IMPERIAL CONFERENCE.
MOMENTOUS DISCUSSIONS NEXT WEEK.
INDIA'S SURNING QUESTION,
LONDON, June 16. Though there has been no official announcefhent on the subject, the newspapers declarè that it has been definitely decided that Mr. Lloyd George and the Dominions premiers, will not attend the state opening of the Ulster Parliament with the opening of the Tamperial Cabinet already post pored and the Dominions premiers anxices to retum as soon as possible. Allthe energies of the delegates will be absorbed in the momentous discussions next week. Mr. Lloyd George is much stronger as a result of his rest in Wales which he took in order to be secure against the possibility of a break- down, presiding at the sessions as he intends to do daily, M. Meigten, Prime Minister of Canada, has been silen: since his arrival, stating that he must first get in locon with Canadian officials in London and the British authori ties, but the utterances of Messrs. Hughes and Massey indicate that the Anglo-Japmese Alliance, in which Canada is very interested, will te one of the chief topics of the conference, involving as it does, ite whole question of imperial defence and Anglo-American relations, and a "white Empire policy.** On the contrary, the Indian representatives praless indifference to the Alliance, extent as it affects India's defence. This was emphasised by Mahara Catch yesterday and by Mr. Sastri in an interview today, the latter emphatically declaring that the burning question to Icdia was not Empire defence, the Anglo-Japanese Alliance or foreign policy, but equal rights for Indians within the Empire, on the equitable settlemear of which the fature of India might defend
RESOURCES OF, THE CROWN COLONIES.
LONDON, June 16. Presiding at a dinner given by the Corona Club to 300 colonial officials, governors, and fermer governors, Mr. Winston Chuchul dwelt on the great undeveloped resources of the Crown colonies. He referred specially to the magnificent gile of the battleship "Malaya." and her part in the battle of Jutland. He spoke of the great value of personal discussions wherever possible, bat said in the pain those on the spot must decide upon the pecessary action. The Empire could not be governed from Downing Street. The future of the Crown Colonies was bright. He hoped it would be possible to make a consortium of credits between many of the Crown Colonies and secure Joans on a wider basis. Nothing would be lacking on the part of the Colonial Ofice which would show that it was a fellow servant in the same cause with those who were keeping the honour of the Empire unstained.

Nevertheless, the Captain finally con sented to the search but threatened to, report the matter to the British Consul) and ask for gunboats to stop the work of the Government officials there. “As" the Consular Body were notified of tie onder which designated the limits of the present blockade, and were! also informed that as a military pre- cantion, all vessels would be subjected to search for contraband of war, the attitude of this particular Captain is incomprehensible. Captains of vessels flying flags of other mafions have made no objection and in every way, rendered their services to facilitate the officers in the per- formance of their duties Why should & British Steamer find cause for com plaint when the Government here is acting wholly within their rights? If such insults are offered to Chinese officers in performance of their duties, then the blockade should he made even more stringent and no vessels at all allowed to go up the West River. Whether the Captain of the Tai. Ming" recognizes the Government of Kwangtung or not, as that Government is in De Facto control here, it will be advisable for him to respect its regulations."
