The Naval Investigation.
Majority and Miuority.

WASHINGTON, May 10.-The Committee on
expenditures in the navy department made
their report to-day. The majority charge ex-
travagance and gross violation of the laws in
the last administration, alleging that system
of favoritism existed, and that while meritori
GUS claims were left unpaid, favorites fattened
on the funds of the department
In conclusion the majority recommend the
adoption of the following resolution.
That the committee on appropriations be and
hereby is instructed to report an appropriation
in the sum of So, ,73S rs or SO much thereof
as may be necessary to enable the Secretary OF
the Navy to pay claims mentioned to the re-
spective parties named hereinafter.
That the Secretary of the Navy be and is
hereby directed to cancel the contracts dated
March 8, 1877 with Phineas Busgess for the
completion OF the Monadnock for $685., 900; with
VIM. Cramp & Sons for the completion of the
Terror for S575, ZOO; with Harlin s. Hollisworth
for the completion of the Amphitrite for $57S,
600; with John Roach for the completion of the
Puritan for 81, ALI ,642; also the contracts with
South Boston Iron Company dated respectively
March 9TH and 10th, 1877, for the construction
OF boilers together amounting to the sum of
$3,600,623. This report is signed by Represen.
talives Willis, Whltthorn, Carlisle and Pride
more.
The Minority Report.
The minority report is signed by Representa-
tives Page, Hubbell and Williams. The report
says the majority ignores the testimony before
the com mittee and seek to create occasion for
undeserved censure. The principal part of the
Indebtedness of the navy is for rebuilding five
double turreted ironclads and it finds no
ground on which to criticise the contracts for
this work and argues at length to show that
there has been no violation of the law.
In the first resolution of the majority
it agrees but as regards the second
it, recommends that the Secretary of
the Navy be instructed to examine the contents
therein referred to, and on being satisfied with
the same an appropriation be made therefor.
The minority say the exact Indebtedness of the
navy is $3,2l7,73S 76, which resulted from the
change of policy of Congress, by which appro-
priations have been greatly reduced and work
contracted for left uncompleted,

sum mons to st. Petersburg of Mr.. Coumany,

Coumany, who was political diplomatist be-

as one of the Russians best acquainted with the
Eastern question. He is on excellent terms
with Schouvaloff, whose views on the present
phase of the political situation he approves
We are assured that he always opposed those
clauses of the San Stefano treaty which
raised the strongest objections, and with rrince
Labanoff (the Russian ambassador to Constan-
tlnople) Baron Jomni and Count Schouvaloff
he will represent at the Russian court the con-
ciliation party 10 opposition to Ignatieff, who
represents the other party, and whose influence
seems for some days to have materially dimin-
ished.
