IMPERIAL CONFERENCE ~ MAY BE ABANDONED {Australia Sees No Need Of It --Prof. Skelton Remains at Geneva. London, Qct. 1.--The Imper- fal Conference, which it was proposed to call in London in October to discuss Imperial co- operation in determination of British foreign policy, will now in all probability not take place. Correspondence has been pass- ing between Downing Street and the Dominions Government for some time, regarding the conference, but it is understood that it will not be convened this "year, and possibly not at all. As regards the other Domin- fons, Canada was willing 'to send representatives, but Prem- ler Bruce, of Australia, after in- timating his willingness to do 80, stated that he could see no good reason for calling such a meeting. In the circumstances Hon, E. M. MacDonald, who was to have been one eof Canada's delegates to the conference, will _ return to Canada after a few weeks' stay in Lomdon, while Senator Dandurand, who was also to have been a delegate will probably sail from Franes "Prof. 'Phkel of. Ki C (ADIANS GERMANY 1S NOW BUYING _ MUCH GOODS FROM CANADA Also Negotiating With Australia For Increased Trade--What Has Resulted From Refusal of Additional British Preference to Dominions. London, Oct. 1.--The Socialists and others who so cheerfully conspir- ed to refuse the Dominions the small measure of additional preference to which the Baldwin Government gave assent at the Imperial Conference last year will soon see the first fruits of their action, the Morning Post's political correspondent says: 'It is unquestionable that Germany is now importing from the British Dominions large quantities of food- stuffs and raw materials which for- merly were obtained from Russia and elsewhere," the Post's political correspondent adds. "Under the Treafy, of Versailles, Germany will be free almost immediately to make commercial treaties with other na- tions. By that instrument her hands up to the present have been tied to some extent." "It is sald in business circles that negotiations are on foot between Germany and Australia with the ob.' ject of increasing Germany's con- sumption of products from the! commonwealth, and making Austra.' lia a better market for German! manufactures. 2 "Canada is finding an excellént] customer in Germany for her ex- ports, and the other Dominions, not uhnaturally, may consider, as does Australia, that as Great Britain has refused Imperial preference, she must look elsewhere for trade. i "In 1898, at the time of the Ger nan-Canadian tariff war, there were) negotiations with Germany for al treaty between the two countries, but nothing came of the negotia- tions. In the altered circumstances! of today, business men in Great Bri-! tain are wondering whether these negotiations may not 'be resumed."

EXPLANATION GIVEN NOT SATISFACTORY Qeneral Feeling Is That The Sedition Case Was Badly Bungled.: London, Oct. 1.--Critics who are not disposed to be unusnally harsh on the present zdministration do- not hesitate to describe the explan- tion given in the House of Com- mons yestérday by Sir Patrick Hast- ings, attorhey-general, for the drop- ping of the prosecutipn of J. R: Campbell, editor of the communist paper, a workers' weekly, on a charge of sedifion as entirely unsat- isfactory. Sir Patrick Hastines' statement gave evidence of having been prepared with great care, but the genéral comment on it is that it did not clear the air in connection with the most disagreeable impres- sion over the abandonment of the prosecution. There is a general feel- ing that the whole matter was badly bungled. Papers for Dawes Loan. Berlin, Oct. 1.--Finance Minister Luther is in London to sign final agreements for the Dawes plan loan.

As a leader he has a monopoly of such splendid gatherings and particularly 80 in the city of Ottawa where all leaders dally are observed.
