Tbe fact that the Prime Minister had a motion on the order paper to- day to the effect that the House will now sit Wednesday evenings indicat- ed the effort that is being put forth to bring the business of th'e House to a close at the time indicated. above. There seems to be.. a great deal of uncertainty about the plans, both, re- garding Their Majesties,' visit and about when Parliament' will conclude its brie -Mess.

They think •that. the country should raise money sim- ply by the printing press.
