FORCE To
Be REDUCED
Number Of Men to
Leave Custom
House.
GUNBOAT

On July 31st a number of changes
are to be made in the force of the
Custom House. These changes are
brought about primarily because of
slack times but change in the char
acter of the vessels visiting this port
is largely responsible for it. Such yes
sells as the Korea, Siberia, and Mongo-
liza require only the same number of
as a smaller vessel would and each of
those large vessels cuts down the num-
Der of smaller vessels calling here and
incidentally the number of men need
ed for guard duty. Few sailing ships
from foreign countries are now visiting
Honolulu, and so the force needed in
the Custom House, according to Uncle
Sans strict business ideas, must be
shaved down.
It is stated that on the last day of
next month three day inspectors, two
night inspectors, and four or five clerks
are to be discharged from the Custom
House. It is not known yet who all
the men are who are to go.
Collector of Customs E. R. StackabIe,
when interviewed concerning the mat
ter yesterday, admitted that some men
were to be dropped from the Custom
House pay roll at the end of July and
said: Owing to the lack of business
and shipping the conditions in this port
are such that we find we have more
men in the Customs service than are
to cope with the business"
