sive answers to the charges made him
by differences from detached masseseof testi-

val Committee. Mr.. Robson says that it is
physically impossible for him to be personally
cognizant of all the abuses in the navy yards,
abuses which had prevailed for generations be.
fore he came into the Navy Department. and
that it would be quite as just to charge the
Secretary of the Treasury, for instance, with
all the petto abuses that exist at the custom
houses in the country. He scarcely knows a
naval constructor. and he has never had any
thing to do with contracts He says that most
