B \1 The most suggestive facts revealed by a study of the tables and data presented in the following pages are, First, that the number of medical colleges has not increased during the past year ; tm^, Second, that the numbers of medical students and of medical graduates are decreasinglJ^here are still 128 institutions for medical instruction in the TTnifed States and Canada, the same aggregate as at the date of the last Eeport. But there were 760 leas students in attendance upon, and 273 less graduates from, the sessions of 1884-85 than upon and from the sessions of 1883-81. In the United States there • were 953 less students, and 278 less graduates. In Canada there were 176 more students and 5 more graduates, ' rtiii ' d) Q p moro i marked uniformity in the requirements of colleges. There are 2 more regular schools (101). the same number of homeopathic (13), one less eclectic (11), nuu one less physio-medical (1), which, with two miscellaneous or mixed schools, make the ag- gregate (128) as before. Graduates at the close of the sessions of 1884-85 have presented diplomas to the Tt,linois State Board of Health -as the basis of applications for certificates entiding tc practice in Illinois— from 42 regular, 7 homeopathic, 3 eclectic, and 2 physio-medical schools; being from 5 more regular, 1 more eclectic, and 1 more physio- medical than the previous year. Excluding 4 Canadian schools, the graduates of 11 out of 88 reg- ular schools, and of 4 out of 12 other schools, were required to sup- plement their diplomas by passing examinations before the Board in those branches or subjects of the Schedule of Minimum Kequire- ments which were omitted in the curricula or requirements of their respective colleges. In the previous year the graduates of 17 out of 31 regular, and of 4 out of 6 other schools were required to submit to such examination. It should be understood that diplomas issued at the close of the sessions of 1883-84, and subsequently, are accepted unconditionally — as sufScient warrant for the certificate of the Board, required by law — from all colleges which give evidence, in their Announcements and elsewise, of an actual and bona-fide compliance with the Sched- ule herein published. The diplomas of colleges which do not give such evidence are required to be supplemented by an examination before the Board, on the branches or subjects of the Schedule omitted by the colleges in question. The figures above given show a marked improvement in the pro- portion of colleges now complying with these requirements. Whereas, during the first year after the Schedule took effect, more than one- 19/6-/ ' pA A '^ half of the regular and two-thirds of the other schools (whose grad- uates applied for certificates) had failed to comply in one or more respects, only a little more than one-fourth of the regulars and one- third of the others were derelict during the past year. The improvement is shown in detail in the tables embraced in the Summary of Institutions and Students, which — among other things — show that there are now 110 colleges which exact an educational requirement as a condition of matriculation ; in the first Report there were only 45. Attendance on three or more lecture-courses before graduation is now required by 36 colleges, as against 22 heretofore ; and provision is made for a three- or four-years' graded course by 45 others. Hygiene is now taught in 91 colleges, and medical juris- prudence in 97 ; as against 42 and 61, respectively, heretofore. The average duration of lecture-terms has increased from 23.5 weeks to a fraction over 25 weeks ; 7 more colleges have lecture termp of five months or over, and 10 'more have terms of six months or over, as compared with the sessions of 1882-83. While this change in the standard and methods of medical educa- tion has been going on, it is worthy of note that the numbers of students and of graduates are diminishing — the latter in even a greater ratio than the former. The classes of the last sessions (1884-85) are less than those of any since the sessions of 1882-83. There were in attendance upon these latter sessions 13,088 students ; in 1883-84 there were 12,762 — a loss of over two and a-half per cent. ; in 1884-85 there were 12,002 — a loss of over eight per cent, since the Schedule of Minimum Requirements took effect. At the close of the sessions of 1881-82 there were 4,555 students graduated; in 1882-83 there were 4,215; in 1883-84, 4,101, and in 1884-85 only 3,831 — or nearly 16 per cent, less than from the first- named sessions. There are three causes combined to which this result may be attributed: First, "hard times" throughout the country generally since the great business prosperity of 1882 — although the value of this as one of the causes is weakened by the fact that the attend- ance upon the Canadian schools has increased instead of diminished, there being 176 more students at the last sessions than at those of the previous year, a gain of 23 per cent. Second, a general and increasing c'esire on the part of the profession to elevate the stand- ard of attainments necessary to enter its ranks. And, third, the enforcement of certain requirements in States which have enacted laws regulating the practice of medicine. Under such a law the Illinois State Board of Health, in 1880, adopted the following SoBBDUijE OF Minimum Requirements. - , . I. Conditions of admission to lectube-courses. — 1. Credible cer- tificate of good moral standing. 2. Diploma of graduation from a good literary and scientific college, or high school — a first-grade teacher's certificate. Lacking this — a thorough exaa ination in the branches of a good English education, including mathematics, Eng- lish composition, and elementary physics and natural philosophy. < ■m ■ - II.

Regular attend- ance during the entire lecture courses shall be required, allowance being made only for absences occasioned by the student's sickness, such absences not to exceed twenty per centum of the course. 2. Regular examinations or quizzes to be made by each lecturer or professor daily, or at least twice each week. 3. Final examinations on all branches to be conducted, when practicable, by competent examiners other than the professors in each branch. V.

Reorganized July 2. 1885, havins? been then In existence two year.^. The provisions of the acts creating the Board and deflalng its dutie-s and powers are, in all material points, the same as those in Illinois. Its standard of recognition of Medical Colleges as in good standing, is also the same as that established by the Illinois Board. The Board has, since its reorganization, pursued the policy of issuing licenses to practice, or certificates, only to graduates— their compliance in every particular with existing requirements being insisted upon. The granting of certificates to non-graduate applicants, after examinations held by the Board to test theirfitnessto practice, is viewed with disfavor; and by a resolution passed at the meeting held in October, 1885, it was de- clared as the sense of the Board that this feature of the law should be repealed by the Legislature— it being deemed provisional in nature and no longer beneflcially operative; mm 80 l'^ the course advised being that those seeking the legal right to practice in the State should prepare themselves in, and be duly vouched for iis to fitness by, accredited medical schools before coming before the Board for offlcliil recognition and license. The possession by the Board of delegated police power.and its judicial exercise in the regulation of medical practice, the licensing of practitioners, the refusal to issue cer- tificates to applicants guilty of unprofessional or dishonorablrt conduct, and the Evoca- tion of licenses for such cause have been fully sustained and confirmed by the Supreme Court of the State in a decision rendered in December. 1884, In the exercise of its discretion in the determination of what shall be held to consti- tute unprofessional or dishonorable conduct in physicians, the Board is declared to be beyond the reach of mandatory authority; and the same view is alfirmed in regard to its power to deal with medical colleges, provided no element of discrimination in favor of or against pa ticular systems or schools, legalized by the State, enters into its decisions. r5 1:^; MISSOURI MEDICAL COLLEGE.

Its existence was unknown to this Board, until after the recent law regulating the practice of medicine and surgery in the State of Indiana had been passed; and repeated letters requesting information in regard to its history, etc.. have failed to elicit any reply from the faculty. Owing to this reticence on the part of those connected with the school, letters of enquiry were sent to each county in Indiana, in order to ascertain how many diplomas had been placed upon record in the offices of the ('ircuit Clerks. By this means seventeen graduates have been discovered, their diplomas being dated as fol- lows: one. March 1 1883; one, February 28, 1884; one, March, 1884; eight, March 4, 1885; five, July 24, 1885; and one, July 25, 1885. 180 It will 1)0 ol)HHrvHi| that until Miin-h.
