Seeks to Deprive the President ot Au- thority to Issue Bonds. Washington, D. C., Feb 22— Senator Mills to day introduced an amendment to the sundry civil bill which contains more possibilities for | mischief than any piece of legislation which has been seriously proposed.

Lin- coln institute, the colored college at the capital, will be given about $20,000 more than actually required. These are some of the appropria tians that have been decided upon and will be recommended by the house committee: For the state uni versity, for two years, $72,000; Lin coln institution, $64,000; different normal schools, from $27,000 to ¥37,- 000 each. The amount asked for by the curators was $262,000. This amount would have allowed the uni- veraity to equip its different scien tific departments, as well as pay necessary expenses. Curator Eads claims that the income of the uni versity from all sources, including endowment fund, tuition and other tees, is $158,000. The expenditures are $208,000 or $50,000 in excess of the income. As the appropriation for maintenance of the university and school of mines is but $25,000, this would mean that the two schools H. L.
