The Chief Joseph Indians.

Agent Cole, of the Colville Indian
reservation, says:
"Chief Joseph's band, the Nee Perces,
are far behind Chief Moses people in
the way Of civilization. They are sup
ported by the government and are thus
enabled to live in idleness. They never
will amount to much until the govern
ment withdraws its support. All efforts
TO induce them to discard their blankets
and wear clothes like white people have
proved unavailing. They live in tepees
instead of houses and are in all other
respects typical siwashes. Joseph takes
very little interest in their advancement
and lives in tepee himself Those Of
the tribe who can speak English won't
do it If they can help it."

special TO the RECOIeD-UNION.
WASHINGTON, April S. About six
months ago repairs were completed upon
the United States steamer. Alert, at Mare
Island Navy Yard, and the vessel was
put in commission-which means that
she received q full complement of officers
and men, and was ready to go to sea.
But the vessel did not sail, and she is
to-day at her berth, waiting orders.
1t was reported that the repairs were so
unsubstantial i'll character that it would
be dangerous for the vessel TO go TO sea-
On the other hand there were disagree
able rumors that certain officers did not
want to sail in the vessel, as they pre-
ferred the newer cruisers and We're try
ing 10 cause seaworthy vessel to be con-
demned. Boards and surveys were or
dered, and their reports indicated that the
repairs had been scamped; that the inner
skin of the vessel had not been properly
renewed that serious defects in it had
been covered over with paint. and that
the boilers were liable to sink through.
THE INVESTIGATION.
This state of affairs led the department
to order an investigation Oh the following
lines: Has there been any neglect OF
duty or careleSSnesS on the part of any
officer OF the navy or employe of the
Navy Yard at Mare Island in preparing
the Alert for sea? If SO, state the name
or names of such officer or officers, or en-
ploye or employees, and the particulars
Of carelessness in each case.
The Board of Inquiry made a report
which was made public to-day.
The board declares that Naval Con-
structor Feaster has been careless in the
supervision Of the repairs Oh the Alert,
and neglectful in the examination of the
work as it progressed, which resulted in
serious defects in the ship being passed
over without repairs, and in unsatistac-
tory workmanship in the repairs made.
Master Shipwright Williamson was neg
lgent IN the performance of the duty in
trusted to him, in immediate direction of
the first repairs, prior to November q,
1880, which was Immediately the cause
OF serious defects in the ship being
passed over without repair, and in omit
ting the important work of scaling the
corroded surface before painting. Master
Shiptitter Artemas Webster was neglect
full in the performance of his duty in not
eXacting proper workmanship in the re-
pairs made upon the double bottom of the
Alert, subsequent to November "A. 1890,
and in not properly carrying out the re-
commentators OF the Board Of Survey,
by falling to remedy the defects which
were specially mentioned.
REPORT APPROVED.
These findings have been approved by
the Navy Department, and Naval Con-
structOr Feaster has been relieved from
duty at Mare Island. Master Shipfitter
Webster has been discharged, as has also
Master Shipwright Williamson.
A board composed Of Commodore r.
win, Commander Bartlett. Assistant Con-
1r,a+, n,,I1
has been ordered to survey the Alert
again, and report what repairs are neces-
sary, while Constructor Fernaid has been
ordered to assume charge of the repairs.

JACKSON (Niss.), April 8.-The Execu-

Alliance met last night to consider the
question of accepting the resignation of
their newspaper organ. The sole differ
ence was or the sub-treasury question,
but as the State and National Alliance
declared in favor of the sub-treasury
plan, it is the sense of the majority OF the
committee that ali members Of the Alli-
ance should stand by the said declaration
The minority report says i'll part: 1.-THE
signers believe the Alliance must allv
itself with one or the other national
parties to accomplish anything, or organ
ize itself into Il political party, which
would lead to its destruction, and we
believe that any measures or policy
affecting all classes Of citizens should be
freely and fairly discussed, and should
not fail if indorsed by the people. There
fore the minority cannot indorse any
action that Will nuZzle the press or in

MONITORS AT WORK.
Anti-Debris Agents Make a Tour Of
the Hydraulic Region.
They Report Several Monitors In Opera
tfon-A Rather Warm Recep-
ton rendered.

At Yesterdays session Of the Super
visors a communication was read from
George Ohleyer, Manager of the Sacra-
mento Valley Anti-Debris Association,
calling the attention of the board to the
report made to him by George H. Ma
gruder and J. w. O'Bonion, who had
been engaged to investigate the condition
of affairs in the hydraulic mining section.
The report stated that the agents left
Nevada City on March 10th, and reached
Wisconsin Hill at 2 A. NJ. on the 18th,
where they found two monitors playing
on bank in a mine owned by NJ. r. Glee-
son. The mine was operated by two
Cinnamon at night and twelve during the
day.
At Iowa Hill. in the Homeward Bound
Mine, operated by Alex. Rossi, one moni-
tor was in operation.
AT the Washington Consolidated Mine
one monitor with a four-inch nozzle was
playing upon the gravel.
InjunctionS were served upon the
Golden Hope Mine, and J. +. Brown, Jr.,
one of the proprietors, residing III Sacra-
ASento, was afterwards served.
Near Butcher Ranch, on the left bank
of the Middle Fork several claims were
found in full operation, among which

Maither, called the valparaiso" one by
Elliott McKinstry, and one by Pete Sirh.
Near Placerville an idle monitor was
found, which had been used to wash bed
rock. At Coloma the river bore evidence
of mining, probably caused by sluice
mining. Most of the damaging work
was found to be done on the north fork
of the American.
Returning to Wisconsin HILL the James
Gleason mine was still found in opera
ton, and sufficient evidence was OBJ
tanned to file a complaint, making the
ninth of this character discovered on the
watershed.
On North Fork, above Gold Run, three
mines are in operation. On the 18th of
March these mines were visited, but Sig
nails were given to the men operating
them. Notices were posted, warning all
spies or detectives that they entered the
premises at their peril.
As the agents approached, the monitor,
which was in operation, was turned on
them, compelling them to beat hasty
retreat. They were thoroughly drenched
and pelted with gravel. The pressure of
the monitor was 800 feet
y statement of the above facts, and the
mining operations on the American and
Yuba Rivers, was also filed by Charles Z.
Stone, President of the Anti-Debris AS
suciation, b. L. Walton, Secretary, and
George 0hleyer, Manager, calling the at
tention OF Hon. Charles a. Garter, United
States District Attorney, to the state of
affairs, the condition of the navigable
and other streams, and asking for such
relief as lay within his power.
