The activity of the Council and of the meetings of the divisions was reflected in the most varied aspects of academic life and therefore can be traced in all sections of this report; here, however, the following should be noted:

By resolution of the Mechanical Division, the chair of mechanical technology in the section of factory machinery was declared vacant, and, as a result of the competition announced for it, the Institute lecturer N. V. Gutovsky, who had entered the competition, was elected by the division and the Council.

The same division declared vacant the chair of mechanical technology in the section of flour-milling and hoisting machinery.

The competition for the chair of geology, announced in the preceding year, was concluded by the election, both in the Mining Division and in the Council, of both candidates who had entered it, the lecturers P. P.

Gudkov and M. A. Usov. By resolution of the Department and the Council, a petition was submitted to the Ministry for the confirmation of both candidates, between whom the teaching of all sections of pure and applied geology and of the entire course of paleontology was to be distributed. The confirmation of M. A. Usov took place as early as the end of the reporting year, while the confirmation of P. P. Gudkov was postponed until January of the following year, 1914.

In the civil-engineering department, the competition for the chair of construction art and architecture in the section of construction works did not lead to the expected result, since the candidate elected by the Council to fill this chair as acting extraordinary professor did not receive confirmation from the Ministry.

By the meeting of the same construction department, the same chair of construction art and architecture was declared vacant, but in the section of internal waterways; the competition announced to fill it has not yet been completed.

In view of the unsuccessful competition to fill the chair of pure chemistry in the section of organic chemistry, the meeting of the chemical department and the Council petitioned for the transfer to the opened vacancy of Professor Ya. I. Mikhailenko, to whom analytical chemistry had been assigned. This petition was granted by the Ministry.

At the petition of the Council of the Institute, the Ministry of Public Education authorized scholarly trips for the following members of the teaching staff.

a) Abroad:

1, to Senior Laboratory Assistant V. M. Khrushchov—for one year, from October 1, 1913, to October 1, 1914, for improvement in scientific respects and for familiarization with the organization of teaching abroad, as well as for the study of factory practice and inspection of outstanding structures in the electrotechnical specialty.

2, to Mining Engineer N. S. Pennu—for one year, from October 1, 1913, to October 1, 1914, for familiarization, in his specialty, with the organization of the higher technical school and with technical practice in mining-industrial regions.

Activities of the Library

The library was open for use by professors and instructors from 9 to 3 in the afternoon and from 6 to 8 in the evening daily, and for Messrs.

students from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and from 6 to 8 p.m.; moreover, in the reading room the students made use of publications which are not permitted to be issued to them for home use. During vacation time, issues to professors and instructors were made daily, except Saturdays, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.; to students, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. twice a week.

During the year, 3,237 titles of various publications were issued to professors and instructors, and 9,894 titles to students. In addition, in response to students’ requests, 8,310 titles were supplied in the reading room. Thus, the total number of fulfilled requests registered in the reporting year was 21,990. These data by months are appended in a separate table. This considerable circulation of the library’s books, together with the current accessions of new publications, absorbed all the time of the library’s working staff. Nevertheless, despite the reduction in the library staff during the reporting year, the library personnel continued the work, begun in 1911 and 1912, of correcting defects in the library record-keeping of previous years. Thus, by the end of the reporting year, the transcription of the temporary inventory lists (from 1908) into a bound inventory catalogue of the new type, with printed columns—whose completion, for reference and auditing purposes, is of very substantial importance—had been completed. With the completion of this work, the maintenance of two parallel inventories, the rough and the fair copy, which had existed in the Institute library since its foundation, is abolished; this will in future considerably reduce the time required for entering newly acquired publications in the inventory. In view of the fact that the so-called rough inventories were kept in a simple office-style book without the printed columns established in 1911, it was found, when transcribing them into the fair-copy inventory of the new type, that the rough copy lacked notes for filling in all the columns, for example, the format of the publication, whether bound or unbound, the shelf mark indicating the place of the publication in the book depository, and in some cases other omissions as well; therefore, the correction of the library’s inventory catalogues cannot be regarded as completed. In addition, work continued on compiling the systematic catalogue of the library: by the end of the reporting year the Russian alphabet had been completed. The cards have been arranged, provisionally, in systematic order according to the decimal international system of subject classification. A catalogue of periodicals in the Russian language has been prepared for printing, and the preparation of a catalogue of publications in foreign languages has been begun.

