Quebec would be the western terminus in summer and Halifax in winter. In answer tothe Hon. Mr. Foster, Mr. Fielding said that the temporary loans amount to one million sterling, of which $400,000 was borrowed by the late Government and $600,000 by the present ministry. The late Goveroment had it« money at three per cent. from the Bank of Montreal, London. Mr. Fielding was un- derstood to say that the present Govern ment was paying three and a half percent.

Lonpey, April 18.—The Washington correspoadent of the Times says that -the appcintment of Johan W Poster and C. S. Hgmlin, the retiring assistant secretary of the treasury, to co-operate on behalf of the American treasury departmeatin the fur seal Controversy, seems to indicate the in — mediate re-opening of the vexed Behring Sea question. It is probable that Mr, Foster will propcse an agreement based upon @ new modus vivendi with firm restrictions upon Cauadian activity. The Times commenting editorially upou this despatch, says: ‘The moyement to re- open this question will be ftioted with surpcise and disappointment. Tt appears premature, if not unseemly, to start a diplomatic campaign sixteen mouths before the stipulated time for re-examination has arrived. ‘l’odemand that the award shal! now be setaaid+ in accordance with the contention of the one party tu the contro- versy, Would strike a very serious biow at the principle of arbitration.

It must be remembered that the British Government is a trustee of the rights of the Canadians. Toallowthe rights to be whittled away inthe teeth of the awards will arouse avery natural and justifiable indignation in Canada. The attitude of the United States as to the payment of damages and as to restrictions upon the slaughter of stale on land is not likely to make the Canadians more mild. The German Government will shortly be interpelloted as to its proposed action towards the McKinley tariff. In Commerce as in Hite, merit wins.
