To Encourage Reciprocity With Great

HALIFAX, N. S., March 19.-Professor
Weldon, one of the most prominent men
in the Conservative ranks in the Canadian
parliament, when asked as to the future
Conservative policy, replied:
To Immediately make overtures to the i'm
perial government for larger trade with the Brit
lsh islands is the party's duty. do not think
the British people appreciate the significance OF
the recent elections. The time has now come
when England must choose between abandoning
Canada or agreeing to an imperial tariff that
will give Canadian products preference in En-
glish markets in return for preference to British
manufacturers in Canadian markets.
OTTAWA, Ont. March 19.-In regard to the
dispatch from Washington City to the eff
feet that the government of British Guiana
declined to enter into reciprocity with
Canada, it may be stated that the govern
ment has received no intimation from
Guiana. 1t is regarded as altogether I'M
likely that the government Of that colony
has yet decided upon reciprocity proposals
from Canada.

mond and Harrison, agents of Parnell, to-
night addressed their first meeting to raise
money for the Parnellites. From !, 800 to
5000 persons attended the meeting, which
was held in Cooper Union. Michael Bres-
lin presided at the meeting. John Dewey
was also on the platform.
O'Kelly in his speech attributed the ne
cessity of an appeal for money to the fact
of Parnell's dispute with the other faction
of the Irish party, and the consequent
tying up of the 500, 900 emergency fund in
Paris. He abjured his hearers to contrib
ute if they wished an independent Irish
party in parliament. Referring to Irish
party differences, he said:
"When the question comes to be settled In
Ireland some facts not known to the public will
be developed, and do not fear that the people
will reject Parnell and his associates"
Redmond and Harrison spoke briefly.
Mention of HeaIy's and McCarthy's names
were greeted with cries of "Judas," and
Misses. Resolutions Endorsing Parnell
were unanimously adopted. Branch No.
5 of the Irish National League turned over
the $500 in its treasury. Other subscrip-
tons were announced. Baskets were
passed around among the people present,

was subsequently made that the collections
of the evening were 81 ,23s, of which S1.43O
