Address Of the Newfoundland Legislature to
the Queen.
LONDON, May 26.-The address of the
Newfoundland Legislature to the Queen,
protesting against British grants to the
French of the Newfoundland fisheries, has
been received here. The document is
yoluminous and couohed in the strongest
language of any address to a British
sovereign since that of the American Colo
nies. 1t declares that the modus vivendi
means ruin and starvation to 100000 British
subjects and claims that the Home Govern
ment has no legal authority to make such
grants. 1t calls on the Queen to revoke the
acts OF her unpatriotic advisers and says:
" This colony Will be satisfied with
nothing short Of the final removal of every
French lobster factory from the shores Of
Newfoundland, and all means in our
power viii be used to that end. In our
opinion the time has arrived when submis-
sion to such glaring injustice is no longer
possible. This colony must use all the
means in its power to trustrate the designs
of its despolecs.
I've believe we have right and justice on
our side, and such steps as we may have to
take have been forced on Us by foreign ag-
Rression and by the supine acQuiescence

HARRIsON's VIEWS.

The President Not in Favor of Removing the
Duty on Sugar.
New YORK, May ga special to the
Mail and Express from Washington says:
During the past week the President in con-
versation with prominent diplomatic ex-
pressed the opinion that it was q mistake
for Congress to remove the duty from sugar,
when 1t was SO easy to obtain reciprocal
concessions between sugar-growing nations
in favor Of American merchandise. He
also deprecates the feature of the Mckinley
bill which increases the duty on carpet
woods. No one familiar with the views of
the President would be surprised to see
strong message from him on this subject
before the Tariff Bill is disposed Of.
