The Annual Report Of Secretary
Hitchcock Submitted.
VIDE RANGE 0F SUBJECTS TREATED
LEGAL Institutions Under His Con-
troll Referred To.
RECOMMENDATIONS MADE

The Secretary of the Interior III his an
nual report devotes much attention to the
Indian question and outlines what his
future policy is to be- This policy contem-
plates requiring the working by Indian al
lottees able to do so of a fair portion OF
lands allotted them and the contributing
by their industry to their own support OF
all not entirely disqualified by actual dis
ability, physically or otherwise; the dis
continuance of the rations to those known
and determined to be able to support them
selves and the extension to the latter OF
every possible aid for encouragement the
Inauguration of industrial training In all
the schools where not. now established, SO
that such Indians of both sexes may be
taught the trades or industries adapted to
their circumstances.
Concerning the work of the Dawes COM
mission Secretary Hitchcock says: ~
The Seminoles are the only nation that
has had it's rolls approved and its LANDS
have not yet been entirely allotted. Inc
enrolment of the four remaining tribes mas
not been completed, and the time cannot oe
fixed with any degree of certainty When
such enrolment will be finished. While
the lands of the tribes have been cassl-
fed. vet the value of each tract has not
been given, and tnis must be done before
the lands can be allotted to the members
upon basis of value.
The requirement that the lands must be
allotted upon the basis of value, in my
judgment is entirely impracticable, for the
reason that the determination of said value
must necessarily be from the indications
of the surface without any knowledge Of or
regard for the mineral which may be hid
den beneath the surface. 1t is we'll
known fact that the Indians themselves
prefer because of the association and other
influences lands of their own selection,
even lnough the same shall be of unequal
value.
There is a vast amount of labor yet to
be performed by the commission in investt-
eating the claims of applicants for enroll
ment and in equahzing the value of the
lands already classified, all of which will
require great deal of work in the field
and at the offices of the commission, and
this cannot possibly be accomplished with
in a reasonable time by the present men,
lay only increases the temptation which
the continuation of the existing state of af-
fairs will offer to the unscrupulous specu-
lator who fully realizes the opportunities
of the prize thus offered
therefore, In order to accomplish the
real purpose Of the act creating the Dawes
commission, namely, the complete enroll
ment of the legal members of said tribe and
the proper distribution Of their assets I
urgently recommend that said commission
be increased by four members; that a modi-
fcation be made of the law which requires
the lands to be distributed upon a basis
of equaifzed valuation, and that a definite
period be fixed for the completion of all
the work pertaining to the allotment of
lands, etc, among the Indians in the terri

safe being by single coal stoves, called
egg stoves, for each room. These stoves
are easily thrown down, when the red-het

frequently occur An appropriation Of s., ,125
by Congress is asked to introduce a new
system of heating in these large buildings.
The university expended during the year
about 50 500 for repairs of buildings. of
which 5000 was appropriated by Congress-
The appropriation of 500 for the law and
general library was expended under the di-
rection of the several faculties, one-half of
said sum for each library. Nothing was
expended from the fund granted by Con-
gress. directly or indirectly, for the theo-
logical department.
The growth of the university has been so
rapid and the increase in the number of
teachers so necessary that there has been
deficiency in the salary account every
year, and, an additional appropriation of
s. eco is asked to meet this demand to be
apportioned among the pedagogical, pre-
paratory and English departments

The Secretary approves the charitable
work of the Washington Hospital for
Foundlings and recommends that Congress
appropriate $4,000 in order that the work
may be properly continued.

Ithaca, N. Y., Nov S.-President Schurman of Cornell university will submit his ninth annual report to-mor- row to the trustees of their meeting here. The report says that in addition to about one hundred in special lines of instruction, the number of students in all departments for 1899-190O was g. 766 and for 1900-1901 was 2,9S0.
 Dr. Schurman treats each department of the university in turn, speaking at length of the great need of additional fund for each.
 The report places the total property of the university Exclusive of the remnant of western lands) at $10,S7O,- 20928. The receipts from tuition fees was $172,015, an increase of nearly ESQ., 900 over those of the preceding year.

NEW FOOTB1LL PLAY.
QueIsors 10 Spring One That Will Revo-
 lutiontze the Game.

EuttOntze the Game.
 Philadelphia, Nov. 8.-The first of the annual games among the "big four'' football elevens will be played to-mor- row, when the University of Pennsyl- vania and Harvard teams will meet on Franklin field. The Cambridge players arrived here to-day and their coaches announce them to be in almost perfect physical condition for the contest. The Quakers are also reported as being in fine fettle.
 Harvard will go into the game se- renely confident of victory, while, on the other hand, Pennsylvania expects to be defeated. The home players hope to keep down the Harvard score, how overland some of the mole enthusiastic Pennsylvania followers hope that the crimson players will be fought to standstill. Coach George Woodruff, of the red and blue team, has announced to the football world that his eleven will spring a new style of play in the attack which will "revolutionize foot ball and cause great furore in the football world" In this announcement Pennsylvanians place their hope. It remains to be seen whether it will be guards back" The Harvard contin- gent is not saying much tonight in re- gard to the promised new play, because they say they have no definite knowl- edge as to what it Is. But they express the greatest confidence as to the ulti- mate outcome of the game.

