LONDON June 30.-A second ballot on the
amendment of Sir Charles Tupper, Cana
dian high commissioner, to resolution by
Medly to the congress of the chamber of
commerce of the empire resulted to-day in
the defeat of the amendment. At the first
days session Medley offered a resolution
declaring the fiscal union between Great
Britain and the colonies by preferential
duties. based upon protection, would be
politically dangerous and commercially
disastrous, and that an arrangement that
would best conduce to an'intimate CONNER
cial union would be for the self governing
colonies to adopt as closely az circumstances
would permit the non-protective policy of
Great Britain. Sir Charles Tupper pro-
posed an amendment that declared that a
small ditferential duty should be adopted
by Great Britain and the colonies against
foreign imports. When the amendment
came mp Yesterday it was defeated, seventy
nine to thirty-fonr. Sir Charles challenged
the vote and second ballot was taken this
morning. The amendment was again de-
feated, sixty-three to fifty five.

be taken on the bill NATL after both con-
yentions, which meant. he continued, until

canviction that the bill would not be ve-
toed, but signed. Morgan moved to recon-
init the bill to the finance committee as
also the amen ment to Stewards Bubgti-
