London April 1.-THE colonial
conference, which began on the 18th
inst, is fairly under way, and the
ment is found to be of great profit
to all concerned. The coming Of
General Botha solely to convince
Great Britain of the loyalty of the
South Africa Dutch, is considered
significant. The Canadians are great
ly pleased that Sir Wilfrid Laurier.
premier To the Dominion overcame
his great reluctance to come, TO ac-
complish which he had to overcome
some grave difficulties, and come
over to mingle I'm the debates Sir
Wilfrid Laurier Is very popular and
his voice is an eloquent one.
The most thorny question is that
of imperial defense, on which greatly
contradictory opinions are held The
inherent difficulty Of the problem will
be to draw the distinction between
Great Britain's position as Euro
pean power and as the mother coun-
try of great colonial empire. Thus.
II VIII be argued, Great Britain could
not expect the colonies to bind them
selves To assist her in any European
war I'm which they We're not concern
ed, whilst at the same time under
the existing circumstances and con
dlJionS, any colony could embrOii
Great Britain in war without incur
ring any but the moral obligation to-
come 20 her rescue. The idea is To
endeayOr If possible to arrive at some
agreement OF alliance insuring CON
sutation and cooperation in any
conflict arising from causes outside
of purely European politics, all par
ties thereto contributing men and
money for "a common defense upon "A
population and revenue basis.
DR. jameson intended to propose
the organization OF some plan where
by contributions from each colony
should be equitably fixed on the con-
dition the colonies be represented up
on the imperial council at which
questions concerning the peace of
the empire shall be discussed. Sir
Joseph Ward, Of New Zealand favors

buttons To the imperial defense Aus

QUIET TIMES IN NEW
YORK REAL ESTATE

New York, April l7.-There is no
mistake about 1t that New York is
having dull times in its real estate
market. According to many real es-
tate brokers prices are at a level that
makes IL difficult to find buyers, In
spite of the fine returns that realty
Is bringing in. The condition of the
money market, while better than "a
month ago. is still unsatisfactory, and
practically prohibitive of operation
on large scale. But there Is no
weakening Of prices except In few
cases where investors have been hit
cash needed to strengthen their po-
sition. The events of last month
demonstrated that the superstition OF
realty not being a quick asset is un-
founded.

approaching meeting with King Vic

much comment in the German

An article in the Cologne Gazette,

from Berlin. The writer says that
public opinion in Germany sees in
King Edwards course an attempt TO

. actions, they do some tall wig .
. Cling and squirming, They get .

. successfully for a few months. .
. Danny has already begun train .
