'With Cann t;an tie. London, June 15.-(C. A. P.) -- A largo gathering yesterday wit- nessed the launching of the new Canadian cruiser Canada at Vickers -Sons -Maxim's yard at Barrow-in-Furness. Tho christening ceremony was perforiued by Lady Strathcona, Mrs. Howard being un- able to be present owi[1g to a severe cold. A bottle of Canadian wine was used in the christening. Tho principal dimensions of the vessel are: Length between perpen- diculars 200 feet, breadth moulded 25 feet i dept t 1 4 f c t. She has a ram stein and is fitted with two decks, and is armed. with four porn - porn guns, two forward and two aft. She is rigged as a fore and aft schooner. Her speed will be sixteen knots. Canadian Government lnspee- 1 tor Mooney expressed himself very much satisfied with the construction of the vessel. After the launch Lord Strathcona was permitted to descend into the interior. usually this privilege is on- iy accorded to the principal officials of the Admiralty. , At luncheon Mr. Douglas Vickers thanked Lacey Strathcona for per- forming the ceremony, presenting her with a handsome diamond and sap- phire brooch. Lord Strathcona, re- plying for Lady Strathcona, said he hoped that the new cruiser was but a starter of a Canadian fleet. Proposed Sugar Surtax.

Lord Dun- donald's entering into London was veryquiet,and a d that ho felt the then uncertainty of his position was evi- denced by the fact that he wired ahead to this city to make no dis- t play of any kind and to not provide the usual guard of honor.

Council sanctioned by the Governor- General yesterday relieves Lord Durr- donald of his duties as 0.0,C, of the Canadian militia. The Order -in - Council as handed out late last night is as follows: EXTRACT FROM A REPORT OP THE COMMITTEE OF THE HON- ORABLE THD PRIVY COUNCIL APPROVED BY HIS F"XCEI.LENCY THE. GOVERNOR-GENERAL ON THE 14TH DAY Ole JUNE, 1904: The sub -committee of council having had under consideration . certain re- cent public utterances of the Earl of Dundonald, 0.0.0„ on the Canadian militia and a report in relation there- to by the minister of militia, report as follows: "On the 8th day of June, 1904, the attention of the minister of militia was drawn to a despatch in one of the newspapers of Ottawa purport- ing to give a report of a speech made by Lord ] undoneed at a dinner in Montreal in which hd assailed the gov- ernment and particularly the Hon. Mr. Fisher, minister of agriculture, in relation, to their action in militia af- fairs. On the same day the minister of militia addressed a letter to Lord Dundonald calling his attention to the report and enquiring whether it cor- rectly stated his utterances, and the attendant circumstances. To this a reply wars received from Lord Dun- donald admitting the substantial cor- rectness of the report in question. Lord Dundonald's general remarks on what he calls political interference. ate well as those in relations to the particular case, which he mentions indicates on his part a regrettable failure to appreciate the principles oe British constitutional government, Lord Dundonald's recommendation of any gentleman's appointment as an officer of the militia would in itself have no force or effect. et could only become effective atter receiving (1) the approval of the minister of milit'a; (2) the approval of his excellency the governor-general in council. The power of approval on the part of ehcl; of those authorities must of necessity carry with it the right of enquiry and rejection. In the case of members of the cabinet, while all have an equal degree of responsibility in a constitutional sense, yet in the pt•'u' neib'.e gov- tical w'otltilig - ernment in a country of such vast ex- tent as Canada, it is found n"eeeasary to attach a spocini reepensibility to each minister for the public affairs of the province or db trict with wise* he has close political connection, ane with whim- itis colleagues may not be so welt acquainted. Mt. L+'iMber'n Pax]tton. "Mr. Fisher, while sharing with his colleagues that general responsibility alrectey referred to, represents in a particular manner the eastern town- ships of tke Proves( e of Quebec. If, when it was propcsel to forth a new regiment in that diarist. he interests -t himself in the wore: and £'ought to make the organizetlon effective, he was not merely exereisleg a right; he was discharging a duty due the people of the district and to his colleagues in the cabinet, who w.oulti expect Hint to in- form himself of all the facts and :ui- vise them before approval by the cabi- net of the proposed arrangements. Mr. Fisher states that so far as his inter- ference related in any way to politics It was not to give the new regiment a political color, but to guard against that very evil, which he had reason to be•'-• was one of the causes of fail- ure of some previous efforts to main- tain efficient military organizations in the eastern townships. He interfered no:: to have the regiment officered 1,y hix awn particular friends, but to see that capable military men of all poli- tical colors received ar; far as possible equal consideration. That he did not seek to,give his own political color to the regiment is abundantly evident by the fact that of eight names subrnittee In the list, only one was struck out by him, and by the further fact that a majority of the gentlemen of the corps given commissions with his approval are his political opponents. "In the ease of the gentleman par- ticularly mentioned by Lord Deaden - aid as having been objected to, it Inas been shown that he had never been in any way connected with the militia and therefore was not regarded as a suitable person to have the rank of Me or, and that Mr. Fishersher recommend- ed for the place anotherentleman who was also a political opponent, but who was well qualified by military service for a position of command. "It should be added that at the time of dealing with that particular case, as set forth by Lord Dundonald, Mr. Fish- er was not acting merely as a minister specially interesttd in the easteen township affairs, altho such position would have given him an undoubted right to advise; he was acting for and witrt the authority of the minister of militia, who was absent from the city, and therefore his action had all the force and authority of action by the responsible head of the department of militia and defence. In view of these gets It is difficult to reach any other conclusion than that the action taken by Mr. Fisher •tvae entirely within his right and duty as a cabinet minister and entirely In the interest of a none partisan militia service. "It is of importance to observe that the liet from which one name was struck was completed by the approval Of his excellency the governor-general on the 31st of May. At that time the minister of militia had returned to the capital and was In daily attendance In his office, while Lord Dundonald Was In similar attendance in his office in the same building. It Lord Dundonald had any reason to be dissatisfied With the list in rte attended forret, his ob- vious duty Was' to call on the respon- elble minister and invite a discussion of the subject. This he did not do. He made 116 relireeentations whatever til his minister, but proceeded to mention and make his speech attacking the &d - ministration under which he was serv- ing. • 1 incontrlrt*t01 t'ositlon.