Teaching Library

As of January 1, 1913, according to the inventory records, the student library contained a total of 760 titles in 3,080 volumes, amounting to 5,460 rubles 90 kopecks. During 1913 there were received, as paid acquisitions, 163 titles in 218 volumes, amounting to 805 rubles 24 kopecks.

Gratis and as gifts:

20 titles in 22 volumes, amounting to 33 rubles 15 kopecks. Thus, the increments of the student section of the library comprise 183 titles in 240 volumes, amounting to 838 rubles 39 kopecks.

As of January 1, 1914, according to the inventory records of the student section of the library, there are listed altogether 943 titles in 3,320 volumes, amounting to 6,299 rubles 29 kopecks. The figures indicated here have already been included in the report on the fundamental library.

To Tomsk Imperial University, for a cast-iron scrap in the amount of 680 poods . . . . 204 rub. — kop.

Total . . . 385 rub. 64 kop.

From the sale of articles made by the mechanical workshops in 1913, 688 rubles 80 kopecks were received as income of the Institute’s special funds.

There remained unsold articles of the mechanical workshops as of January 1, 1914, to the amount of about 130 rubles (see note *).

The sum of 693 rub. 75 kop., “repair and replenishment of inventory,” included 500 rubles paid by E. S. Krupyshevskaya for the two second-hand machines acquired from her in 1913: one universal horizontal-vertical milling machine of the Reinecker works, and the other a universal grinding machine for sharpening all kinds of tools, of the Cincinnati works in America.

The actual over-expenditure of the regular funds of the mechanical workshops in 1913 was caused chiefly by the acquisition of the two above-mentioned machines for replenishing the inventory of the mechanical workshops; moreover, in 1913 cast-iron casting stock was made, in an amount of more than 100 poods, for student work in 1914.

In conclusion it is necessary to note that the funds released annually are insufficient for the full functioning of the mechanical workshops as an instructional auxiliary institution of the Institute throughout the entire academic year; thus, the foundry and model shop of the mechanical workshops, owing to lack of funds, were open in 1913 only from October 15 to the end of the year.

In 1913, in the mechanical workshops, work according to the programs was completed by:

“Workshop I”—67 persons.

“Workshop II”—81 persons.

Note: 16 persons in excess of the indicated number were exempted from locksmith work, as having completed technical educational institutions or having submitted exemption work.

Diploma works were completed:

1. “The influence of the angle of inclination of the cutter on the coefficient of cutting of metals.” Student Yanchukovsky.

2. “The dependence of the transverse diameter and the feed of the latter.” Students Magsky and Pyaskovsky.

* Note: The indicated value of unsold articles as of January 1, 1914, does not include the value of student articles (1 lathe, 1 drilling machine, transmission, etc.), which are in stock to the amount of more than 300 rubles.

Mineralogical Cabinet and Laboratory

Director: Prof. A. V. Lavrsky.

Allocated in 1913:

No.	Item	Amount

Despite the additional allocation from special funds, the cabinet had at its disposal in the reporting year, for instructional purposes, the modest sum of 976 rub. 52 kop., since a considerable part of the cabinet’s funds (417 rub.) went to the payment of the attendant’s salary, uniform allowance, and benefits. In view of this, in replenishing and improving the teaching aids for classes in mineralogy, it was necessary to observe extreme economy in expenditures.

As of January 1, 1913, according to the inventory, the cabinet contained:

No.	Item	Quantity	Amount
1)	Furniture, office supplies, and other items	414 specimens	5231 rub. 97 kop.

