B.--~The - commercial treaties" association of Berlin will publish shortly a memorial entitled "yoncerning the justment of the German-Canadian cial Rela- tions." From #his it appa rs that nu- merous manufacturers for years have maintained businesses in Canada with- out profit in the hape that the tariff conflict would soon settled. It is also shown that the removal of the surtax would alone result in a con- siderable dévelopment of German ex port trade. The advantages to Cana- da of an undemtanding with Germany are unlso exhaustively set forth; mueh that now comes te Germany from Ar- gentina and the United States could be bought from the dominion. The commercial treaties' association now suggest the arrangement between Gérmany and Canada that in return for the remoyal of the surtax on Ger- man goods Germany should grant the Dominion the provisional establish- ment of a German conventional tariff, with a clear recognition of the exist- ing preference in favor of Great Bri- tain.

WILL NOT BE WAR THIS IS THE FEEL FEELING IN THE NEAR EAST. Said Personal Influence Austrian Emperor For Peace--The Vizier of Turkey Also Says There'll- Be No War. Vienna, Dec. of the is H.--Notwithstanding the departure from Flume of two troop-laden steamers, which are re- ported to be bound for Cattaro, and the rumored confirmation of the re- port of a skirmish between Austrian troops bound for Bosnia and a band of Servians two or three days ago, there is a feeling of optimism ac companied by a great rise in prices at the Bourse. This is apparently attributable to the increasing belief that the emperer's personal influence is being exerted in the direction of peace, and the advance of winter, which is daily breoming saverér in the Balkans. There is also a rumor which, "how- ever, is wholly unconfirmed, to the eficet that Austria bas agreed to take over, part of the Ottoman debt as compensation to Turkey for the an- nexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
