AT THE BANQUET TABLE.
(Per Press Association.) Dunedin, December 7. There was no declaration of policy at the Lawrence banquet, and irrespective of Mr. Massey’s reference to Canada’s naval policy, the speeches were of a complimentary order. Mr. .Allen said there were difficulties to bo contended with in Canada, and it was only by time and argument that they could bring even the people ol New Zealand to see what was right in regard to the defence problem. The British nation could never rest satislied till it again had command of the sea. He did not'mean command for aggressive purposes, but that command would permit Britain to carry on the peaceable occupation of trade as between one part of the Km pi re and another.
