The missionaries in charge of the work on these reservations repott substantial progress In the condition of the Indian people. They are build Ing more eomforlah;e homes, cultivate their lands tHMt«»r, take more Interest in educational matters, are more helpful to each other, evince an increased spirit of self sacrifice aud Christian work. Rev. M. K Trlpi*>. who has heen engaged hi the work for nineteen years, report* that fie has , ,ni, hesitation in saving that the Indians can he as readily and thoroughly christianized and civilized as any people among whom the i Christian church hns planted missions."

The agent reports the white* living hi the vi­cinity of the reservation* generally agree that there is steady Improvement In the condition of the Indians residing thereon. Nevertheless re servatlon morals urn not what they should'be The Indians as a rule are not a vicious class, but Intemperance and immorality prevail to a large extent The Indians have a natural projiensfty for ' t h e water" and It In difficult to enforce the law prohibiting the sale of liipior to them.

The Court of Claims and Supreme Court of the l-nlted Htates having decided In favor of the New York Indians in the matter of the Kansas laud claim. Congress has appropriated $1,967,066 to he distributer! among the Indians entitled to share in such distribution.

The agent nays a large majority of the Indians are opposed to citizenship The principal rea sons for this opposition .are these; The unedu­cated and non progressive feel that they are un~ propared for the duties and responsibilities of citizenship, and they fear to make the change from the present to a new system. Many of the more intelligent and enterprising people have arviulrrnl considerable reHi estate, and they fear a division of lands In severalty and citizenship wotilti<iopr.ve them of the results of their enter prise and Industry.

The United Htate holds in trust 1288,060 tor the Seneeas and $86,950 for the Tonawanda band. The Interest on these funds, amounting to $11,~ 009.50 and $4,849 50, respectively la distributed by the United State agent.
