Carnegie Gift Attacked by a Methodist Bishop
Aftania Georgia June 1 Charats that the recently announced gift by Andrew Carnegie of 1,000,000 to Vanderbilt University at Nashville is not a donation but a shrewd move to gain control of part of the university’s property. Bishop W. A. Candler of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, calls the offer impudent and says it aims to influence litigation over denominational control and to thwart the university’s medical department. The dispute centers on church ownership, court decisions, and a pending Tennessee Supreme Court review.

Death Penalty Fixed by Jury for Henwood in Trial
Neavet June 18 The jury in the second trial of Harold F Henwood for murder fixed the death penalty after a verdict of first degree murder. The defendants, Copeland Sylvester Von Phat and James W Atkinson were killed during a riverfront barroom shooting on May 2 1911. Henwood was convicted of second degree murder in the first trial and sentenced to life imprisonment. The Colorado supreme court reversed the decision and the case was sent back for a new trial. Henwood testified in both trials confessing the killing and attributing the feud to letters written to Von Phul by Mrs. John W Springer wife of a Denver businessman. In the second trial Springer testified for Henwood.
