Canada Wants High Joints to Meet
Again

Washington, July 1s.--The interview
with Lord Paancefote im London relative
to the canal and other questions pub
Iished this morning has attracted much
attention officially and generally the SEN
tinents expressed meet with commenda-
ton It is admitted that the interview
very fairly sets out the present status
of the relations between the United States
and England. The reference to the recon-
vention Of the high joint commission next
fall Is taken to indicate q willingness on
the part of the British government to
yield to the Canadian demand for q re-
sumption Of the suspended meetings OF
this body. Our own government had CON-
cluded tnat better results we're promised
by direct negotiations between Secretary
Hay and Lord Pauncefote, but il the Ca
madam government prefers to take up the
threads of the negotiations where they
were dropped by the commissioners two
years ago there will be no objection on
our part as the Canadian government
has been fully advised upon what terms
negotiations might be prohtably contin-
ned.
