New Zealand at tho Esquimalt naval base, Mr Hazen (Minister for Marine) declared he felt humiliated that Canada was unable to place her three Dreadnoughts beside the New Zealand in order to show Canada's real sentiments of loyalty. Canada's opportunity bad now gone, but the Government was fully determined to carry out its naval policy, which had been merely delayed by an unrepresentative Chamber, which thwarted the will of the people. 3lr Mcßride, Mr Hazen, and the Lieu-tenant-Governor entertained Captain Halsey at a private banquet in the evening.
