Ithaca n. Y, Oct % (SpeciaD.-Director Robert
H Thurston, OF Sibley College of Mechanical En-
cheering denies rumor that the faculty has been
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of increasing the en-
gineering course from four to five years. He said
TO a Tribune correspondent yesterday: There is
nothing in the report that about TO increase
the engineering course from four 10 five years As
a matter of fact, trying TO take off year
and make it three year course. We handle
five hundred students in Sibey shops very nicely
but six hundred and fifty entirely too many.
We have been sttfTening up entrance require
nlents TO keep out all but the most promising The
course in mechanical engineering could be made a
three year course by requiring modern languages
physics and higher mathematics for entrance
These branches taught in the department
of the university and there is real need of hav-
Ing them in the course. The plan of giving a
masters degree for fifth years work will be fol-
lowed except that it will be for fourth years
work If the course is reduced"

TRADE WITH PORTO RICO.
EXPORTS TO THIS COUNTRY TREBLED AND
IMPORTS QUADRUPLED IN THE LAST
FIVE MONTHS.

washington Oct Is (speciaD.-Imports into the
United States from Porto Rico have trebled and
exports 10 that island from the United States have
cuadruped in the five months since the enactment
OF the new Porto Rican Tariff act as compared
with those OF the corresponding months OF 1895 and
1897 when Porto Rico was under the Spanish nag.
The Porto Rican Tariff act went into effect on May
! 1900 The imports from the island in the five
months whose record the Treasury Bureau OF
Statistics has Just completed amount TO S,3l6,334.
against E.159 rs in the corresponding months OF
1887 or practically three times much in the FIVE
months Of 1900 as IN the corresponding five months
OF 1897 The exports the island in the five months
Of 1900 are & s7S09 against s17744 in the CORE
spending months Of 1896 and s76 So2 in the CORE
spending months Of 1897. practically four times
as much IN 1900 in 1896 1897.
These figures are especially interesting because
Of the fact that Ct supposed when the act vent
into effect that the commerce of the first year
would be very small by reason Of the hurricane
Of last year, which proved damaging TO the
chief Industries that it was thought the island
would IN the present year have little 10 sell, and
consequently little with which to buy. Yet the
figures given here show that II has sent TO the
United States in the five months from May ]. 1900,
20 October 1900. twice much in value in the
corresponding months Of 1889 and three times as
much as in the same months Of 1897, and that it
has bought from the United States than twice
as much as in the corresponding months of 1898
and practically four times much in the CORE
spending months Of 1896 or 1897.
The table which follows shows the imports from
and exports 10 Porto Rico in it's commerce with
the United States during May, June. July. August
and September OF 1896 1887, 1893 and 1900 respec-
lively. and the total for each period. and thus
makes possible comparison by months and by
the entire period both with 1899 when the island
under the American flag but subject TO the
general customs laws OF the United States and with
1886 and 1887. when it Spanish territory. II
viii be seen that every month since the enactment
Of The new law shows marked increase over
1892 and still greater increase is compared with
1887 and 1896, while the total imports from the
Island In the five months Of 1900 show an increase
OF g. per cent 1893 and Up per cent over 1897
and the exports 20 the island show an increase Of
lo4 per cent over 1893 and 265 per cent 1897.
