It VIII Save Millions to the Treasury-Abol-
 ishing Unprotitable Custom Houses.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. l9.-The Dockery law, which made such sweeping re- duction in the clerical force in the treasury department, has been in oper- ation for over two weeks. The effect of the change has been closely watched, not only by Secretary Carlisle and his assistants in the treasury, but also by prominent officials in other depart ments, who desire to eradicate from cir system of conducting business W nat might be termed as red tape" {" The Cookery law has reduced this ob- jectionable feature of conducting busi- ness with the treasury department to a minimum. Other departments desire to appropriate to themselves these ben eficial results, and already it is stated efforts will be put forth to have con- gress reorganize the business methods and clerical forces of several of the de- partments.
 The Cookery law will effect a saving of Sl ,OOO, 900 year in the treasury.
 The treasury is even going further in its efforts to reduce expenses. It is proposed to abolish custom houses which do not yield sufficient revenue for their support. For several years such efforts have been put forth, but unsuc- cessfully. Commissioner Pugh, in his report to Secretary Carlisle, has given list of over twenty-five custom houses which reported transactions during the fiscal year ended June 30 last. Among these are Annapolis, Md; Brunswick, Ga.; Chattanooga, Tenn; Cherrystone, Va; Eastern Maryland, Fernandina, Fla; Georgetown, S. C.; La Crosse, Wis; St. Augustine, Fla; St. Marks, Fla; St. Marys, Ga.; Natchez, Miss; Newport News, Va; Paducah, Ky; Pamlico, N. C..

A Question of Precedence.

'In an adjoining room," said a father, q hear my two young children, who have just got up, discussing ear nestly the question who shall get washed first. This may not be ques- tion of high international importance, but it is certainly one of some domes- tic interest. Each claims the right to be washed first, supporting the claim by sundry statements as to who was washed first yesterday, and so on; but both are willing to submit the case to their mother for arbitration, which they do. Just how she settled it don't know; happily, however, surely; for now 1 hear them laughing; but with srch cn arbiter what possible outcome could there be except peace and quiet and general satisfaction and good humorr'-N.

Safe In the Penitentiary,

COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 19.-William Dol by, the negro sentenced at Washington Courthouse to twenty years imprison- ment and the cause of the deaths of three members of mob from bullets from militia rifles, was landed in the penitentiary at o'clock yesterday morning under guard of Sheriff Cook and Deputy Busick, and the Columbus companies of the Ohio national guard. The prisoner stated to the prison officials that he was not guilty, but had entered plea of guilty be- cause he had been informed that he was to be mobbed and that this was the only way to escape with his life. He claimed never to have been arrested or charged with the slightest infrac- tion of the law. Dr. Ireton, in making the physical examination, said Dolby's legs trembled and his heart futtered as result of his scare.

rbo New Army Regulations Nearly
 Ready for Distribution.
, RULING REGARDING PENSIONS.
,,,.,I Termination of Service Limited to one of Two Dates-Gen. Brooke's Re- port-Ue Refers to the Debs
 strike and IndustrialIsts.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.--The new army rorrIations are rapidly nearing com nIetion. Three-fourths of the entire work has been approved by Gen. Scho- 4eId. The balance is likely to be ros,ed on by him within the next two ny three weeks. It remains then only to have the entire work approved by tha secretary of war. The advanced stare of the work makes it probable that the new volume will be ready for distribution before the close of the year.
 The new regulations are regarded as ouite important as the new tactics em- brace the common law of the army; based on experience, orders of the nre,ident and of the war department, laws of congress, etc. It covers all ouestions of military discipline, rank, and precedence, appoint mentS and promotions, uni forms and equipments, furloughs, de- sertiOnS, post canteens, ceremonies, rav and allowances, flags, music and the innumerable things which govern every branch of an army life. Indi- rectly also the regulations are awaited with much interest by the militia and national guard as the state troops adopt the government regulations as well as the tactics.
 RULING REGARDING PENSIONS.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-Assistant Sec retary of the lterior Reynolds has made ruling that section 740l, revised stat uteS, limits the legal termination of service in any pension case to either one of only two possible dates; these are the date of actual discharge forany other cause than expiration of the term of office of the organization and the date of disbandonment of the or ganization because the expiration of term of service. It is held that a de- termination of the commencement of service by the war department from it's records after full consider ation of the law and the facts, in any claim based upon service during or since the war of the rebellion will be accepted by the interior department as final The rule that pay is coinci- dent with and determines the period of such service is vacated and set aside and the consequent decisions are over ruled.

 WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-The annual report of Brig.-Gcn. John R. Brooke, commanding the department of the Platte, made public to-day, says the Indians throughout the department have been quiet and peaceable. Gen.

And during the months of July and August the trans-continental roads and branches were seriously in- terfered with by the strikers. In both cases the United States troops were successfully used to restore order and open the roads to traffic. This will form the subject of special report"
