Latter's Trucking Policy
AND POLITELY ASK A NEW EXPERIENCE.
But the Conference with Russia and japan
WIN Go On Notwithstanding Eng
lands UnenyinbIo Discourtesy.

New York, oct IA dispatch to the
Herald from Washington, ID. c.. says
The administration proposes to make
clear to Great Britain the embarass-
ment she has caused this government
by her refusal to participate with
Russia and Japan In the proposed seal
ing conference.
note is now in course Of prepara-
ton at the state department which
will deprecate the withdrawal of the
British government at such a late
hour and call attention to the fact that
the communication Of May 10th which
Secretary Sherman addressed to Lord
Salisbury announced that Russia and
Japan would be invited to take part In
the conference. The British govern
ment has no reasonable ground at this
time FOR refusing to participate when
she mad already accepted an invita-
ton TO take part, knowing that Japan
anu Russia would be represented in the
conference.
1t is also understood that the admin
istration will yield to the inevitable

sentatives to meet those of the United
states. There is no intention. however

The determination to send the note
above referred to followed the receipt
OF an official announcement from Am
bassadur Hay to the effect that Great
Britain had refused to take part in
the conference in view of the repre-
sentatlOn therein which Russia and
Japan would have
The real reason behind Great
Britain's withdrawal is traced by
officials to Canadian interests in the
the sealing industry and the fear Of
the British and Canadian authorities
that the United States, Russia and
Japan, in the majority, win outvote
her representatives on all important
matters which may be considered.

run straight ahead into the burning
timbers. Before they had gone far

THE MEX MAYOR

The city council will, according to
the present outlook, be called upon
again today to fill the aching void that
possesses the office of mayor of Bruins
wick. Three mayoralty elections
within six months Is a boast which
few cities can make but Brunswick is
original III ma y ways, and IN her po-
Htical history particularly
Either Of the two gentlemen whose
names zip The l,ngue Of popular ru-
tive. Col. W. f. kAy, whose boom,
despite his numerous expressions of
declinatiOn, persiste ntly refuses to
down, possesses eminent qualifications
for The office; and Mr.. Owens John
son, the young and prominent attOr-
ney who has gained the confidence of
the people in marked degree, would
make an energetic and able mayor.
Owing TO Colonel Kay's disinclina-
ton to accept 1t IS very probable that
Mr.. Johnson will be selected. His
tenure of the city attorneyship does
not make him ineligible, and if called
that he will meet all demands.
