The long inivestigations into the Me- Greevy-Langevin & Ce. scandais are over sud ]ast week the sub-ceuumitteeocf thp1 Privilege3 an 1 Electiens -Cemmittee pro-f senfted their reports-a mnajerit, (,e Toryc whiitewaeshing report sud a minerity Jor Grit report; fer while Sir 'John Tbompson sud Messrs. Adams and Gir- cDuardl have spent about twoweeks endeav- oringf te find excuses for Sir Hector Lang- evini's cendluct in ceunection with the eev-a eral ma.zttors referred te in Mr. TarWs s rh -trges, Messrs. Mihis and Davies, the Lib- irai obr of the sub-committee ap- pointed te prepare a draf t report te ho sub-a miittedl tothec main eomnittee on Privilegese an(! Eleetie ns, have presonted a reportt which deais with the case in accord-f ~anee with the tacts as stated in evidence. The draf t report presented by the Conserv- J ative mnemfbers cf the sub-committee sets forth, in brief, thit Thomas McGreevy is s verv bad c man, wile Sir Hlector Lang- ovin was a simple tedl in bis hands; thats ifector was more ooe than rogue, and 8 proniounices miiidc censure up n Mr. Mc-i Greevy and Mlr.

But for thlis - I Iobstacle Sir Hector's recommiiendation wouldl have been duiy carried into effeet, and Ithec tax-payers would have hxad to pay for 100 fooet of useles dock, s imply because the con-tractors agred lte pay $50,000 eut of their profits providled this change wag effectedi. It is taxing public credulity too far to expect the people of Canada to helieve that Sir Hector Langevin did net know why Mr. McGreevy wanted the dock ex- tended. Thoe ircumstances under which the contract for the Esquimaît dock was awarded te Larkin, Connoiiy & Co., also discredit the tbeory of Sir llecter's in- nocence.. The tender cf Larkin, Connolly & Cc.was net tbelowest. Messrs Starrs & O'Haniy wbo were the lowest tenderers, swear that they were ready te accept tha contract,. Tbey were frigbtened into witb-drawing their tender by Sir Hector Langevin bimself-wbo pretended tbat their tender was altogether tee low and that ne extras or charges -would ho allowed or paid f or. But the report cf the expert acceuntants employed by the committee shows that the dock was aetually built for $50,000 less thaiithte tender cf Messrs. Starrs & O'lainly, and that changes and oxtras were allowed te Larkin, Connoliy & Co., their profits upen the work being something enormous; notwithstanding the ameunts paid eut as "donations" tc Thomas MeGreevy and others. Wby was Sir Hector se anxious te have the centract undertaken by Mr. McGxreevy's favorites instead cf by Starrs & O'Hanly2 Every advaritage which Mr. McGreevy agreed te procure fer the centracters was dnly oh- tained. In every case where hoe agreed te ebtain changes, extras, etc., for se mnuch cash, the goods were duly delivered; beiug in every case ohtained tbreugb the late minister cf public werks. It is utterly absurd te condemn Mr. Mc- 0 reevy and exonerate Sir flector, because the latter ivas the chief sinner. Witbeut the influence and active co-operatien cf Sir Ilecter Mr. McGreevy weuld bave beeni utteiwerl essand ceuld net have 1earried eut any cf bis arrangements with the centracters. No deubt the minister- iai majerity will accept the wbitewashing report, but their se doing will simply con- vince the public that Mr.Abheltt's petend- ed anxiety te purify public ile and pun- ish beediers is ail shani and bumbug, and that hoe is reaily auxieus te save the phun- derers frein punishment. Mr. Abbe t tbinks liecan satisfy public opinion by punishing, a few ef the miner officiais, whe have been merely misled by the bad ex- ample of their superiers, ivhile allewing the chief effenders te escape. 110w utter. ly absurd it is te suppose that Sir Hlector Langevin did net- know the source frein whence Mr. McGreevy ebtained the $35,000 givente. support Le Monde. In ciosing bis address hefere the Priv- ilegesand-Eleo-tion-s cemmittee, Mr. Fitz- patirck, counsel for Thomas McGreevy, appealed te thie members net te maize a scapegeat cf Ibis client, or te saddle upen hin Heins of othiers. But that is exact- ly whiat the minister of justice is going te te ask tlie cemmiiittee and the flouse of Commeiins te de. Mr. Abbott as ain Anti-Oorrupt- ionikt. Mr. Abbott is represented b)y the Tory pspers as being fifly determiined te cleanse the Augean stables, says thlelbe. fIe is describedi, in tact, as thoe pure-air shiaft cf Canadian politics. Thus far hoe bas net distinguishied imnself in that capacity.
