Vancouver, b. c., Aug. 13.-Postmas-
:er General Ward of New Zealand has
instructed his government that the eX-
pected additional subsidy from Great
Britain to the Canadian Australian line
would not be forthcoming. Arnold
Morley. the British postmaster gen

British government was to maintain.
In the utmost possible efficiency, the
service via Suez. on account of British
interests in the east and India being
paramount to all others. The postmas-
ter general was fighting against any
attempt to substitute or aid the Cana
dian-Australian line between Nancou-
yer and Australia, for n reason. be-
cause the Canadians had one to other
members of the cabinet without con-
sulting him,
New Zealand and Canada were
pledged to give certain aid to a Pacific
cable provided The British government
gave he aid expected. but financial
aid from the British government is by
no means certain. 1t is feared by those
favoring the Canadian cable that Aud
ley Coutes, the head of the big French
syndicate, will surely lay a cable be-
tween San Francisco and Australia via
Honolulu.
A free trade treaty is about CONSUME
mated between Canada and New Zeal

respect to many classes of natural pro-
ducts and manufactures, but on a few
lines there are ad valorem duties of 10
to 20 per cent. One of the chief items
Is wool, of which Canada imported from
New Zealand last yea upward of 81
600. 900 pounds. SUI the remission of
this import means a very considerable
gain. Among the other line dealt with
are lumber. flour, fish. flax. machinery.
tools and implements, furniture, etc.
