"Westminster Gazette Lectures ” Him, for' His “inflated

Sentiments.” Says He Meddled.

Mosrnrmr., April 27-A special London cable says: “The Westr`ninster'Ga:/.ette says it hopes Earl Grey is not going to thc Kaiser as a model for the spec hes which he is called upon to nia _ governor- general of Canada, yet we co _ finding his speech at Toronto on Monday istinct- ly ‘Kaiser-igh.' We recognize the difficult- ies which :print attend the composition of those oilicial speeches, but inflation of sentiment ought. to be' scrupulously avoided.

“The remarkepf Earl Grey referred to

by the \VestininstcrGazebte are embodied iii the following extract from is '1`oroiito despatch : ‘His Excellency. after referring to the variety arid siiperiority of the pro diicts of fhgrrpoigiriiion, drew attention to the potentiality of the markets across the Pacific which Canarlii conrriiands, and asked Canadians to reflect that the door to t-hose niarkets aiidtlie ways tlicrcto were kept; open by the mother country and her fleet. Yet'Canada does not con' tribute a single ship or dollar to this Imperial service. .

"His lordship said that he had been

warned by the press that it was not the province ofa governor to interfere, but there were some subjects on which men of all parties were agreed' and to which it was proper for him to refer, and one of these was the hope that the clash of race and creed conflict would never be heard in Canada."

lierc is a scientific problem for wireless

telcgraphy experts to solve. Capt. Peter Fraser, master of the Quebec Steamship Uoiiipiiny's llerniuriiiin, sent il wireless inessuge from that vessel when she was

sink, ur more than half wiiy on her voy- age. The iriessage was addressed to the agents of the line. A. E. Outeriiridge 85 C0., of Lower Broadway. 'l‘iie operator on the ship said that he could get no re-“ .spouse at that distaiice, but Capt. Fraser tolli liliii to send the rncssagc in the hope Liiiit some passing vessel might pick it up.

y l`his was on the outward trip to Ilermirdii, T Yesterday the message came in the

inail from Cleveland. It was complete in every way, but neither the Highland station noi- thc wii'clcss towers at lien- ioperi or liattcras knew anything of it, nor was it lieimi by any passing ship. The operator iii (_7ie\'cliirid states that lic took the nit-ssage in the regular' orfieroi’ business, und that each dot and dash was as perfect ns if it had been sent onlyu. few miles away. The distance between the Berniudiiin at sea and the Cievcliind station is over O00 miles. An unsolved problem in wireless tele-

gropiiy is whether a message follows the curvature of the enrtli with the air or whether it strikes u bei- iiiic tliruugli the earth.

The wireless apparatus of-the Ber-

rnudian is an unusually good one. A 4 o'clock this morning the steamer got lri wireless coniniunlcation with the liighlaiids of Nnveslnlr, then 170 miles away. This breaks all records for that station. The Bernrudian 'stated that slic had lienil winds _anti seas was five hours lateulid would not reach tire Nortlr Rlveruritii this iiftcriiooii.~-N.
