CAPT. HOXIE SHOULD HAVE BAD CHARGE, ‘Washington Correspondence Baltimore Sun. The developments of faulty work in the Dig ‘Water tunnel grow Worse. The opinion of experts ‘Was expressed to-day to the effect that it may be necessary to do the whole work practically over from the stage where it was left by Capt. Hoxie. Itis thought to be most inappropriate that tne investigation now going on is under the direction of the very engineer officer invested with the superintendence of the work, and who did not know there was anything wrong about it until the newspapers found tt out for iim. Its held the investigation should be made by a spectally ap- Polnied commission, and if the War Department does not take te initiative in the matter itm: be prompted by congressional direction, It 1s Well to bave it understood that the Administra- tion 4s not in the least responsible tor the appaint- ment of the enzineer officer who has been nomi- haliy at the head of the work.

Engi- heers, while naturally averse at the present to be quoted personally, are not backward in expressing tue opinion that Major Lydecker ts much to blame for neglecting to provide bevter and more thorouxh inspection of the work as it progressed. “The initial mistake,” Cne Of the oMicers stated, “was the removol of’ Capt, Hoxie from the supervision Of the work. Hoxie med the tuanel, and should have been retained in charge until its com- pleuion, He would have had his reputation at Stake, and would therefore have been interested 1 securing good workmmanslip. Besides, as the Dulldiag of tue tunnel went along he could have corrected any errors in his plans. Tam sure, bad he remained here, the tunnel would not now be a monument to the heglect of any one. Hoxte was Constantly on the ground overlooking the work. It would bave been impossible for any glaring fraud to have escaped his notice.
