to Wash* ington after their visit to the Chicago Livestock exposition.

Railroad officials, however, sighed with relief when the train dreiw into the anion stationT Transportation of a presidential party always places the greatest responsibility on the railroad oytr which the executive chooses to travel, and the trainmen who took Mr. Coolldge to and from Chicago frankly asserted that his use of regular equip ment hardly lessened this responsi bility.
