the President that the Attorney General
ought to take steps Immediately to vacate
the lease TO tho bank of the old Custom
House in New York.
What the President said in reply is not
quoted, but after coming from the White
House Mr.. Sulzer said
The bank agreed to pay 3,265 900 for
the Custom House and the Government
agreed 10 pay an annual rental of 1880 800.
AT the present rate OF progress on the new
Custom House il will not be long before
