SIR. EDWARD BARTON AND SIR. JOHN FORREST. Premier Of the Antipodean Com- monwealth in the City--Talks On Imperial Conference, Mili- tary Defence And Compulsory Arbitration. His asdifienlt matt for the aver- age ol! to realize the full extent of the Pritish Empire. One's indiv idual- ity seems to sink into nothingness up- on attempting to grasp the magnitude of~ this greatest empire "that has been." Canadians have all along con- sidered themselves the most impor- tant spoke in the hub' of the British Ewpire wheel, but Canada is at pre sent entertaining the executive head of a distant land- which: claims alle- giance to the British Empire, floats the Union Jack and performs just as important a function in the: British Empire wheel as Canada. And to-day Kingston was favored by a visit from that personage of prominence Sir Ed- mund Barton, premier of the great and newlyv-born Australian common- wealth, a man whose name is a house hold word the civilized world over by reason of the = part he has played and is playing in the up buitiing of the empire of which all Britishers are justly proud. To-day Sir Edmund Barton and suite, co Jal Barton, Edmund A. Mids Barton: Mr. Flan to! Nin mun, Nir Lady Forrest and Aus arrived in the city from Toronto in the private C.P.R. coach "Lucania," which was run on a sid- ine in the Grand Trunk yards at the doot of Johnston street. The distin: guished party were accompanied from Toronto by Hon. George Ww. Ross, pre-e mie of Ontario, and at the Grand Trunk Junction thesvisitors were wel comed to the city 'hy Mayor, Shaw and Alderman J. B. Walkem. The mayor invited Sir Edmund and party to a drive around the city, and ae Sir Edmund's thanks for the He expressed a de ive to view the Roval Military Colle and Queen's University. In the first nam eo institution Sir John Forrest seem to take a deep interest, asking many questions about "it: his interest was no doubt founded on the fact that in the Australian ministry he holds the portiolio of ministepof mili tin and defence. Sire about the late Principal Grant, whom he met in Australia, and whom he characterized "a wonderful man." Sir John alto made earnest enquiries ahout orain and timber shipment from western points to the "seaboard, and quite interested when informed Kingston played a most impor part in the orain carrving route timber trade. sisting of Barton, ROTY, secre ry John Forrest, tin Chapman, ceived kindness. wl John also asked as was that tant and What Sir Edmund Says. Edmund Barton striking individuality, pleasing mani. "He believes that the vecent colonial conference in London will be productive of much good, and will make for the solivarity of the empire. He said that Canada was the only colony that was not likely to move in the matter of naval defence. Neither will she do anything mere in the way "of «military preparation. think." he said, were all very well satisfied with results of the conference, having to the diffi- culties of joint action, difficulties dic tated: by the difierences in our condi- tions, geography and finances. | think it a most important and most significant gathering, and if as® much jrouress made in cach successive conference, we shal! be doing well for the sofiddrity and strength of the em- pre. *"The conclisions of the point to the adoption of tr those of the self colonies which have not yet that direction. | shall present plan to our legislature on my return.

In Sir Edmimd's opinion, en imperial zollverein was merely a dream. He thought. however, that a preference might ultimately be arrived at be: tween Britain and her colonies. He also expressed the opinion that Can- ada was much in need of a cable ser- vice purely British in sentiment, and not tinctured with American ideas and desires. Asked 'as fo his impressions of Can ada, Sir Edmund replied : "They are extremely favorable. We have been ac- carded the greatest - hospitality and kindness." "You than we are,' John Forrest. "We have made the happy Niscoy- ery." resumed Sir Edmund, "that there is no difference between Canadi- ans and Australians, either in ways of life or tendencies of thought. "Yes, 1 met Sir Wilirid Laurier, in London. In fact, we lived together in same hotel, dined together. and had many a friendly conversation. My impression of Sir Wilfrid Laurier is the 'same as most people who meet him. His is a courtly and eraceful per- sonality. He is a man of high ability and great eloquence, of fine character and charming manner. No Canadian, no métter what his politics can be otherwise than proud of his charac teristics." Continuing, Sir Edmund spoke of the vastness of Ay and the great Viosdbititi before it in the opening. up of the North-West Territories. He said it dvas a surprise to him to learn oi Canada's vast territory. He casual- lv referred to the South Airican war, as a nation 'builder, and mentioned the fact that the returned Australian volunteers had nothing but kina words and praise to offer for the Canadians. Sir Edmund was pleased to learn that the Australians were held in the «ame high esteem hy the Canadians. Speaking of things jn general, Sir Ed- mund iettioned the fact that it was Canadians are move British 'laughingly broke in Sir Perth and a Sons: "Why, said be, "1 come from Sydney, and Sir John's home is in Perth. We almost™eel at honic when we come across such names in Canada," at which sally he and his jolly companion laughed heartily. Sir Rdmund asked wid questions about the antiquity of Kingston, its population, business, growth, ete. He was interested upon learning that Kingston was the home of Sir John Macdonald, whom he spoke of very highly, and that Kingston the ond oldest city in Canada. He was presented by Mayor Shaw with an al- bum containing a sketch of King- <ton's history, with views, ete. also a map of the St. Lawrence route; Thou- sand Island, ete. The party remained in their private coach and will leave au six o'clock to-morrow morning by steamer King- «ton for a trip to Quebec. They look forward with keen interest to the pas sage down the rapids. Cnat With Sir John Forrest.

He is a most af- fable man, ecasy to approach, and more anxious to learn than to im- part knowledge. He is accompanied by Lady Forrest. Sir--John visited Canady teen years avo, and expr sell as amazea at the prog bad been made since that time. was pleased to observe Canada was--devoting her energies to the improvement of ~her trapsporta- tion facilities, In supplementing her magnificent waterways by a network of railways, the Dominion was adopt- ing the very plan that was bound to leat to and future Sir John in laying He had in advance eof sgttlement. acted on this beliin West Australia, and had found that it was always at- tended with vood results, "In regant to defence, quite able to take 'care of said Sir John So was St Sir is of some -fif- sed him- «s which He that greatness, railways |Hecess heliev Australia is herself," Forrests So far as in- ternal defence is concerned, we have no fears of not being able to prote:t ourselves.

Speaking' on the wider subject of im- perial defenees Sir John remarked that there oreat danger that British supremacy of the scas could not be maintained by the mother country alone. The expense would be so. great that Great Britain would not hie able to provide for it.