3)	Models	1,995 items	2,389 rub. 85 kop.
4)	Tables, geographic maps, etc.	328 items	313 rub. 86 kop.
5)	Minerals in hand specimens	3,901 items	5,809 rub. 84 kop.
6)	Books and brochures	332 items	1,358 rub. 07 kop.
	Total	9,084 items	23,078 rub. 95 kop.

According to the material ledger, for the elapsed year 1913 the expenditure for the maintenance of the cabinet and laboratory is recorded in the amount of 544 rub. 65 kop.

A major acquisition (in terms of the amount of expenditure) in the reporting year was a collection of minerals, chiefly from Ural deposits, consisting of 500 hand specimens, valued at 300 rubles, purchased from A. P. Suvorov. The best and most interesting specimens of the collection, by their deposits, 186 in number, have been entered in the cabinet inventory under No. 665. In addition, in the same reporting year five microscopes of simple construction were entered in the inventory (Nos. 653—657), acquired from R. Fioss in 1912 in the number of 15 for 2,945 marks 50 pfennigs and not yet paid for in the amount of 700 rubles up to the present time, since the allocation of this sum from the Ministry of Public Education has not yet followed.

As a gift to the cabinet during the reporting year there were received:

In the mineral section: from M. N. Sarkisov—a collection of minerals and ores, chiefly zinc and lead-silver, from the “Tetyukhe” mines of the Joint-Stock Mining-Industrial Company Tetyukhe of the Ussuri Mining District of the Primorskaya Region (only the costs of shipping and delivery of this collection were paid); in connection with minerals of the same deposit acquired from other persons (S. N. Golovin and V. A. Chernikov), it proved to be represented comparatively fully: in the entire collection there are now more than 200 hand specimens and samples.

Less significant donations of minerals were received from I. I. Epifanov, A. I. Kusse-Kyuz, A. V. Lavrsky, V. L. Mal’ev, N. N. Pavlov, N. P. Saltykov, R. L. Faerman, N. A. Chistyakov, F. I. Shnelly, and others.

To the book department: from A. V. Emel′yanov—the journals: “Bulletin of the Gold Industry and Mining in General” and “Mining and Gold-Industry News” for the years 1900–1903.

General information on students’ work in 1913 in the mineralogical laboratory and cabinet.

General remarks.

The conduct of practical work with students in the reporting year was made dependent on the relative completeness and preservation of the teaching aids available.

The less expensive practice—crystallographic—continued to predominate over the others, which required considerably greater funds and the availability of more costly aids.

1. Work in the mineralogical laboratory.

A. In the spring half-year of the reporting year the laboratory was opened for work on January 15 and closed on May 1.

The work consisted in the determination of minerals: 1) non-silicates and 2) silicates, with the aid of the blowpipe. Each working student of the mining department was required to determine, with the help and guidance of the instructors, 24 problems in each of the two above-named groups of minerals; students of the chemical department (metallurgical specialty) worked according to a special abbreviated program: they made in all only 24 determinations; in conclusion, all were given two test problems for independent solution.

B. In the autumn half-year of the reporting year, work in the laboratory took place from September 10 to December 21. The work was conducted according to the same program as in the spring half-year.

The following table shows the number of students who worked in the laboratory during the spring and autumn half-years. (See the table on p. 50).

There were no refusals, for lack of places, to those wishing to work in the laboratory. The sharp decrease in the number of those who worked in the laboratory during the autumn half-year of the reporting year is explained by the fact that, beginning with that half-year, the mineralogical laboratory, by a special decree of the mining department, was placed in the schedule after the laboratory of qualitative analysis.

II. Work in the Cabinet.

A. Spring half-year.

In this half-year the cabinet was open for independent work in the various branches of mineralogy from January 2 until the end of the May examinations, daily from 9 o’clock in the morning until 5 o’clock in the afternoon; for independent exercises in geometrical crystallography the cabinet was opened exclusively on Sundays and holidays from 9 o’clock in the morning until 3 o’clock in the afternoon. During their work the students made use of all the aids available in the cabinet.

