The official correspondence which has
been received at Ottawa from Trini-
dad shows that the legislature there
has rejected the offer Of Canada for re-
ciprocal trade and adopted the conven-
ton with the United States by vote of

The reason for this is largely due to the
nearness and unlimited market of the
United States compared with the small
business done with Canada, The United
States offers Trinidad reduction of 121a
per cent on cane sugar, asphalt, fresh
fruits and vegetables, while in return
Trinidad places some Al articles ON the

De Negrier May Command Beers.

According to recent reports from Boer
sources there is a steady flow of foreign
volunteers into the Transvaal Hitherto
these Adventures have been attached to
the various commanders. Now, it is said,
they are to be formed into a special legion
with continental officers, and there is a
rumor that the command will be given to
a distinguished French soldier, lately re-
tired, who is now in the Transvaal or is
nearing the end of the journey thither
Presumably the officer referred to is Gen
'eral de Negrier, former member of the
French supreme council of war, who was
removed from the active list last July by
the Marquis de Gallifet as disciplinary
measure during the excitement arising
frop the Dreyfus court martial.
The Telegraph in second edition pub
fishes dispatch from Bloemfontein, dat

A majority of them went northward but
