THE ARMs.sALE INQUIRY.

WASHINGTON, April 1G.-The Senate
Arms Committee met this morning. -
w z. Barnard, corresponding clerk Of
the War Department, was sworn. He
drew draft Of the letter OF the Secretary
of War addressed to the Secretary Of
State.
81. 2. Crosby, confidential clerk 10 the
Secretary Of War, testified that he was
present on the 10th Of January, at the in.
terview between the Secretary OF War
aud Marquis De Chembrun; no letter was
then read from The Secretary Of War to
the Secretary Of State, nor anything that
purported to be such letter.
Secretary Bclknap recalled his testimo.
ny related chiefly to the conversation with
the Marquis de Chambrun, the substance
Of which has heretofore been published in
former testimony. The witness had stated
he was positive that he had never read
his letter to the Secretary of State or to
any one, buthayfng refreshed his memory
he is now of the opinion that he did read
that document to Chambrun., The wit
ness quoted from and commented on va
rious points in Chambrdn's testimony,
saying that the Marquis was mistaken
in many Of his statements. The witness
never said to the Marquis that he was an
ordnance officer; witness did not recol-
lect some things which Chambrun had
stated as having occurred IN the conyer.
sations between them. # 6ssF
Mr.. Chambrun made some explanation
as to hia former testimony. and also IN
that Of the Secretary of War. 1.-The had
been mistaken as to his recollection con-
cerning the letter OF the Secretasy Of
War,it was, to say the least, q strange de-
duction.
