QUESTION

Raises the Whole Possibility

NEw YoRK, June 27.-An imperial
conference has just been held at the
Colonial Office, says the Tribune's Lon
don correspondent, and preliminary ar
ranRements have been made for taking
up the question Of oourt apparel Cana
da, Australia and other colonies were
represented, but nothing decisive was
done. This conference is one Of the 80.
quencee 10 the Australian Common
wealth settlement which was arranged
by compromise between Mr.. Chamber
lain and Mr.. Barton and which left Can.
ada and other colonies in an anomalous
position. The question lies on the fringe
Of the whole fabric Of imperial fedora
tion, the wool OF which few English
statesmen understand. Mr.. Chamber
lain and Lord Miner are perhaps the
only two English who have the power
OF fOrecasting the trend OF the
forces Of public opinion throughout the
empire. They know that the time will
bo parliament for the empire In which
the United Kingdom may be outvoted
and which will order customs relations
