WHY THE FORCE OF SPECIAL INSPECTORS OF
FOREIGN STEAM VESSELS WAS REDUCED.
The recent action of the Treasury department
in reducing the force of special inspectors of
foreign steam vessels to one-half the present
number is due to the fact that the inspection
service has diminished in about that ratio since
the force was originally organized by Secretary
FOlger. The number of steam vessels to be in
spected is only one-half of what it was when the
inspectors were appointed. This explanation is
made at the Treasury department SO that the
fact that u number of officers were dismissed
may be properly understood, and not consid-
cred as rejecting in any way upon their ability
or integrity.
Acting Secretary Fairchild has written letter
to the special inspectors of foreign steam ves-
sells at the port of New York, in which he says:
" In consequence of the departments intention
of dispensing with the services Of all the persons
in your office heretofore designated as special
inspectors of hulls of foreign steam vessels from
the Sta, inst, you will each of you after that
date inspect both the huls and boilers Of for.
eign steam vessels upon due application there
for. When more than one steamer is inspected
on the same day, the officer making the inspec-
ton to issue the certificate over his individual
official signature as special inspector Of foreign
steam vessels When no more than one steam
vessel is to be inspected at the same time, two
officers should make the inspection, one OF the
hull and the other OF the boilers and machinery,
in which case both officers will attach their
official signature"
