IMPERIAL TRADE-
London, July 30. Mr Grainger, Agent-General for South Australia, writing in the Nineteenth Century,' suggests the remission of the duties on Australian wines, raisins and currants.
Mr Chamberlain, at Sir M. HicksBeach's request, has undertaken to ask the colonial Premiers if they will withdraw their objection to the publication of the text of the discussion s at the Premier's Conference relative to trade preference. Mr Chamberlain said he supposed that whether Canada would give or withold further preference would depend on Britain's oiler.
London, August 1. Sir William Harcourt, in an article contributed to a newspaper, argues that since the colonies are united to the Motherland in the bonds of brotherhood, pride and affection, Mr Chamberlain's plan to unite them by obligations of interest is superfluous, while the means proposed would be mischievous to the centre of the Empire.
