Washington, Aug. 24 The special committee of the Htitisc which has been investigating the-charges nlleeting the reliability of the material lor the new ships furnished by the Cat negie company of Pittsburg, has laid their report before the House. The report criticises severely both the 1'i.itcd States and the contrac tors. The inspectors, it snvs, were neit corrupt, but the work of inspection was negligent and defective. The insneetors assumed that the eoinnnnv was watch- ing its superintendents and employes The company on the other hand, relied uuon the insncctors. asking in this con- nection "what thev were there for?" The inspectors were on duty tight hours u day. Their insncction covered only forty -eight out of ICS hours a week, The frauds are characterized by the committee as crimes, tor which no fine or money compensation can adequntelv Hone. 1 he committee did not kcl the necessity of drafting a criminal statute, but the interest of the treasury, the lives ol seamen and the safety of the nation demands that s.ich acts shall Ic severely purnished in all persons onnectcd with them.