Kwang su Proposes to 1naugurnte Re-
 vivnl of Military Spirit.

Pekin, Nov. S.-Emperor Kwang Stu, report says, is asserting himself and leading the imperial cortege on horse back. Native papers declare that he proposes to inaugurate a revival of the military spirit, assuming the honorary position of commander-in-ch chief and wearing uniform. They also assert that he will compel the nobles to follow his example, to take militery positions and to study military science.
 A private lettr from European now in Tai Yuen Flu says that two British officers, with party of Indian soldiers, encountered the imperial procession, were suspected of unfriendly motives and were detained as prisoners by the emperor's bodyguard for few days. Apparently this was an exploring par ty, commanded by Major Manifold and Captain Hunter, which has been oper- ating in that region for some time.
 The flag of the United States legation was the only one half-masted in Pekin to-day The mourners and the family of Lf Hung Chang will burn paper of ferings tomorrow, in accordance with custom, for the use of his spirit in the other world. The street Is hung with mourning emblems. All the attendants at the yamen are richly attired and many of them gaudily dressed. To- day musicians beat drums about the house.
 Ii Hung Chang's estate will remain intact for the use of his eldest son, who will provide for the other members of the family.
 Yuan Shi Kai, successor in the gov- ernment of the province of Shan Tung, Is an unknown man who has been hold ing an unimportant though lucrative position as grain commissioner in one of the inland towns of the province. He will be watched with the deepest soici +ude. IS the peace of China will largely depend upon his course.
 Wang Wen Shao, who is seventyfour wears of age and deaf, was never rated ne a statesman or diplomatist. His appointment is probably only tempo rary.
 Photographic communication with Prince Ching was obtained to-day. He is hastening to meet the court. After consultation he will return with Wang Wen Shao, who is accompanying the i court which is now on five days jour- ney from Kai Fong Flu.

ESCAPED CONNECTS KILLED
THREE FIGHT TO DEATH RATHER
 THAN SURR BINDER.
One Other Wounded nnd One Gives Up Before He is Shot-Five of the Twenty six Men Who Escaped from Loaven- cred fin a Barn-Running Fight Fol- lows.
lows.

Leavenworth, Kan, Nov S.-Five of
 the twenty-six convlcts who escaped from the stockade of the new federal prison here yesterday afternoon have
 been accounted for. Three of the five
 are dead. The dead are: James Hoff-
 man, aged twenty, white; J. J. Poffen-
 holn, aged twenty-five, white, soldier
 convict; John Green. aged twenty-one,
 white
 The fourth, Willard Drake, white,
 aged nineteen. is wounded and recap
 tured, and the fifth, Fred Moore, aged
 sixteen, negro, is re-captured unhurt.
 The five men were discovered in the
 barn of Fay Weishaar near Norton vile, Kan, about 3 o'clock this after noon. Weishaar went into the barn and was ordered out at the point of guns. He rushed to Nortonville and gathered posse of men who, with re- volvers, shot guns and few Winches- ters, hastened to the scene. The con victs saw the men coming and rushed from the barn. They had two shotguns and revolvers. The posse pursued them and running duel resulted. The convicts were at disadvantage and their shots had no effect, while at every volley from the posse one of the con- victs fell. After two of them had fall en two of the others gave themselves up, one being wounded, the other un- hurt The fifth was fully 200 yards away when a man with Winchester drew bead on him and fired. He ev- idently had been hit, but tried to go on. A volley was then fired at him and he fell dead. None of the citizens was hurt.
 Reports came from numerous points to-day of the arrest of men supposed to be fugitive convicts, but none of the suspects has been identified. The old est of the fugitives is aged twenty eight.
 Quinn Fort, who was killed yesterday, was nineteen years old One of the convicts still at large Is a military pris- oner, and the remainder were serving terms for robbery or assault. One is an Indian and two are negroes. Nearly all came from Oklahoma and Indian territory, and they are supposed to be making for that country. They are hardy men, used to fire arms and horses. Some have obtained both but others are on foot and defenseless. Warden Mcclaughrey says he will cap- ture every one of the men. In the dis tricts around the city every road and river crossing that the fugitives might be expected to use Is guarded by armed men, the farmers having turned out to earn the s60 reward that will be paid for the return of each convict. Those of the men who are armed are likely to be shot on sight.
 Two more convicts, Donald Norie and R. l.. Davenport, were captured to-day In field two miles north of Jarbale. They were hiding in a ravine and be- ing unarmed, they surrendered without resistance.

SHIPPING'S GROWTH
Tonnage Has Now Obtained the Tor m CT
 Tonnage of 1861.

Washington, Nov. S.-The report of Mir. Chamberlain, the United States commissioner of navigation, says that the past fiscal year has been the third successive year of notable prosperity and growth in American shipping, ex- ceeding the two previous years. The extent and nature of work under way or projected in shipyards promises an even greater growth for the current fls- cal year.
 American tonnage has now obtained the former tonnage of 1861. The figures of 1901, compared with 1861, show an increase in coasting trade vessels of from 2,7O4, ,544 tons to 4,5S2 6S3 tons (two- thirds of this increase being on the Great Lakes), a decrease in foreign trade vessels from 2,496,9S4 tons to S79,- 595 tons and a decrease in whaling and fishing vessels from 3S8,35 tons to 61,940 tons
