FOUND WANTING.
MR. FISHER MAKES A STATEMEXT,
By Telegraph—Press Association.
Auckland, Last Xight. The delay of six weeks in the returns of exports from the Dominion is to be remedied by the reversion to the former system in which the statistics were compiled by the Customs officers at each port. The centralisation of tlie work introduced at the Xew Year has now been abandoned, according to a statement made by the Minister for Customs this evening. "A new scheme was attempted, and has been found to be unsatisfactory," said Mr. Fisher. "For some weeks past the Statistical Department has been busily engaged in getting back to the original basis, with some amplifications. lam very sorrv that there has been delay, ibut bv August the original system will be restored, and the figures will be supplied with the usual promptness. Tlie returns will not contain more information than in the past." t .
