The Consular service.
[Cincinnati Commercial

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9-Assistant Sec
rotary Seward is preparing a system for
the reorganization Of the consular
service, which will be submitted to
Congress probably as a part of Score
tary Evart's annual report of the State
Department. It provides for the reduc-
ton Of several consulates to CONNER
cial agencies, and the increase Of
agencies and vice consulates to full
coDsulates. He will also recommend
an increase Of the number of officials
now classed as consular clerks, but
who are now used to fill temporary
vacancies and ordered here and there
as the emergencies of the service re-
quire. His idea is that these offices
should be given to young men for the
purpose of training them for the regu-
lar consular and the minor diplomatic
service. An approach to this system of
training was attempted in the promotion
OF Mr. Dwight Reed, for long time a
