Criticism of alleged dissemination toward
Indians at the expense OF colored citizens
is made part of the annual report OF
Howard University, yesterday forwarded
to the Secretary of the Interior by Pres
ident Thirkield. He pointed out that for
the $4,000 Indians in the United States
the government last year spent 81, 400, 900,
while for the 100000 colored persons
only 100000 was appropriated.
Yet colored teachers in the common
and high schools" the report continues,
ARE expected to meet the requirements
of the State authorities. To practice
medicine the colored man is required to
pass the same examination before State
boards as the white physician. So also
in other professions and pursuits provi-
our colored citizens, else 1t will mean
the blind leading the blind and both fall
ing into the ditch at great cost to society
and the State
should Teach Farming.
DIR. Thirkield adds that the great need
of the colored men to-day is more practI-
cal study in matters OF agriculture.
Nearly s. per cent of the population of
10, 10000 he says, are engaged in agri-
cultural pursuits. Yet there is not a sin
gle school for colored persons in the
United States where agriculture Is a spe-
cialty.
The report shows that 1872 students at
tended the Howard University during last
year, coming from thirty-seven States
and eleven foreign countries.

BUSINESS SHOWS
SOME IMPROVEMENT

Business in mercantile lines recent
ly has shown perceptible improve
ment, though not on anything like
sufficient scale to cause a strain on
banking reserves. The iron and steel
industry, in particular. is much bet
ter because of the reduction that has
taken place in the prices quoted for
the finished product. Thus railroads
have entered the market as free puy-
ers of equipment, and explain their ac-
ton on the ground that al the present
low prices these purchases of equip
ment cannot fail to prove a good In
vestment. especially when under cur
rent conditions money can be obtained
to complete the purchases on such ia .
vorable terms as are now current.
Vice President King of the Jones g.
Laughlin Company. one of the larges;
Independent steel concerns in the couE-
try, in a recent interview, gives the
results of his actual cotact with large
buyers of steel products, and his con-
elusion is in brief that the turn has
come in iron and STEEL Other manu-
facturers confirm this view.
So far as the railroad situation is
concerned there have been evidences
of much greater courage among the
arrangements since the Commerce
Court has ONE forward so freely and
demonstrated in the well-known in
termountain cases that the railroads
have a tribunal. certainly not un-
friendly. to which they may appeal;
from the rulings of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, which they
have heretofore regarded so complete
| ly antagonistic to their interests.
| This renewed courage is evident In
their programs for construction ana
| Improvement work during the next
year, which will require large amounts
/ of structural material. as well as
eqipment from manufacturers. 1t is
| felt that the question of advanced
rates TO correspond to the advanced
cost of operation is no longer a for
lorn hope and some railroad interests
are disposed again to bring up the
question of advancing rates and
promptly appeal to the Comerce Court
lif, as expected. the Interstate Com
merce Commission again refuses II
