ish ambassador at Vlfaaliington-——Sir :Ju‘ian Pauncefote. The treat? among lother things provid-d for the introduc- tion free of duty into the United States of Newfoundland fish and mineral ores. The Americans were to have certain commercial privileges in the ports of the colony,‘ and the right to purchase bait. There is P0 doubt but that in the negotiation of ,the treaty the Colonists had the. consent and cooperation of the horns govern- ment. The circumstance that the British Ambassador eflsted Ur. Bond in settling the terms of the 0&- veuticn with Mr. Blaine prous IUD. Mr. Bond returned to Newfoundland to acquaint the lotnl governlentwilb what he had accomplished. and X local government end the pqle COO delighted with the pm’-is or has trade with the Uuiiad SBGQ in “fill most important produclo. In 3052 berlaesMr.Iond was indict‘ |e In-ocaed “I II wfllinfi 3 £1 the arrangements and complete the treaty. In the meantime the Gelcahl Secretary had acquainted the Canadian government with what em in the wind and enclosed a draft of the pro posed treaty. The Canadian govern- ment entered a solemn protest on the ground that such an arrangement would injure Canedian flshernien-— would ?-but them out from the Ameri- can mark.-.t——would deprive Canadians of the chance of getting their fish free into the United States markets in ex- change for -commercial privileges. Lord Knutsfcrd saw the dificulty and endeavored toretrace his steps. He must break faith with Newfoundland or sacrifice Canada. He chose what appeared the lesser of the two evils and broke faith with Newfoundland.

England had consent-rl to allow New

foundland to negotiate an independent agreement with the United States- that agreement had been completed- Blaino and Bond and Panucofote were all satisfied, nothing remained but to formallysign the convention. In this emergency the British vornmout ic- tervened and cancelled the power to ratify the treaty as negotiated. Is it

any wonder -that extreme irritation

should exist, that intense indignation

How- lan’s mission is an exceedingly dificult one and it will be quite a feather in his cap if he succeeds. His chances of success are however exceedingly slim. Lat us glance at the situation i a Ne-.wf iumllanrl.

First there is the French shore dim- culty. In 1635 an arrangement was b--twr;-4 n Eng'a.nd and France whereby the French fishermen were accorded the privilege of fishing

These privileges were recognized in 1713 and suhsrquently by tho treaty of Paris in 1815. The French fishenut-.n were not smritfiz-d with their privileges upon the coa.st—they 8DCf“8CI|t7(I upon the interir‘-r-—-they laid claim to the soil, The.

Last Night’: Meeting.

The Y. M. c. A. Hall was literally.

pacltbd last night to hear the entertain- ment iu aid of the W. C. T. U _ "T. C. James, E9q.. occupied the chair, and after singing by the choir, the lllfihfi was opened by a Scripture reading ’ praier by Rev. Mr. Helml u. _ ieelawis and Ir. innicornbe’e in- etrulmental .fp‘lllowue.d. It was very fine oxocu , is res ,uso to a elsefl lllfihd " one.

ting up the salami, the money would be expended in the city, and he hinted that there would be cunsi-lemble plastering, cte. This brought nun rs.-presenting Conn. Taylor to his leer. He expressed‘ himself as not lltilllg “ ngin the petition” and re- minded Mr. Vampire that he himself was an adept at plastering. However after some discussion the petition was unani- mously rejected, Coun. Taylor to do him justice Voting like the others. The con- clusion arrived at was that as it is bad to sell liquor aoit is also had to give the right to sell to others.

Rev. Mr. Kirby gave the address, treat- ing of the danger of moderate drinking, and comparing the appetite for drink. once develu , to a tamed wild beast, which thong ever so fame was never to be trusted. Flo regarded the respectable, moderate drinker as one of the very greatest enemies of the temperance cause.

The solos by Miss Hamlyu and Miss Earle fully sustained their well merited reputation, and were followed with the closest attention.

Messrs. Fletcher and Knight's instru- mental duet—-a curuot and a clariouet-— was a real treat, and their rendering of “Hard Times,” in response to the encore, was even more acceptable to the audi- @138.

Mr. S. F. Hodgson’s reading was well done, and tha matter of it right to the

Int at this particular time. It was

rom J. B. Finch, and called for men as true to their. country, their province, their city as those Spartans, whom their king dl showed to a contemporary and

A duct and chorus by the chair and National anthem brought the entertain- ment to a close.

now put upon their mettle. They thereupon introduced into the Im- perial Parlisment and passed into law a coercive measure, the object, of which was to override the decision of the Newfoundland courts and to recog- nize the supremacy of the ‘French claims upon the west coast. Not only that, but they passed the measure be- hind the backs of the Colonists—with- out consulting thcm—without even sending them a copy of the bill which they proposed to enact.
