WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.--euetary Sherman'has

tunity to examine it in detail. He viii give it his
attention tomorrow. The report is mainly confined
to the affairs of the Appraisers Office, which es-
capes with a much less severe criticism than did
the Wcigher's Department, but the Commission
finds considerable room for improvement III the
management, and some in the personnel of the force
SPECIAL attention is given to the abuses connected
with passen ery baggage, ana number of recon-
mendations are made looking to their cor
rection. The difficulties which express cOmpa-
MES have experienced in securing prompt i'll
specti0n and delivery of goods imported
by them are discussed at some length. The
express companies claim that the Chief element
Of success their business lies in their ability TO
transport goods with more than ordinary rapidity,
and this they say, very difficult for them to do
der the present management of the Appraisers Office
The Commission is also Of opinion that the Apprais-
ers stores should not be located at great dis
lance from the rest of the Custom House business
as they are now.
Secretary Sherman decided to delay action upon
the report of the Commission relative TO the Weigh
ers Department, until he has thoroughly examined
the arguments presented by the Weighefs.
