THE IMPERIAL CONFERENCE.

Minister Bowel Addresses the Dele
gates on the Work Before Them.
OrrAwA, June @.-The first ses-
sion OF Imperial Conference was
held here to-day. The Hon. Thee.
dore Davies, representing the Ha-
waiian Islands was present. An i'm
preston has prevailed that Mr..
Davies mission to Canada was more
for the purpose Of initiating closer
political than trade relations between
Hawaii and the British empire. To
this Mr.. Davies gave an emphatic
denial. The people OF Hawaii, he
said tonight, want their independ-
ence, and while they all desire to
maintain the most friendly relations
with Great Britain and her colonies,
they would revolt at any attempt to
bring their islands under the British
flag.
At the meeting OF the conference,
the Hon. Mackenzie Bowel was
elected President and Sir Adolphe
Csron vice-President. Both are
members Of the Canadian Cabinet.
In addressing the delegates Mr..
Bowel drew attention to the fact
that while the several Australian
colonies have power, under their re.
spective constitutions, to discrimi-
nate against one another, they have
no power to enter into any preferen.
tial arrangement with any foreign
nation. Canada il bound to observe
and respect the treaties that Great
Britain negotiates with foreign
countries. The British Government,
has l,esn inclined to permit Canals
TO negotiate her own commercial
treaties when they will not coniiic,
with the interests Of the Empire
An effort has been made TO induce
Great Britain to abrogate that sec.
ton OF her treaties with Germany
and other continental powers, which
makes Canada . party to them, un
der the most favored nation clause
but SO far without the success hopec
for.
Nj. Bowel then drew the atten
ton Of the conference to the sevsra
subjects which they would have I,
deal with, including the Australian
Canadian cable, the Copyright law
aud increase III mail facilities. Touch
ing on the trade question he dwell
on the possibility Of a commercial
union bet ween the colonies on tn,
basis Of the tariff policy Of eacl
colony, whether free trade or pro
tective, by establishing diiferentia
rates Of duty on oil products comm,
from such colonies.
The conference to. morrow vii
give preliminary attention to trad,
questions, and on Monday the Pacif,
cable scheme will be laid before tn,
delegates. The Earl OF Jersey, VIII,
comes here to represent the British
Government, evidently intends I,
listen aud not to talk. He will In
form the conference whenever. In hi
opinion, their proposed action nigh
In regarded as an infringement o
encroschment upon the preroXative
of the British Government. II i
beloved that the primary object o
tho conference is to mature q practi
cal scheme for laying q cable In
tween Australia, Honolulu, an,
Canada.

bridge would be swept away but so far as
can be seen no damage has been done except
the washing out of the road and trestle
between the village and the bridge which
will delay travel across the bridge for day
or two. Mr.. E. II. jackson the collector of
tolls at this the Cecil end of the bridge,
moved everything from around his yard
| and made preparation for a general wash
| out, but with the exception OF his nice
| garden of straw berries and vegetable, which
was overlooked with water and spoiled,
he sustained no loss, although his house
was almost surrounded with water. The
telegraph lines suffered some but the line
