WANTS MR.. HAMILTON PERMANENTLY

Collector Stranahan said yesterday that he
thought that the change which he has recommended
in the title of the chief OF the law division OF the
Custom House should be made permanent and
the Office removed from the Civil Service list.
1.-The counsel, he said, attends to all the intri-
cate law questions spending all mis- time in the
consi deration of them, and then submits his
cusions to the Collector who has only five minutes
to look the cases over, and approve Of the actions
decided upon. Colonel Phelps was a man Pc
culiary fitted for such work, but he not close
to me. I think the counsel should be a man the
Collector knows and appoints. Mr.. Hamilton I
know we'll and 1 hope that his temporary appoint
ment will be made permanent
Mr. Hamilton took up his new duties Yesterday.
Il like the smell of this office, he said last night.
Il like the look of business that pervades It, And
so far as have seen like the who are in IL
and the way they do their work l do not say that
the system is perfect; that is seldom the case. I
may be able to introduce changes that will
pedite or make more easy the work; but ii is too
soon TO have any very definite ideas the subject
now. Then. of course. much of the work Of this
office is prescribed by law, and that cannot be
changed
