In a recent Parliamentary discussion
of the proposed Pacific cable between
the Colonies and British Columbia, the
1 light Hon. It. J. Seddon said:
"The position of this great Imperial
and Colonial work Is not of an alto
gether satisfactory character. The
prospects, however, are much more
favourable than they were some little
time ago, for it looked as though Vic
toria and New South Wales were pre
pared to accept the offer made by the
Eastern Extension Company, which
would have prejudiced the construction
of the Pacific cable. I am glad to eay
that these Governments are again In
line with Great Britain, Canada,
Queensland, and New Zealand. This
being the case, there is every reason to
anticipate that the construction of the
j work will soon be put in hand. Since
the matter was last brought under
your notice, a committee of represen
tatives of the colonial and other Gov
ernments interested in the cable met
in London, and I have gone very care
fully into the details, the nature of
which has not been published, the re
port being confidential. From what I
can gather, tenders will soon be called
for by the board appointed by the com
mittee for the manufacture and laying
of the cable. Owing to the increased
cost of copper, guttapercha, etc., it is
estimated that the expense will exceed
the amount calculated upon when this
Parliament passed the Pacific Cable
Act last year, and an amending act to
meet the altered conditions will be nec
essary. Our proportionate share will
not be much, but it will be necessary
for us to be in a position, as contract
ing parties, to fulfil our engagements.
It will not, however, be necessary to
take a vote on the main estimates. At
the same time, I deemed it desirable to
draw attention to this most desirable
undertaking and our responsibilities In
connection therewith. Auckland, (N.
Z.) Paper.

why the leaders think that Kaiaiki is

He thinks as there is no opposition to
him that he w ill get the support of his

It appears that the congressional ac

last Monday night will prove fatal to
that party. Disgust and discourage

It was not until yesterday afternoon
that the leaders of the Independent

them to find that W. J. Coelho of the
P.epubliean party who preceded them

organization there. This, the people
about headquarters say, will lead them
to fight harder.
