ANOTHER INVESTIGATION.—Secretary Folger has appointed a committee, consisting of three officers departm« vestigate the workings of the cabliet shop ot the Treaatry department. PERU INVESTIGATION CLOSED. ae ihr MR. TRESCOTT FURTHER EXAMINED TO-DAY. ———— The House committee on foreign affairs resumed the examination of Mr. Trescott this morning. Mr. Belmont wished to know if the Credit Indus- triel was the company that meant in the In- structions of June 15th, although not mentioned by name. Witness replied: “I would think so, un- questionably, to this extent: it was well under- stood that the Credit Industriel had submitted two or three plans, and, so far es I knew, it was the only company that had done so.” Witness doubted the propriety of his undertaking to swear to the meaning of a dispatch which was before the committee and should be judged by {ts context. He was willing to state, however, what he would have Understood by the instructions had he been the minister to whom they were given. He would el justified In giving friendly countenance to the Credit Industriel if they seemed to be able to fur- nish the war indemnity to Chill and save Peru from a loss of territory; but If the plans of the company involved any guarantee on the part of this government, or a protectorate, he would then have referred the whole mutter ‘at once to the State department. A QUESTION THE WITNESS OBJECTED TO ANSWERING. Mr. Belmont asked.—Do you object to answering whether you drafted the dispatch of June 15th? Answer.—Yes; Isubmit to the committee that it would be maulrestly improper for me toanswer that question. elmont.—I understand that you had sev- conversations wit the representatives of the Credit Industriel here? Answer.—Yes. I knew what they wanted. ‘The chairman.—The question seems to me both immaterial and improper. ‘The dispatch Inust be construed from its language. It {s tt Secretary's. dispateh, and it makes no” difference who wrote tt. Unless there 1s 2 manifest amblg- uity init, I do not think the witness should be asked to construe it, Mr. Belmont.—I want to know if the Credit In- dustriel was meant in that dispatch. Answer.—I should say so, unquestionably, MR. BELMONT SATISFIED, Mr. Belmont.—I am perfectly satisfied. Mr. Trescott.—I had heard before leaving the United States that the Credit Industriel had nade Propositions, but I formed my opinion in regard to the character and standing of the company after Teached Chili and Peru. I understood that their Proposition was to be considered by any ministers that might be sent out by this government, and that it should receive whatever sympathy and en- couragement it was proper to bestow; that our Intnisters should keep informed of the possibilities and abilities on the part of the company to accom. Pplish its proposed objects, and, if any guarantee or protectorate on the part of the United States ‘Was proposed, that the matter should at once be submitted to the State department. ‘The Chairman.—Suppose such a proposition had been submitted, what could our government have jone’ Answer.—Oh! Mr. Chairman, that was a matter of big politics for the Cabinet.’ It never reached such ‘a point in the negotiation. I could not un- dertake to say what action this government would have taken under suppositious circumstances. I don’t suppose our government would have enter- tained such a proposition; Indeed, Mr, Blaine dis- Unctly pronounced against st in advatice. ‘Imont.—Did tt not secm so clear to you that the Credit Industrlel was contemplated that you did not think it necessary to mention the company in that dispatch of Juné 15th?
