WEIGHING IMPORTED GOODS.

The contract for weighing imported goods, which
was let over year ago to Solomon Spi,zer, Of
Brooklyn, for $75. 900 year for three years, has
been terminated by order of the Government The
work has not been well done. and much delay and
annoyance have been caused importers. The prico
at which Mr.. Splitter offered TO do the work has
proved inadequate and it il said that his laborcrs
have not been fully paid. This delay has caused
much dissatisfaction. aud II was said yesterday at
the Custom House that the men might stop work
at any time. The Government has already advanced
money 20 the contractor but In sums insufficient TO
enable him to prosecute the work. By customs
officers the contractors failure to fulfill his con-
tract is attributed generally to the large increase
in business.
new contract, made eXperimcntaily for three
months, has been given TO Albert Daggctt, who was
one Of the bidders Tor the former contract classi-
fcatiOn has been made for all imported goods and
under the new contract the work of weighing Is
paid for according TO this classification.