Systematic practical work, under the direction of the head, was conducted at fixed hours, namely:

a) Work on the study by students of the physical and chiefly optical properties of minerals.

The work took place on Sundays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. with students of the Mining Department, divided into 4 groups of 10 persons each, with each group being allotted 1 hour. For the students’ use there were provided all 20 microscopes in the cabinet, with the necessary accessories and thin sections; and, for the study of physical and morphological properties, specimens of minerals.

b) Work in descriptive mineralogy and in determining minerals with the aid of microscopic observations.

Classes in descriptive mineralogy (non-silicates) proceeded in parallel with the lectures given to the students of the mining division. Two hours per week were devoted to these classes. The students, divided into subgroups, practiced determining mineral species by external characteristics with the aid of Weisbach’s tables and textbooks of descriptive mineralogy; in addition, the minerals were also studied microscopically.

c) Classes in descriptive mineralogy with students of the chemical division.

These classes were conducted for 1 hour per week; they consisted in determining mineral species by external characteristics with the aid of Weisbach’s tables and the mineralogy textbooks of Lebedev and Nechaev.

d) Classes in descriptive mineralogy with students of the civil-engineering division.

Exactly 1 hour per week was allotted for these classes, and they were conducted analogously to the classes with students of the chemical division.

B. Autumn half-year.

In this half-year, students’ independent work in all divisions of mineralogy began on August 19 and continued until December 31, with an interruption from December 21 through 27 inclusive. For classes in the study of the crystalline forms of minerals (Crystallography I), the laboratory was open in the evenings, from 5 to 8 o’clock, five days a week, and on Sundays—from 9 o’clock in the morning to 3 o’clock in the afternoon. In the other divisions of mineralogy, students’ independent work took place daily from 9 o’clock in the morning to 3 o’clock in the afternoon, but in the first half of the semester only those students were admitted to it who were required to complete the minimum in the near term.

As for the systematic practical classes under the supervision of the head, they were conducted at specified hours, namely:

a) Classes with students of the mining division in the study of the crystalline forms of minerals

Eight evening hours per week were devoted to these classes, with the students divided into four groups of 15–17 persons each; each group had 2 weekly hours. The classes consisted in analyzing crystalline forms with the aid of cardboard and glass models and in drawing projections.

b) Classes in general mineralogy with students of the chemical and civil-engineering departments.

Classes in general mineralogy were conducted in parallel with the lectures of the courses and occupied 2 hours per week for the students of each department; they consisted of the analysis of simple crystalline forms using cardboard and glass models, and of the study of the morphological and physical properties of minerals from specimens.

c) Classes with students of the mining department in descriptive mineralogy and in the determination of minerals.

In these classes the students were divided into two groups, which in turn were subdivided into subgroups of 2–3 persons. The classes took place on Sundays from 11 o’clock in the morning to 3 o’clock in the afternoon, 2 hours for each group. Before beginning these classes, special demonstration exercises were conducted on the study of the physical and morphological properties of minerals, with a subsequent verification of the students’ knowledge of these properties by means of a colloquium. The method of conducting these classes that had been practiced in previous years, which required more good material than was available in the cabinet, was somewhat changed: in order to obtain more precise data concerning the mineral species being determined, the students had to measure the interfacial angles with a contact goniometer and to observe, in polarizing instruments, powders and cleavage plates of minerals. Like all classes in the cabinet, except for laboratory work with the blowpipe, these classes were not compulsory, and, in order to avoid an excessive influx of participants, they were admitted only after the special colloquium mentioned above. To compensate the remaining students for the reduction of their practice, demonstration hours were arranged for them, attendance at which was free, and two groups of students, 15 persons in each, examined the collections illustrating the course in descriptive mineralogy, each group for 1 hour per week.

In the following table are grouped the data on the number of students who worked in the cabinet during 1913 and received credits after passing examinations.

In the spring half-year of the reporting year, the diploma work of the mining-department student Ya. V. Kiziriya was completed: “Mineralogical analysis of the heavy concentrates of the placers of the Zeya gold-mining district.”

