THE OPPOSITION PROPOSALS REFUSED BY THE GOVERNMENT.
(By Telegraph.)
Wellington, September 11, 2.35 p.m. The proposals made by the Opposition that the Abolition Bill be proceeded with and fairly considered in Committee, and, as amended, be finally passed without further opposition, in consideration that the Act shall not come into operation until the Governor be moved thereto by an address of both Houses next session have been definitely and absolutely declined by the Government party this morning. The Opposition also held a caucus, but it is believed without coming to any definite decision.
{From a Correspondent)
At the caucus ©f Government supporters, all present were unanimous in their agreement that they “ do not approve of the Opposition’s pro-, posals ” submitted, but are willing to consider any further proposals which may be submitted. They consider that great evil is being inflicted on the country by the procedure of the Opposition. They have left it to the Government to negotiate with the Superintendents and report to the caucus on Monday. The proposals were brought about from a conversation between Sir George Grey and Mr M‘Glashan.
