Washington, March 12. A review ol tbe work done by the Dockery Joint com mission of congress, created fur tbe par pose of inquiring into and examining the statin of tbe law governing the ex ecutive departments, has been printed. The greater number of tbe recommenda tion of the commission so far have been pot into practical opeiation, and bave been from time to time made public. The review shows that the entire cost of the commission SKitregaWd 41,245, while the actual annual reductions in govern ment expenditures made as a result of its work amount to (oU7,6tl. The re view continues: 'The reduction is not for the time be ing ouly, but will continue through each of the coming years. The members of the commission, however, feel that the expedition of public business and added security to the government in its meth ods of accounting under the new sys tems inaugurated would have fully justi fied its existence, even if there had been no diminution in expenses." A censuB of tlie departments held at the direction of the commission dis closes tlie fact that in the executive gov ernment and its establishment at the national capital there are employed 17, 9MI persons, and of this number ll,o(J7 are employed in tlie eight executive de partments, and 6, 037 by the department I of labor, the civil service commission and tlie HhIi commission, winch are nnder the civil Bervice law ; 8,207 are of the class subject to competitive exami nation preliminary to appointment, and 3,243 of them entered tbe service after such examination, and of tlie whole number employed 6,105 have from one to nine relatives each in tbe government service at Washington.

Chicago, March 12. The Switch men's Mutual Aid Association, of which Charles Booty was elected president at the last meeting, met this evening with 400 present. The new constitution was adopted.

Al bert Baker, a young mechanic of Gold endale, bas recently invented a placer mining machine. It is built with wheels within the tubular connection from the wire sieves to the quicksilver amalgam. It requires about six miner's inches of water to run it to such an extent that it will require tbe steady effort of three good shovelers to supply the feedhead. When the machine has been set in posi tion it has the appearance of an old-time fan mill. Scores of eager spectators, many old coast miners, within the past week, have viewed the machine working in tlie black sands on the Little Klicki tat, at a point within a stone' throw of Goldendale.

An Unaatl. factory State of Affair K- l.tlng at Pendleton Penplkton, Or., March 12. Umatilla county had an addition to It citizen- ! bIiid of 1.000 Indian Saturday, when d Fee rendered his decision. The " , ,. .. ... . . th. effect, no doubt, if sustained by the tiieir iaridsrfflli'efi yfre allotted under condition. The Indian chiefs' iW.ere under arrest for resisting a United States officer, were immediately released and a council called at Young Ubiel s camp, fifteen mile above the agencv, of all Indians, to consider matters. Near the agency Captain Richard camped with troop D, of the Fourth cavalry, from Fort Walla Walla, aucourted for heavy services. Agent Harper Bays : "I called tlie troops because Judge Fee's decision removes all my authority over the Indians. Mo power now exists to prevent tne Indiana becoming In tor cated and endangering the live of .' on the reservation. They are now iree to follow their natural inclinations and drift back to savagery." A radical change in the relation of Indians to the people of this county render aome people timid. There are expressions of fear that dire result will follow. The Indian agent under the new regime can merely rent the Indians' land to the whites. The Indian court is done away with. Indian policemen bave been discharged and the stale courts have complete and sole jurisdiction, Thla I Different. New Yore, March 12. The letter of Dr. Andrews to Professor Turnbull, of Colorado Springs, ha been taken to im ply that Dr. Andrew had been ap pointed by President Cleveland as one of the monetary commissioners, and that the conference had actually been called, but telegraphic inquiry from the World to Dr. Andrew brought the reply: "The inference from my letter to Pro fessor Turnbull ia wholly unwarranted. I have received no new appointment. 1 know absolutely nothing of the presi dent's plans. I mean to attend the next conference, but not necessarily as a member."

Sal aries of course formed the principal Item, but amounted to leas than usual not quite $10,000. For this month the salary list should be still lighter owing to tbe reduction oi tne ponce rorce. It is ranorted at Everett, Wash., that Mr. Rockefeller and President Hill, of the Great Northern, are likely to unite their forces in a strong combination at Everett under which the Pacific steel barge works will build four large steam ers lor tbe Pacific coast business of the Great Northern. While this would be equivalent to a money bonus of $1,600, nm (nr Mr. Hill, it would mean great prosperity for the barge works and the distribution of a large amount of money. Tbe Tacoma Clearing-House Associa tion has petitioned the chamber of com merce to use its influence with mer chant and business men, to the end that they accept British Columbia coin at par, in conformity with the action of associated banks agreeing to do like wise.

The New England Fish Company, whose headquarters are at Boston, Mo.hr.. and who have been fishing for halibut in Britleh Columbia water all winter, have closed the season's opera tions.
