disputes,

If Sir Julian Pauncefote’s scheme or any other should receive general accept- ance the Alaska question would be out of the way and the United States and Canada might be able to go on with the discussion of other sutj-cts on which it was ap~ nounced substantial progress bad been made,

Sie Charles mentioned the statement of the New York Sun tha: he as the Leader of the Opposition was a great obsta-leto the agreement, as the Canadian Commire sioners were afraid to offer a compromiees lest Canadian feeling should be stirred up sgainst them.

Sir Charles Tupper said that on the contrary he was disposed to do all he could to assist the negotiations and make things eaey for the Government.

He now euggeste? that as the Alaska affair was likely to be settied out of court that the Government should deyote its evergies to preparation for the negotiations and sbould go to Quebec thoroughly equip- ped for dealing with all the remaining sub- jects of controversy.

To that end he suggested\th at the redis- tribution bill and other controversial sub- jects be withdrawn and the work of the session be closed as svon as possible.

Sir Wilfrid Laurier said that there was nothing stronger in his declaration about Alaska than he had said on previous occasions. He hoped that this matter might be withdraws from controversy 80 the pegotiations could go on

Doubtless the New York Su was wrong in imputing to Sir Charles Tupper any desire to wake the negotiations a failure- ‘Lhe premier did not see the necessity fot withdrawing the redistribution bill, which was intended tobe a fair measure. if it was pot cothe Governmeat would consent to the necessary amendments and in any case the while matter could be fully dis- cuseed in a few days. However in deference to Sir Charles’ position in his own party and in the country he ceuld net refuse to consider his proposttion and would discuss the matter with his colleagues.

The otber discussion arose over the Grand ‘l'runk strike.

Sackvitte, N.B.,May 29—The closiog exercises are in progress. On Friday the | Art Department of tbe Ladies College was. open. The exhibit was very fine ; draw- |

A large number of visitors are here, in- cluding several from the Island.

More Soldiers Needed.

Mania, May 27.—The events of the last week have emphasized the need of a much larger army bere, without which according to the best authorities in Manila, it would he attempting the impossible to expect to establish American supremany in the Philippine I-lands. The inadequacy of the American forces is ssid to be respon- sible for the large total ‘oss in the number of small encouaters, without materia] res eults as a compenration. Most of the fighting has been in territory woich the Americanos had swept, but have been coro~ pelled to abandon becawse they could not = spare troops to hold it. MacArthur and Lawton heid two impor- taut lines of communication and commerce. The railroad to San Fernandino and the Rio Grande river,but much of the country they have swepr inciuding scores of the simaller towns anc come of the larger ones have been left uncovered simply for want of men to hold them and the insurgents have returned and are occupying the towns the Americans avandoord, and are Camp- ing in the jungles and woods outside others on the watch for chaoces to har- rass the garrieon an attack scouting parties or detached companies with greater force. Thisis a kind of warfare they perfer to regular battles. The insurgent generals take the loss of arms more to heart shan they do the loss of men.

Auzany, N. Y., May 27.—The Legisla- ture appropriated $75,000 to celebrate the home-comiog of Admiral Dewey. This is in addition to the $150,000 already ap~ propriated by New York City. The state

Canada and the States.

Lexpow, Mav 27.—The foreign offire Cflisinin confirm the stacemeuts made by the New York correspondent et the Lundon Times to the effect tuat the negotiations with the Caaatian government on the sutject of Alaska hes reached sp almost hopeless stage, owing to the iesistance of

Alaska, which appareatly precludes any agreement being reached on the subject between the American and Canadian high commissioners. The evening sewspapers bere reproduced the New York

despatch, with comment generally regret~ ing the situation, but objecting to the con- clusion that Canada is blameable. The Globe says: “The Canediane would be far lese patriotic than they are if they vielded to what they con-ider to be an uns just and undefensib!e demand for the sake of the establishment of more friendly re~ lations with their big neighbor.” Continr= ing the Giobe remarke that the Times, ly publishing ite correepoodent’s unjadici«: summing up, bas adopted the sur st way to inflame public opivion on both sides of the Atlantic.

The Wesimiuster Gazette says: “We certainly hope a better face can be put on things, so far a8 we are concerced, but the deadlock seems very serious.”

The St. James Gazette thinks Ameri- can politics are playing #n important part in the situation and says: “Tbe pepabli~ | cans ave disposed toa friendly arrangement with Enylaod, but it must be on terms so | favors: ie to America that the democrats | wili bave uo cause for complaint.
