REDUCTION OF CUSTOMS
 OFFICERS IN STATE. Streak Of Republican Economy Would Consolidate Five Offices Into One.

Democrats who may have contem plated the change in the patronage anent the custom houses of the state will be interested in a despatch from Washington, the author of which pro fesses to have information that there is to be but one custom officer for the entire state, instead of five. as now. The plan is now under consideration by President Taft and the treasury of ficiafs
 The five collectors now are at Bridgeport, Hartford. New Haven, New London and Stonington The plan contempIates the establishment of one main collectors office, probably at Bridgeport or New Haven, and the placing of the present collectors of fees at the other four and possibly more ports in charge of deputy col lectors The extension Of this consoli- dation plan to the entire country, it is estimated. is to bring about saving Of about s1,ooo,ooo year
 The plan for the consolidation started with the democratic majority in the house. During the session of congress before the last election, when the democrats wanted to estabf an economy record, the democratic ma jority in the house passed legislation directing the president to bring about a reorganization and consolidation of the custom house offices and after fight the legislation was accepted by the senate and became law.
 Take Connecticut as an example. If the reorganization plan goes through the democrats will have only one GUS toms collectorship to award instead of five.
 Because of the protests against the plan already outlined, President Taft is likely to let the whole matter go over until after March 1. when Wood row Wilson of New Jersey will have to struggle with the problem.
 Democratic members of the house who think economy above patronage are talking about taking some move that will compel MT Taft to make the reorganization or the whole scheme will be dropped. That would relieve MT. Wilson from the problem and would put the blame for failing to bring about economy up to MT. Taft.
