Aprl 21.—It appears that the negligence of the Collector of the Port of New York in thematter of drawback clals, which have just been proved fraudulent, was greater than was at first supposed. The Col- lector was referce In many of the charges in Commission cases, and lu all of them he certd- fled that the coples of the protests that were sent to the District-Attarnoy were correct ones, ‘This he claims to have done as MATTEK AP HOUTINE, and he probably never saw onc of the original papers, but he retled upon the accuracy or in- tegrity of the clerks who made the coples. It some of these coples were not honestly made, orif aportionof tho protests only bad been copied, the Collector might have unwittinziv certified to what was not correct, With the evident purposs of sscertalnlug just what the Collector’s responsibility in the matter waos, tho Aupropriations Committee asked (len. Curtls, the Special Agent who tade the discov- cry, many questions. From his aunswers to theso, it was cvideiitly hisopinion that a verdfl cation of tho proteats by tho Collector would have required very little labor, and that it {t bad boen done {n oue case the spurivus charace ter of these claims would have been discoverca.
