Commercial Relations"
New York, Nay 2l.-The coming con-

cables the London correspondent of the

by Colonial Secretary Chamberlain and
Sir Wilfrid Laurier on the subject Of the
commercial relations between England
and tn colonies. The liberal newspapers
are already talking of the serious dangers
which threaten the epire and are en-
deavoring to stir up an agitation, with
the object Of inducing the colonial se4'rs-
tarv to leave the imperial Zolverfn in the
pigeon hole, where it was placed q few
years ago. It is toierably certain that
any appeal to adopt system Of prefer
entail trading within ehempire via meet
with vehement opposition Englishmen
are ager for closer union with the
colonies, but the words Commercial re-
lations' frighten them
