EMPIRE DEFENCE.
CANADIAN SCHEME. Received July 13, 10.35 p.m. LONDON, July 13. A contributed article in the "Pall Mall Gazette" states that the Hon. L. P. Brodeur brings to the Imperial Defence Conference a settled scheme for a Canadian navy consisting of five first-class cruisers, ten destroyers and ten toruedoers. Till Canada possesses dockyards and arsenals all orders will be placed in England. The article adds that Canada is opposed to contributing a Dreadnought or making a contribution to the British navy, because she is suspicious that under a Radical or Socialist British Government such contributions would msan no rea 1 increase in the naval strength.
