stopped all agitation In order TO promote,
so far as the Conservative party could, the
settlement of all these questions. On this
matter Canada stands together as one man.
II is not a question OF party"
And what Is the Canadian sentiment
toward the United States?'
II am able to say this. that while previous
to the outbreak of the Spanish American
war there was an unfriendly feeling in the
United States toward Great Britain and
Canada. there has always been, as there is
now. the most friendly feeling on the part
of Great Britain. as well Canada. toward
the United States and desire TO have the
two countries. so close geographically.
placed commercially. politically and socially
on the most cordial footing The party I
represent has always shown this desire. That
was shown by the treaty of 1871, when Sir
John Macdonald was one of the high COM
missioners for the settlement of the Ala
hama claims and questions affecting Cam
ada. Again. recall the attempted treaty of
1888 when Joseph Chamberlain and / were
commissioners. That treaty, which was de-
signed to settle the Atlantic fisheries ques-
ton. was unanimously signed and unani-
mously ratified by the House OF Commons
but when sent by President Cleveland TO the
United States Senate was rejected by that
body"

HAS FLED FROM SAMOA
JUSTICE CHAMBERS AND FAMILY AR
RIVE IN SAN FRANCISCO.
Dissatisfied with Weak support of the
capped by German Instructions.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2s-Chief Justice
w. l. Chambers. of Samoa, arrived here
to-day on the steamer Moana, accompanied
by his family. He Is on four months
leave of absence, but says his business in
the United States Is of such nature he
will probably not return to Apia. In an in
terview Mr.. Chambers said: "AI is now
quiet in Samoa, but cannot answer for the
future. Both Mataafa and Malietoa affect
TO be satisfied with the present arrangement
which abolishes the Office of King and vests
the responsibility of government in the con-
suls Of the three powers. l feel sure Malie-
toa is sincere in this Though fairly elected
and after election accepting the kingship,
he never had ambitions in that direction. AS
soon as the commission arrived he proposed
TO resign, a spirit which later proved to be
in accordance with the plans of the COM
missioners. and I have every reason to be-
lieve he will live up TO his bargain. Mataafa
Is ambitious. For many years he has thirst
ed for power and will not be so easily sat
isfied- AT the same time he is man of
exceptional ability, Is shrewd, and / have
never thought the interests of the natives
would especially suffer In his hands. Yes,
my decision has been sustained by the COM
mission and IL has published the fact in
proclamation.
with respect to the future I can say
little. There is the problem In its work
the commission has endeavored to eliminate
from the original arrangement all the fea-
lures that have appeared faulty or weak
leaving nothing in their places. What will
rob the whole document of proper effective
ness Is the trfpartite treaty under which 1t
viii have to operate. am sure no govern
ment In Samoa will succeed under such an
arrangement. The sooner the powers see
this and formulate some correction, the bet
ter for all concerned"
Judge, Chambers said he had finished up
all OF the cases TO come before the court
this summer. The commission Is empow-
cred TO appoint a chief justice ad interim
to act in case anything arises before a per-
manent appointment Is made. Up to the
time Mr. Chambers left the commission
had not decided on the new man.
