WASHINGTON , July 5 1 a. m. The investigation set on foot by the department of state to ascertain the particulars of the firing upon of two American vessels by the Spanish gun boat "Nuncio" has brought such mea gre results as to justify the belief that the reports , if not wtiblly untrue , have been greatly exaggerated , but in order t < ± satisfy all concerned the sec retary of State requested the secretary of the navy to send a vessel of war to the Weat Indians to 'institute further inquiries , and to report the result as speedily as possible. The secretary of the navy , as pre viously stated in these dispatches , has directed the "Tennessee" flagship of the north Atlantic cquadron , to per form this service. When the outrages were first reported here the secretary of state communicated them to the Spanish mluiajgr and the latter promptly' ' questioned the captain-gen eral of Cuba on the subject and the latter reported that there was no such gunboat in the Spanish service AS the "Nuncio. " A suggestion was made at the tame time that if the re ports were correct as to the firing on American vessels by an armed vessel whose the "Nun- name was given as - clc" < aid vessel was probably in the employ of the Cuban insurgent gov ernment , And her acts were intended to make trouble between the govern ments of Spain and the United States. It is believed that the visit of the "Tennessee" to Cuban waters will speedily solve all doubts on the ub- ject. It is the intention of the gov ernment to act promply ) in caee the reports prove to be correct. STOPPING THK LAST LEAK.

On Saturday night , in the Grafton Theatre , shortly after the performance commenced , a male singer came out and sang a song , the concluding stan zas of which praised Gladstone and censured Beaconsfield. When the song ended , a perfect storm of cheers and hisses arose from all parts of the house , and the uproar was indiscriba- ble. The hisses and cheers seemed to be about equal in the gallery , but in the pit all cheered again and again ex cept one man , a well-dressed , power fully. . tuJt y ° ung follow , with black wHisKere 'and mustaches , who hissed vehemently. A cry was raised to throw out the "Tory , " and two men rushed forwaid to do so ; but they miscalculated the sort of a customer they had to deal with , for the young man struck out and sent them both rolling over , seeing which the rest hung back , and the performance pro ceeded ; but not for long , for Lord Beaconsfield's admirer , emboldened by vector ? , interruptcd the singer again and again , and finally wound up by offering to fight the three best liberals in the house. His taunts at length became so gelling that the Gladaton- ians again rushed at him , headed by a young man eaid to be a clerk in a gov ernment office. The "tory , " seeing the odds against him , retreated to a corner , where he stood at bay , and , as his opponents came up , with a single blow of his 6st he knocked down the reputed government clerk , and catch ing the unfortunate man by the collar and waistband , hurled him at hia friends , three or four of whom were knocked down by the novel missile. The excitcment iu the house was now intense. Several in the gallery tried to get down into the pit to join in the row , while the whole audience stood on the benches to catch a glimpse of the desperate struggle that was going on. The combat was too unequal , however , to last lone ; , and in a few minutes Lord Beaconsfield's unlucky friendwr.a knocked senseless to the ground , and was carried out by a few of his friends who had , however , pru dently refrained from helping him be fore. The performance then proceed * ed , but It was a long while ere the ex citement cauc.ed by this episode sub sided. Gotham Gore. Special Dispatch to The Bee. NEW YORK , July 6 , 1 a. m.
