THE WASHINGTON MoNraLNI.
This report cf the joint commission crea.-
ed by the &C; approved August =, 1876, an
act providing for the completion of the
Washington monument. is also herewith
transmitted with accompanying docu-
ments. The board of engineers and OFF,
GERS detailed to examine the monument in
compliance with the % section OF the act,
have reported that the foundation Is IN
sufficient. No authority exists for expend-
iture necessary to secure its stability. l
Therefore recommend that the commission
be authorized To expend such portion or
the sum appropriated by the act AS may be
necessary Tor the purpose. Tho present
unfinished condition OF the monument,
began 50 long since, is reproach to the
nation. 1t cannot he doubted that the
patriotic voice OF the country will respond
| 70 such prompt provision as may be made
| for its completion at an early day, ana
urge upon congress the .propriety and
necessity of immediate legislation for this
purpose.
