INCREASE OF 81, 4,64O.
Indian Appropriation for Next Year
Compared with This.

Compared with Thts.
WASHINGTON, Aug. IA comparative
statement of appropriations and expenses
of the Bureau of Indian Affairs has been
compiled by Commissioner Browning. 1t
shows that the total amount covered by
the Indian appropriation bill for the fiscal
year of 1894 was S7.SS4,24o. and for 1895 So
33S, $50. The difference in amounts for des-
ignated objects for the two years is as fol-
lows, the first figures being for 1894:
Current and contingent expenses, slS5,0O0
and $780, 100; Indian treaty obligations, So
l7O,O73 and s., ,96O l57; miscellaneous supports
and gratuities, $s9O.125 and s669. .lS4 inciden-
tai expenses, S12l,5OO and $4,000; miscela-
neous expenses, S9i554O and sSOS. IA; sup
port of schools, 81 2iS, 4S2 and $2O56.e95; trust
funds, principal, $SO99l none for 1880, in
terest, $50. $3.50 and SIS, 800: payment for lands.
$4O6, 1856 and 81. 467, ,697 Total for 1894, S6,SS4
2iO; for 1895, $9,5SS, $50; excess over 1894. al
454640.
Although the object of the Indian appro-
priation act is to make appropriations for
current and contingent expenses OF the In
dian Bureau and fulfill treaty stipula-
tions with various tribes, Congress has in
recent years attached agreements with the
various tribes and ratified them in this
bill, which was formerly done by separate
acts Certain objects are also appropriated
for every year under the head of "miscel-
laneous' which are not properly considered
part of the current expenses of the ser
vice. OF the total appropriation, $4S.S97
was for the removal of the eastern Cher
okee payment for Cherokee Outlet, pur-
chase of bonds belonging TO the Dela-
wares payments TO Tonkawas and Paw
nees for lands, and of Sisseton and Wah-
peton scouts, leaving N,396,2H for current
expenses
payments to the YankJons, Yakamas,
Coeur d'Alene, Siletz and Nez Perces for
lands and payment of damages to settlers
on the Crow, Creek and Winnehago reser
vation, aggregating $25S6,8l6. The amount
left for current expenses for the present
fiscal year is So. .752.O64 a reduction of $6i4.-
$50 in favor of 1895. For every purpose ex-
cept for payment for lands considerably
the total appropriation is $179, ,693 less than
the estimates made by the office.
AItgeld Calls for Free Sugar.
SPRINGFIELD, H., Aug. 12.-Governor
Altgeld tonight wired Hon. William
Springer House of Representatives, Wash
ington, as follows:
Secure free sugar if possible. The whole
American people are interested in this.
Free bituminous coal could only benefit
New England and the seaport towns and
The entire country west of New York
cares nothing about it, for our soft coal is
now sold at starvation prices for the miner.
AS free coal will only benefit q small Sec
ton it should not stand In the way of a
measure for the relief of the whole coun-
try, and it is vital that some bill be passed
at once"
