A STATE-OWNED CABLE.
Between Canada and England
LONDON, May 22. The "Times" Ottawa correspondent reports that the Canadians believe that the Imperial Conference will settle the question of a State-owned . cable between Canada and the Motherland. Sir Wilfrid Laurier, with the co-opera-tion of Australia and New Zealand, who are interested . equally with Canada, expected to bring the matter to a successful conclusion. The ownership of all the leading cables passing under foreign control makes a strong additional reason for that course.
It is not believed here that the control by the British post office of the foreign-owned cables can be more than a nominal one.
