Smith will be asked to rccopslder his resir nation at the meeting of trustee of the University of Pennsylvania this afternoon, It Is considered certain by his friends be will decllno to do so. The trustees will meet tn tha en gineering building nt the University and tho problem of the provost will be the chief matter to be considered. In finding n man to succeed Doctor Smith they will be subjected to ores sure both from the faculty and the alumni. At the recent convention of the alumni In Wilmington, the gTacInaf.8 favored the transformation of the Uni versity Into n strictly private: lastlto ii.. in , cur nff from state aid and maintained entirely by subscriptions nnd (f men fnlMrtn fees. Such a college would be mncb smaller than the present Institution. The en rollment would bo reduced, and this would mak necessary tho establishment of a City college to take care of the men desirlnf a nigner education, wno could not afford the couraea at the University. . Such n plan, It is pointed out, would call for a provost who would be n hustling business man and yet Of the requisite echolary attainments. He would face the necessity, the very first thing, of raising an endowment fuud largo enough to make the University self-supporting. ..... Upon tho other hand, the faculty takes the aland that the University is a broad-gauged democratic Institution of learning, where the poorest man should have the same educational ad vantages as tho son of wealthy parents. It Is ''inherently ft public Institution," say the faculty, and should be con ducted along the same llnea as hereto fore. If Provost Smith withdraws, candi dates will be discussed at today's meet ing of trustees, It Is said, but no choice la egpected to be made for several months.