	Total for the year . . .	51	36	30	26	38	20	201

In conclusion, it should be noted that, for the proper development of the cabinet’s instructional activity, it is necessary to supplement the collections of oriented and other thin sections, to increase considerably the stock of minerals for practical exercises in mineralogy, to augment the museum collection and renew it, i.e., to replace with new specimens those hand specimens that have suffered from demonstration in lectures or from being made available to students for practical exercises, even if under the supervision of the head; to acquire a new crystallographic collection of cardboard models in place of the one that has been provided for students’ use since 1906; this collection has been repaired up to three times with local resources and has become almost completely unusable; finally, the need has become clear to order additional display cabinets for illustrative instructional collections of minerals.

Lavrov, a chemical engineer and stipend-holder left at the Institute.

Physical Laboratory

Head: Prof. B. P. Weinberg.

Since, as before, more than one third (1,728 rubles 88 kopecks) of the regular appropriation of 5,000 rubles was spent on the remuneration of the mechanic and two attendants, and since the overspending remaining as of January 1, 1913, amounting to 746 rubles,\[^1\] (in the accounts, owing to the addition of new accounts, it was expressed as 917 rubles 57 kopecks) had to be reduced by January 1, 1914, to 35 rubles, one can only repeat what was said in the two preceding reports: “the lagging of the laboratory’s inventory behind the tremendous forward development of the experimental technique of constructing physical instruments and of the development of physics itself, and the insufficient equipment of the laboratories for scientific work, became more and more apparent.”

V. Institutions of a Non-Educational Character Serving the Needs of the Institute.

1. Gas Plant.

Manager: Prof. V. N. Jones (until April 1) and laboratory assistant A. P. Shakhno.

In 1913 the gas plant operated continuously, around the clock, except for days in the summer when it was necessary to clean and dismantle the apparatus.

The results of the work were as follows:

Subjected to distillation, gas coal . . . . . . 17108 poods.
Coal expended for firing . . . . . . . . . . 16622 ”
Coke obtained . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9295 ”
” tar . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 662 ”
” gas . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2646212 cu. ft.

The average yield of gas from 1 pood of coal fluctuated by month, 140.8–169.23 cu. ft., depending on the intensity of operation. In summer, with one charge per day or even every two days, the yield was low; under normal operation it became quite satisfactory only after the furnaces with new retorts were put into operation in December. The old retorts, with gaps and large cracks, not only gave a smaller yield of poorer-quality gas, but were also unsafe in operation.

Of the coke obtained, 7299 poods were burned under the boilers, and 1996 poods were sold to various persons and issued upon requisitions:

electric station of the Institute . . . . . . . . . 20
copper metallurgical laboratory . . . . . . . . . 90
Mr. building superintendent . . . . . . . . . . . 50
mechanical workshops . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20

As of January 1, 1914, there was no stock of coke. Tar was sold and issued in the amount of 659 poods; of this, 54 poods went to Liubinsky, who had paid the requisition as early as 1912 (see the report for 1912).

For the needs of the Institute, 16 poods were issued.

As of January 1, 1914, the stock of tar amounted to 153 poods.

The expenses for maintaining the plant were as follows:

Gas coal expended:
17108 poods, at 21 kopecks per pood, totaling 3592 rub. 68 kop.

Sudzhensk coal for firing, 16692
at 12½ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2077 rub. 75 kop.

Total . . — rub. — kop. 5670 rub. 43 kop.

Salary of employees . . . . . . . . 2490 rub. 46 kop.
Current expenses . . . . . . . . 435 rub. 93 kop.
To N. N. Vorozhtsov for management of the gas plant . . . . . . . . 25 rub. — kop.
To Makarov for relaying the furnace and coating the retorts . . . . . . . . 200 rub. — kop.
Delivery of retorts (payment of their cost charged to 1914) . . . . 795 rub. 42 kop.

Total	—	3946 rub. 81 kop.
Grand total	—	9617 rub. 24 kop.

