Newfoua,ilaiti has virtually,pe.sed in- to the p,asession of a few New York mil- lienaires. although the country still re- mains of course, under the flag of Greet Britain. By the passage of the New- foundland Railway Bill by the Legiala- ture. Saturday, a contract is ratified be- tween a New York syndicate and the Newfoundland Government whereby the wealthiest portion if Newfoundland be- comes the absolute property of New York tspitalists. Two million arses of land have been ceded to them in- defeasibly, and these two million acres cover nearly the whole of the •reat serpentine belt, which contains 0 Aper in alms et unlimited quantities. Tht New York syndicate, besides being gu:trairteed an annual subsidy of $180,- 000, have succeeded in laying their hands for all time on the whole of the ascertained mineral regions of the coun- try. It is thought that this movement forebodes ultimate annexation to the United States. The opponents of such a consummation have vii-orottsly oppos- ed the railroad hill, referring cont.emp= .t,onsly to the scheme for permitting the .,lost valuable portion of the country to plass in.o the hands of aliens.
