Robeson preseut of long branch cot
tage without Que cent OF consideration.
Hundreds Of thCusAnds Of dollars were
squandered in foolish experiments test
ing so-called guns; coal contracts proved
TO be more valuable than gold mines to
their possessors. and alleged ship build
ers made fortunes in repairing and build
ing vessels which 9 distinguished naval
officer sail could neither eight nor run
from the enemy in the event OF war.
The more money Robeson obtained to
spend ON the navy the less navy we had.
and 1t is very probable that IL be had re-
mained in Office under Hayes there would
not have been a Captains gig left in the
service when Garfield was inaugurated.
Robeson's record in the navy may be
summed up in a very few words: He
destroyed more ships Of war than any
naval commander in the world, from
Lord Nelson down, and in seven years Of
peace created more havoc in the Ameri-
can navy, than the British in the war of
1912, or the Confederates in the late ''un-
pleasantness." e'.-' '-.'i.-

The Hour, spirited paper printed in
New York City, has this to say of the
Robson management Of the navy:
"Robeson's management of the Navy
Department has made the two admins
trations of Gen. Grant memorable in our
history. In unblushing corruption, abuse
of power and general rascality there is
nothing to- compare with it in this coun-
trys 1t was worse and more infamous
than even the robber rule of Tweed in
this city. Rings of fayorite contractors
made enormous fortunes OF the expense
Of the Government; millions of dollars
were spent on ships, which, at the end
of his eight years in Office, proved to be
in no better condition than before. Mr..
Robson was poor man when he drew
the frat installment Of his. salary of Ss,-
600 . year rs Secretary. Seven years
afterward, when o Democratic committee
Of Congress put him through thefre of
investigation and overhauled his bank
account IN five different banks, it was
shown that he had in this short space OF
time deposited the enormous sum Of
$4e7, ,540.6 ., OK more than eight times hia
salary for the whole seven years, II was
also proved that one Of his intimate
friends had made III commissions alone
