LAURIER BALKs AT COALITION
Leader of Canadian Opposition Fails to
Agree on Joint Ministry.

OTTAWA, Ont, June 5. - Premier
Borden and Sir Wilfrcd Laurier,
leader of the opposition, appear to have
failed to reach an agreement for the
formation of a coalition ministry rep
resentative of the two parties in par
lament. Coalition was proposed 10y
the premier for the purpose of bring
ing support to the bill for compulsorv
military service to furnish reinforce.
uents for the 100000 Canadians at The
front.
Great hostility to the compulsory
service measure has developed in Quebec
and in Canadian organized labor circles
Considerable dissatisfaction also has
been expressed in the agricultural dis
tricts. These conditions are believed to
have led Sir Wilfred finally 10 demul
from the proposal that he bring his fol
lowers to unite with the conservative
party which they now oppose. The rail
way, banking. manufacturing and othe,
large interests of the country have
strongly supported coalition.
The opposition leader called on the
premier and is understood TO have ex
pressed his regret that he could not ioir
with him in the coalition offered. The
prime minister has called twice on ST
Alfred i'll the hope of inducing a moditca
tion of views but he is understood t.
/ have failed and that there viii be
| formal statements in Parliament TODAY
/ by the two leaders.
! There is intimation that the mex
move contemplated is for the prime min
lister to 90 over Sir Wilfrid s head t,
some of his Liberal followers with al
invitation to enter the Borden admin
istration which would then be terme,
a union government. An effort will b
made to get the compulsory service bill
through Parliament with the Conserva
! tive and Liberal votes which the Pre-
mler believes he can command.
