' 1 I iiifed Slates Custom House Offi cial in Atlanta —He Talks to it ; Capitol Reporter. y Rumor reached the ears of a C apitol,, repor ter that a prominent official of the United States ( Custom Service was in the city ombusiness of vital importance to Atlanta, as the p'ermancy of : the port here would depend upon the result of :,his official report. The news,man hastened to the Custom House and found the officer in the . person of Mr. J. M. Currie, in the office of Col. Wallace, collector of the port. Mr. Cur : ‘ de clined to make any statement as to the pu pose or result of his visit. f The Capitol reporter has gathered a few "is from other sources. The Cen -! *1 Railroad is the only Jionded II- -Hie <■; U ' ■• ’*'■ ’‘-ght > Atl-wtgi. j a mouths au iff- ' -ad was n’. eEed its b . I the action was the 'j • •’ I -■'» autial report which made its .ue press, first appearing in an Atlan- ■ . uing paper, and for which a local ccflored < . ;u was authority, to the effect that the port was to be discontinued by the government. , ‘ Mr. Currie remarked that the department was j re; to furnish all facilities within its power I \\l< iever any necessity showed itself, and that j- so t’ar as he was able to say there j was ' necessity for a port of entry here am all u ‘pended vpon the action of the local ml*t ( bants, and one or more of the railroads. A ’ ■ > leaving the office of Col. Wallace, the j rclb ter had an interview with Mr. Chamberlin, ;a < ie office of Chamberlin, Johnson A ('o. Said i Mr. Chamberlin: “We have now several thou , sa-nd dollars’ worth of goods in New York city, ' which would have been hereon the 23d of this ! month had there been a bonded line by which thvv could have been forwarded to the Port here, 1 i but as it is they have been delayed at the Cus- ' , tirn House, in New York until we could be noti of the detention, the duties could be remitted 1 -byjnail, and receipted for, and then our oath of '■•ownership forwarded. All this caused delay ; aird. deprived us of the goods when we need them ■ evlry day in our salesroom, to say nothing of ■ an,additional expense of about SBO. This is the . of annoyance and expense we must suffer a.":, dly should the port here remain closed : ' i ually now is. But I think that in one ■ b;k the Air Line, which is the most direct to ■ rk, will give a bond, as the subject is ♦ mder discussion by the directors. Why, i N llace told me that the duties of this one . Jortation of ours would have been enough to > i Lt. running expenses of the custom-house - j ‘a re for twelve mouths. And our importa- ■ . would be some ten or twelve tim-es in I ; mount in the course of a year, , ‘ > there are several other large houses that ! i import equally as much. 1 think the en .f ;<ortation at the port here would amount I to $300,000 per year.
