Orrawa, May 31.—-Mr. Ogilvie’s report ou the Yukor investigation has been pre- sented. Itis a long document and sete forth that the commissioner decided at the beginning to hear no evidence relating to events subsequent to last August,

Mr, Ogilvie finds that the claim should not have been allowed but says that Fawcett allowed it under a mistake as to the facts,

The other cases iu which it was alleged that government cfficers compelled tne miners to take them into partnerslip, Ogilvie :hinks were pot proved.
