ETHNOLOGY—APPROPRIATIONS. 
July 9, 1890—Senate. 
In considering the sundry civil bill for 1891: 
Mr. O. H. Puarr. [should like to ask the chairman of the committee a 
question, even at the risk of betraying my own ignorance of something 
that I ought to know about. I see on page 32 there is an appropri- 
ation of $40,000 ‘‘for continuing ethnological researches among the- 
American Indians, under the direction of the Smithsonian Institution.” 
Are all those ethnological studies and researches pursued under the 
direction of the Smithsonian Institution and paid for out of this 
appropriation, or has the Geological Survey an independent duty to 
perform in that respect? Iask because the contributions to ethnology 
are prepared by Major Powell, who is the Director of the Geological 
Survey, and I never understood exactly how the matter was arranged. 
Mr. W. B. Auuison. I understand that this is the appropriation under 
which Major Powell discharges whatever duty he performs in connec- 
tion with the ethnological work. There is no other appropriation, I 
understand, for that work.
