Our Diplomatic Service.
From the st. Paul Globe.

1t would seem to be an appropriate sea-
sen for Congress to awaken to the import
ance of improving its consular service 1t
is not to be expected that l..is republic can
adopt diplomatic school similar to that of
Great Britain, which really has developed
into an office-holoing aristocracy, but the
United States government can do much in
the direction OF improvement by elIminat-
ing common office seekers from the rolls of
the consular service.

More Pacific Steamships

A Washington dispatch to the San Fran
cisco Chronicle states that capital has beef
offered and preliminary steps are now undel
way for a new fast steamship line from
San Francisco to Manila and Chinese ant
Japanese ports. The vessels will be of tn,
first-class, built under plans which will max,
them naval auxiliaries and entitled to receiv,
mail contracts which will pay handsomely
The only thing which now remains is tht
enactment of legislation which will extenc
the navigation laws of the United State.
over the new Philippine possessions.
Henry T. Scott is one Of the prime movers
in the new combination, and Goodall, Per
kins & Co. will be stockholders in and man
age the new transportation line should the
conditions necessary to its success obtain
Six vessels for the line will be built at tho
Union iron works, and will be above SO0(
tons measurement and will approximate
twenty knots in speed. The proposition SC
far has reached such a stage that all the
money necessary for the new line can be
had, and ships to inaugurate it are obtain
able pending the construction of new yes
sells which will permanently ply between
San Francisco and the orient.
The belief is general now that trade be-
tween Hawaii and the Philippines will be
made under the navigation laws as they al
present exist, which will shut out vessels Of
other nations, and the scarcity Of high. class
ships, such as will be demanded to carry
on Pacific commerce, offers field for invest
ment which New York men are eager to
SEIZE
The postmaster general has now under
consideration the advertising for bids fol
the carrying of mails on the Pacific, and il
is with view to being in position to reach
ONT for this profitable contract at S4 mile
that the new company is being considered at
this time.
Despite the rumors that two new. first
class vessels are under contract for the San
Francisco-Hong Kong trade, it is deemed
certain that before the adjournment of con.
eress enough will be known of the temper
Of the national legislature to permit the or.
ganization Of the company and the inaugural
ton Of the construction of the new YES.

The Builder and Contractor says: There
was slight falling off in the number Of
building permits issued during November as
against the previous month, yet in the ag
gregate the amount involved exceeded it.
This is accounted for by the commencement
of several business buildings. Permits for
the erection of one and two-story residences
are still in demand; at the same time altera-
tions and additions to buildings, which are
usually made during the fall months are