Receipts:

Received for coke, 1996 poods at 28 kop. . . . 558 rub. 88 kop.
Due for the 662 poods of tar obtained at 50 kop. . . . 331 rub. — kop. 889 rub. 88 kop.
Due from the university for 1,123,538 k. f. supplied to it at 30 rub., and 317,994 (for the summer period) at 3 rub. 60 kop. per 1000 k. f. . . . — — 4515 rub. 39 kop.

Total	5405 rub. 27 kop.

Thus, the net expenditure for the year was 4211 rub. 97 kop.

2. Reception Room.

Physician in charge: S. A. Adamov.

In 1913 there were 496 sick students, and 312 sick employees and members of the families of both students and employees; in all, 2537 visits by patients were made during the year.

Seriously ill patients called the physician or feldsher to their homes; such calls were made by the physician in 312 cases and by the feldsher in 120 cases.

Students requiring inpatient treatment were referred to the clinics of the IMPERIAL Tomsk University or to other medical institutions in the city of Tomsk.

The pharmacy attached to the Institute’s reception room filled 6124 prescriptions with free distribution of medicines.

The diseases with which students, Institute employees, and their family members presented are shown in the appended table.

Student Scientific and Technical Societies

There were four organizations of this kind at the Institute during the reporting year: the aeronautics circle, the technical circle, the photography circle, and the refrigeration circle. Some information about these circles, extracted from their reports, is being appended to the Institute report for the first time, outside the general plan.

The technical circle, which has existed since 1909 and whose report covers a period of a year and a half, consists of sections: mechanical, civil-engineering, mining, and chemical, and had 256 members as of October 1, 1912, and 173 members as of January 1, 1914. Among its undertakings of scientific and pedagogical significance, the following should be noted:

1) an exhibition of student works, arranged by the civil-engineering section with the support of seven members of the teaching staff, who gave explanations, and which attracted more than 1,500 visitors;

2) an excursion to inspect technical enterprises of European Russia and the Kiev Exhibition; this excursion, consisting of two leaders from among the teaching staff and 15 students, inspected, over the course of two summer months, in addition to the exhibition, a number of factories, plants, stations, and several sights in Kiev, Ekaterinoslav, Tula, and Moscow; the excursion received from the Institute an allowance of 600 rubles. In addition, the circle organized another five less significant excursions, partly not far from Tomsk, partly within the limits of the city itself. At the meetings of the circle, 18 reports were heard, of which 7 were delivered by members of the teaching staff and 11 by the students themselves.

In the circle’s library, as of January 1, 1914, there were 680 titles of books and 143 numbers of drawings, and 45 periodicals were received.

Among the undertakings of the circle that did not have direct scientific and pedagogical significance, the following should be mentioned: 1) a shop of stationery supplies, whose turnover, as is evident from the treasurer’s report, was determined as of January 1, 1913, by proceeds from goods sold in the amount of 10,068 rubles 31 kopecks, with a cost price of 9,706 rubles 25 kopecks; 2) a book warehouse, which, according to data as of January 1, 1914, yielded 2,914 rubles 50 kopecks from the sale of new books, with a cost price of 2,825 rubles 64 kopecks; and 3) the publishing activity of the circle, which by January 1, 1913, had brought in 422 rubles 85 kopecks of income, with a cost—

amounting to 354 rubles 91 kopecks; 7 articles were published, whose authors were chiefly members of the teaching staff.

The Photo Circle consisted in 1913, which was the 6th year of its existence, of 59 members. The circle organized an exhibition of works by its members, which attracted more than 1,500 visitors. Three reports were heard at the meetings of the circle. The circle set up its own laboratory, the activity of which may be judged from the expenditure on plates, reagents, and paper in the amount of 227 rubles 16 kopecks.

The Circle for Refrigeration Work, as is evident from the report for 1913–14 (the third year of the circle’s existence), possessed by the end of the reporting period a library of 124 books and 324 copies of periodical publications. The subscription to books cost 135 rubles 42 kopecks, which constitutes the largest item of expenditure.
