GENERAL WASHINGTON DISPATCHES

WASHINGTON, July II, 1875.
THE NEW YORK POST OFFICE INVESTIGATION
REPORT OF THE CoAMITrEx-rHR BUILDING
AND THE FURNITURE sArIsFAcroRY-sEvERE
CONDENSATION OF THE SUPERVISING ARcHI-
rEcr AND SUPERINTENDENT FOR EXTENDING
MORE THAN THE APPROPRIATIONS.
Tho Committee on Expenditures on Public Buildings
through thor subcommittee. Messrs. Poppeton Bag
ley and Pratt TO whom was referred specially the
matter of the expenditure OF public moneys in
the construction of the New York Post Omce
building, the furnishing OF tho same, the ma
terials supplied, &c, say that = full and valu-
abb consideration has been received by the
government from the persons claiming compensation:
that the articles furnished Of good quality and
nshed At reasonable priecs and the articles furni-
ture placed in the building all for the
use OF the persons occupying tho building engaged
in the public service Tho committee find that the
appropriations for the building and tho furnishing of
the have been exceeded by little over the sum
Of $227, 900, for which official misconduct on
the part Of those having charge such work
and the disbursements Of the public moneys thereunto
applicable there is no excuse or paation; that it
WAS clearly the duty OF the Supervising Architect Mr.
Mulet, and the Superintendent of said building, Mr.
Hubert, to have fully understood the cxact condition
to it that not one dollar OF oney expended
single obligation incurred by either OF them after they
might have reasonably ascertaned that the money for
the building exhausted is a clear proposition,
about which there be no doubt; and the
committee arc satisfied that the persons having
In charge said work have been guilty OF
gross negligence and carclessness in the discharge Of
their official duties not totally reckless OF the public
interests in their disregard of law; and the commit
tee satisfied from all the evidence that all the per-
sons holding claims against the government embraced
In the schedule presented innocent parties that
they acted in good faith in the premises and that in
equity they entitled to have their claims paid
Tho committee find that the furniture used in
the former apartments occupied by the federal
authorities prior to tho occupancy Of the new Post
once building disposed Of according to law at
sonaby fair prices and that the proceeds OF the
have been paid into the United States Treasury.
Representative Pratt makes explanatory state
ment that while the persons in charge Of the
tion OF the building properly chargeablo with
neglect Of duty In suffering q larger cx-
pendlture Of money thereon than nppropri-
ated Tor that purpose, yet the evidence negatives
tho conclusion that such neglect from any reck
less disregard of public interest," and shows that the
appropriation exceeded account of urgent pub
lie necessity OF early completion OF the building
use and occupancy by the federal authorities. The
facts disclosed take from this neglect any element
OF intentional msconduct and moral turpitude.

OF the notion Mr.. Vance, of North Carolina, worked
diligently among tho democrats TO rallv the friends OF
repeal the proposition again submitted, but its
opponents nhbustcred and forced adjourn
ment, their efforts to secure Adjournment being
secretly helped by the democratic leaders who not ony
averse to deciding tho question without further
consideration, but were really anxious to prevent any
possible introduction Of the the discussion of the Ham
burg outrage with which Mr smals of South Carolina,
charged ready for explosion.
