AND THE PEACE CENTENARY. CANADA AND THE STATES. (Received Last Night, 5.5 o'clock.) NEW YORK, December 14. Tho Right Hon. James Bryce, the retiring Uritis.h Ambassador, speaking at a banquet tendered in his honour, referred to the proposal to celebrate the Peace Centenary. He said it 1 would be better to celebrate the wisdom by which wars we're ended, rather than the want of skill and wisdom by which wars were made possible. 'Mr Bryce said he had nothing whatever to do with the Canadian reciprocity movement, excepting to act merely as an intermediary. The questions involved were entirely for the United States and Canadian Governments to settle. The refusal of Canada to enter into an agreement, could not be regarded as a mark of unfriendliness. Canada merely .considered that the bargain was not sufficiently good. All train'";. lie said, ought to be involved in the. proposed celebration of the Peace Centenary, in order to provide an object lesson for the world.
