NAVAL OFFICER LAFLIN BEFORE THE SENATE
COMMITTEE.
The Senate committee to inquire into alleged
abuses in the New York custom house met this
morning, and a letter was read fr0n q. w. H.
Schultz rea1irmng his testimony that Kasmire
said he cane TO his store to examine his books
on ton derived from a custom-hOuse
omcer. CHER letters were laid before the COM
mitee, Elcluding one from Tceadwel to the
effect that Kasmire ready to say that
Schultz was wrong in every particular. The
committee passed an order that Kasmire and
Van ksalte should communicate with the COM
mittee by affidavit on that subject
A: d. LGtin. naval officer for the port of New
York, testified as to his duties; he has under him
sixty nine clerks and three messengers, but was
not aware that any of them had received pay
except under provisions of law. He also ex-
plsinsd at some length the connection of his
OBJ ce with that of the collector, and the specific
duties performed. In April, 1871, when he took
possession OF the Office, he had heard statements
that 1t was not an important one, and he had
direct. d his special deputy, Col. Burt, to keep
record OF the custom house errors corrected at
the naval Office; this record was kept for his
own satisfaction, and embraced all the errors
both for and against the government; in a Pc
Rod of eight months, all the errors both for and
against the government, amounted to about
one million OF dollars; the net result of those
against the government we're three OF four hun
dred thousand dOllaas.
At noon the committee took recess for one
hour.
The committee reassembled this afternoon,
when the examination of MIR. Latin was CON
tinued, and he explained at some length the
manRcr in which business was transacted. He
said at one time he thought the errors were the
result of too much carelessness, though, of
course, in the great rush of business some
errors might occur; he knew of no case where
bis clerks had received compensation for doing
their Official duties at night; would not permit
them to receive extra pay from merchants; the
salaries Of the clerks range from twelve to
twenty-five hundred dollars per annum witness
