REPORT. ON CONSULATES.
Mr.. Pierce Points Out Some
Needed improvements.

Washington, Nov. 49, Having re-
turned TO the United States from a
tour OF inspection of the consulates of
the United states consulates IN Eng
land, Holland, Belgium, France and
Germany, Third Assistant Secretary OF
State Pierce has submitted to the sec
rotary report on the general situation
as he found II.
In no case, he says, was the consul
forewarned of his arrival. He says
mat on the whole our cOnsulates In
Europe are In excellent condition and
that the service compares favorably
with that OF any other country, but
that many OF our consuls are made
quately compensated.
lie SAYS there Is no little strife
among neishboring consuls for the in
clusion OF territory into their respective
districts, In order to secure notarlal
fees, he result being that In place OF
more harmony, esprit de corps and the
salutary exchange of views between
consuls which should exist, he found
the consuls not only out of harmony
bur hardly having relations with one
another. This, he says, acts preju-
diclally to the interests OF persons for
whose benefit the consuls have oeen
given notarial authority, lie recom-
mends the abolition of compensation 10
the consul BY fees OF whatever sort or
nature. that all fees be covered into
the treasury ANA more adequate sala-
rles be paid consuls.
Mr., Pierce regards as unfortunate the
appointment OIL naturalized American
citizens TO the country Of their origin
In a consular capacity, not alone from
the point OF view of the government TO
whom they are accredited, which sell
dom regards such appointments with
satisfaction. but from the point OF view
of efficiency The employment OF for
eign clerks TO consuls he regards as I'M
wise, as IL is highly probable that such
"A clerk. owing allegiaice to another
government, would find the temptation
to reveal matters which might he or
the highest Importance a strong one IL
inducements were offered him. He sug-
gests that at the rate OF $1,000 and in
some instances somewhat more, we
could fill all these positions with bright
young American citizens 10 they were
encouraged to feel that they had a Tea-
sonable prospect of promotion 10 the
position of consul.
