Reduction Of Consular Salaries.


The consular bureau Of the State Department,
anticipates vigorous objection from the differ
ent American consular officers whose salaries
have been reduced by the appropriation bill
for the fiscal year 1893. Many have already
forwarded animated protests to the department.
These came from consulates in Germany,
France, Venezuela, England, Scotland, Italy,
Sweden, Cnnada and other points. The con-
suls say it will be impossible for them to per-
form the duties required with the money appro-
priated. Tho only recourse they have,
however, is to resign. State Department
officials say the reduction will stop the issuing
Of consular reports, which have proven more
or less valuable to the country. The department
frequently receives requests from chambers Of
commerce, as well as from individuals, for in
formation on certain industries abroad. These
requests are sent to the consular officers for re-
ply. The answers are embodied in Q pamphlet
issued by the State Department and circulated
throughout the United States.

"You remember that II was three days after

POSTAL IMPROVEMENT.

The Universal Postal Union Con-
vention which was signed at Vienna
on July 4, 1891, to take effect on
July /, 1892, contains some features
new to the Postal System OF. the
world, and makes some notifications
of previously accepted and operative
principles. The new features and
the notifications are all considered
and believed TO be in the line of i'm
provement. Among the moditica-
tions may be noted that of the fifth
section of the fifth article of the Con-
vention, which treats of sample
packets of merchandise exchanged
in the mails between countries of the
Postal Union. The maximum of size,
compared with that previously opera
tive, is nearly doubled, while the
weight remains as before. A provi-
sion is also added, authorizing coun-
tries so disposed to "adopt by COM
mon consent, for their reciprocal ex-
changes, limits of weight or size
greater than those fixed by the Con-
vention." Taking advantage of this
option, it has been arranged by the
Administrations of the countries con-
cerned that in the exchange by post
Of sample packages of merchandise
between Great Britain and Hawaii,
and between the United States and
Hawaii, the Convention maximum
size shall be adopted, while increas-
ing the weight from 250 to $50
grammes, or approximately from 8
to II ounces, SO that, according to
postal notice in this issue, on and
after the first day OF July next, all
bona fide sample packets of merchan-
disc which do not exceed II ounces
in weight, II inches in length, 8
inches in breadth, and 4 inches in
! depth may be passed in the mails
between the countries named and
Hawaii. Our importers will naturally
hail this announcement with satisfac-
ton. They presumably make up
their orders largely from samples re.
ceived, and therefore a measure
which aids in the procuring of sam
pies assists in the development OF
| commerce.

ed many a good man.
1t is difficult to attribute the loss
of the game on Saturday to anything
but weak battery; the men in the
field played we'll. The boat race
had occupied the attention of Angus
on days when baseball practice was
necessary, but as the race was for
only one day he probably thought he
could afford to give more time to
preparing for it than for the ball
game with club they were reason
ably sure of defeating. The boys in
the infield guarded their respective
positions very creditably, Percy
Lishman notably so his throwing to
first was as near perfect as such
things can be. In the fourth inning
he caught hot ball while there was
a man at third, putting two men out.
Again in the seventh inning he dis
tinguished himself by making run
ming fly catch and during the inning
retired three men. Chris. Holt also
made good hy catch and added to
the glory already attained by making
a throw from left field to home plate.

gated uniforms somewhat resembled

Mr.. CASTLES EXPLANATION.

EDITOR BULLETIN
Mr.. w. r. Castles explanation in
your paper of yesterdays date is en-
couraglng, marking as it does defer
ence for public opinion, particularly
Hawaiian opinion, that is quite un-
usual with those who think and act
with him. To those of us who know
Hawalians it seems passing strange
that one of Mr. Wlcox's followers
should go to Mr.. Castle, of all men
in this community, TO betray his
leader. However, it may have been
the case, for the unexpected usually
happens. On the street it is under
stood that Mr.. Castle obtained his in
formation about the meetings held by
Col. Ashford and Mr.. Wilcox, and
their followers, from the police
authorities, who, it is said, consulted
Mr.. Castle professionally. This,
however, is only rumor and may be
taken for what il is worth. Certainly
Mr.. Castles motives in accepting a
retainer for the defense are admir-
able, as he states them, and he may
be sure that his "aloha" for the Ha-
waiians is thoroughly understood
and appreciated for all it is worth.
1t is strange that this "aloha," "
about which he prates, should lead
him to carry The information which
he obtained, never mind how, im.
mediately to G. w. Ashford, whom
he, in another sentence, denounces
for outrageous and incendiary talk.
Why not have cautioned his Hawai-
ian informant!
Mr. Castles explanation certainly
does him no credit as a lawyer, nor
does it help him much as philan-
throplst. NATHAN.
