NAVAL INVESTIGATION.
TIE CUBAN sEHsATfoN.

Sttciaf Dfsp1teh to 1a< Tribune.
WASHINGTON, D. c., July 7.-SccrctaEy IIobc-
son explained to tho Committee on Naval At
fairs to-day tho origin Of ccrtntu deficiencies In
tic appropriations for his Department for tho
last ascnt year. Thcsc deficiencies amount to
about q, OK, QUO, 100000 being for expenses
Of the Burcau Of Construction aud lecpa!rs aud
Of Steam Engineering, mud tho other IN the ex-
pcrulIturcs Of the Burcau Of Provisions n'ld
Clothing. At Tho time the excitement In regard
to Cuban nlfutrs occurred lust fall, con-
tracts had already been entered into
which involved the expenditure Of all or
nearly nil Of the money which ha'f
been appropriated for these bureaus. When the
navy was rlacetl On d WAT fouting other e1ptudl-
tares bcca1ne necessary, all Of which wcrc
PAID OUT or TIE APPROPRIATION
for thu current year, aud tlls did not leave
money enough to meet the obligations Of the
Department previously contracted. The accre-
tary, by cnrclul management, WaE ablc to pay
asl bills which became tlue during tho fiscal
year. Tie deficiency In tho Bureau Of Pro-
visions and Clothing Is due, according to tile
Secretary, to insufficient appropriation for tho
pay Of the navy. When ci0ihtng ia fssucd to
ottlccra Or men Of the navy tie bureau OF prG-
visions and c0thing Is credited with ttlc cost OF
1t, and at the ind of the year settlement be-
tween tic two bureaus tnkcs p}aee. Last year
the appropriation tur the pay u the navy being
insufficient, TO such settlement coulti take
pluce, aud payments will have to be lHado out
Ut the appropriation for the curfcnt year.
