PROSPECTS OF TRADE WITH NEW
ZEALAND.
BRISBANE, January 27.
Mr Gow, the New Zealand trade representative, arrived from Canada by the Moana. He found commercial me"n in Canada very anxious to do business with the possessions under the British flag. The recent depression in America had affected Canadian business a good deal, but he was hopeful that a trade between Canada and New Zealand would be worked «p in the near future. The feeling in Canada against the Commonwealth tariff was still strong, and €he people there had expected far better terms from. Australia. The "All-red" route was being freely discussed by Canadian commercial men, and tihey were hopeful that the service would be brought into operation. The Japanese question was receiving serious attention from the people of Canada, and was one of the chief planks of the Opposition platform in Parliament. It was estimated that 90,000 Japanese were residing in Honolulu, and they were found in. almost every business there.
