Some time ago Secretary Taito in- formed the Canadian Government that it was the desire of this Government that the questions relating to the M. John River be settled by a special commission, and that Senator Hale, oi Maine, would at the next session of Congress present a bill for the crea- tion of such a commission. A few days ago Hugh O'Beine, Charge d'Affaires for Great Britain. informed Secretary Taft that the Can- adian Government would not consent to another commission, and that it thought that the differences could be settled by the present commission. In the meantime Secretary Taft procured a decision from the Attorney-General that the present commission's juris- diction did not extend to the St. John River. The American commission was pro- vided for by Congress in 1902 in the River and Harbor Bill. Its sole, ob. ject, according to the interpretation of Secretary Tait, which has. been upheld in an opinion recently rendered by. the Attorney-General, is to discuss the raising of the levels of the waters on the Great Lakes. The Canadians think that the powers of the commission ex. tend also to the St. John River, which divides Maine and New Brunswick. notably the dammi of the river at certain points and 't'E, maintenance of lost booms by Maine lumbermen. mum, arrived in "nstungton to-day. President Roosevelt, in receiving the Canadian section at noon to-day at the White House. declared Canada should have here at the British Embassy a Can- adian representative, a kind of Charge d'Affaires, who would know thoroughly the Canadian uses and costum-, and who would be in a position to expedite business when the Governments of the adjoining countries have to deal to. gether. The President treated the Can- adian delegates with the utmost cour- tesy and oordiality. The meeting of to-morrow will be of great importance. The Canadian members come to Washington with instructions, to take up the questions pertaining to naviga- tion on the St. John River. (in this, point the l'nitod States Government does not agree with the authorities of the Dominion. and the outcome will probably be that the American mem- bers will refuse to discuss the bit.

These papers show that the swindlers have realized $125,000 from their victims, but this is supposed to be duly a frae. tion of their gains. The firm conducted its business witnout any attempt at eon- cealment in luxurious rooms on the Calle Cuehilleros. They employed ten clerks and kept their accounts in a .~ystematic manner. The business was divided into sections coinciding with the countries where the swindle WW'" worked, which was chiefly by the Spanish prisoner trick. Several counterfeit dyes were found in the office. including those of the State prison at Madrid, the Spanish postal re- partment and the London and Mexico MEN WHO WORKED THE SPANISH PRISONER GAME. Owing partly to the efforts of Earl Heath, Empire Day was celebrated in this country more than in previous years. Besides the Canada Club dinner the Canadian Society gave one, the Duke of Argyle and the Duke of Marlborough being the principal speakers. King Ed. ward spent the day at Aldershot wit- nvssing the manoeuvre. of twenty thou- sand troops. Reports from Gibraltar. Malta. Ber- muda and Australia speak of the day as being observed in a similar fashion. The papers generally emphasize that fact that Empire Day was first originated in Canada. Right Hon. Alfred Lyttelton. Colonial Secretary, described the Canadian Gov- ernment as singularly free from corrup- tion, and mentioned the recent speeches of Sir Wilfrid Laurier as equal to anything in the oratory of the home Parliament. The evolution of the Dom. inion could proceed along two lines - could concentrate or centralize her fed- eration; she could work out her der tiny in partnership with the mother. land, or she might he one of the aggre- gate of independent nations owing al- legiance to one Sovereign. In either case. she. would attain a great place in the world. Lord Strathcona replying. said that Canada would greatly appreciate the pos- tage of newspapers to Canada at re- duced rates. He hoped the French con' vention would be a step toward the un- ion of Newfoundland with Canada and ventured to say that Canadian people were anxious for a closer union with the mother country, and were prepared to give even more substantial prefer- ence than now.

He had that afternoon nay sisted at an unveiling memorial to col- onial troops who had fallen in the late war, which he described as an of-; ficial seal to a magnificent page of Int- l perial history. In his period of office‘ he had seen great prosperity, the de. velopment of wealth and with it a feel- ing of power. ambition and nationality linked with the Imperial feeling. He hardly knew whether the people of Create Britain grasped it all, He hop- ed Great Britain would always hold out the hand of friendship and that little differences between them would never bemme n plaything for party politics.
