LONDON, Sept. 2.-Announcement
from. Melbourne that the Prince of
Wales will tour the Commonwealth,
causes some surprise hero. The mes-
sage says the Prince will visit" the
Commonwealth at the conclusion _of
the imperial confer-ence._ This takes
place next Juno, so it is probable that
the visit of His itcyal Hl'gi1ne.°s \viii

give prominence to the speeches ot'
Sir Robert Borden and`the Prince of
Wales at Ottawa. The Daily News re-
'terring to the 1"r0mlcr's speocli at lt‘i l-
day’s lunch says he defined with per-
fect clarity the Axilationship of the
severafmemhers oi' the family of the
British commonwealth. Tho News
proceeds to ooirtout that tho very
fact that the union ot' Einplizeexpres-
ses itself thrr.up;h_ the symbol oi' the
throne, impels all who care for Em-
pire unity to rate the symbol propor-
tionally high “and it is due hero to
recognize tlie~good feeling, freedom
and candor with which thc Prince is
discharging his embolus,” continues
the News. "He has appreciated the
limitations as well as the responsibil-
ities and privile_ges`ol’ his office and
in it field where deviation ro the right
or left would be easy he has kept
witlt sure and uninlteriug instinct to
the middle course."

Mr. king could not see his way
clear to accept the offer. Since
then, however, his candidature for

look more favorably on the pros-

Mr. Carnegie was ever 'tn intimate

assumed he was prompted by sympa-

wished to spare him the anxiety of
any pecuniary burden. Mr. Lloyd
