oversça contracts. The deputation asked for the repeal of the clause before any trial had been made. He inclined strongly to the view that the clause would work, and that all require- ments of over-sea contracts would be met. He admitted that the Orient Company had tried white labour, and had given it up, but there were other vessels on which it was employed, and some carried on part of the work in the tropics. It was unfortunate that white men had sometimes got drunk. Something in the re- ligion of some black people prevented them getting drunk; but he did not know that this was an argument against changing that re ligion He was informed that in many cases, where only white labour was employed, there were a considerable number of foreigners. Be had come to the conclusion that it was worth while to try whether Australia could run the services she paid for without black labour. He

Great Britain, he said, would do her utmost to urge the Porte to keep its troops in hand, The Porte was keenly alive to the political
ecessity of repressing military excesses. The tasic was difficult, because of the deliberate
and avowed object of the revolutionary bands, at whatever cost to the general peace, to make the condition of Macedonia so intolerable that there must be some intervention on the part of
Russia or of Austria, or of both.
That was not the policy which Great Britain desired to loster. What she desired was to aid Austria and Russia in introducing the elemen- lary principles of sound government into Mace- donia as the best plan of dealing in the im- mediate future with deep-seated evils,
