Mr. Sec- rotary Chamberlain-* has privately pledged himaelf to that effect. His heart la in tho scheme, and he la strong ei.cugh In the Cabinet to carry It out oven if th*c Imperial Oovernment has to provide a disproportionate part of tho subsidy. ( The appointment of a coirmlttco to Inquire into the schema m. at therefore be regarded as a mere form, Intended to satisfy tho few r-fople who distrust Its practicability. Mr. Chamberlain has himself drawn up th* terms of the reference to the committee. They are,: "To consider In all its aspects tho pioposal for laying a telegraphic cable" between British North America and the Colonies of Australasia, and to re port thereon to the Secretary of Stato for tlie Colonlc-H, besides the questions oC route, cost, revenue and other mat- Wrs which will suggest themselves to the committee. Special consideration, or iuld be given to tho question whe- the*. th* cables should be laid by the Government or by a private company, and to the distribution of coat or subsidy nmong tho Governments con- c-jriicd."

Tliu action is taken as an admission that Mr. Hayward, ar,, is canvincod of. his son's guilt. Julia Glng, sister of the murdered woman, has made a claim for tho insurance money, but the insurance people will probably contest payment on the ground that policies were assigned to Hayward.
