LONDON REPRESENTATION.
(Frow Our Special Correspondent.)
WELLINGTON, this day. Little has been heard lately, even in the way of speculation, in regard to the future representation of the Dominion in London- The public appear to be taking it for granted that Mr. Maesey will fill the position of Resident Minister, and the friends of the Prime Minister are taking no trouble to contradict the general assumption. But the story of Sir Francis Bell succeeding Sir Thomas Mackenzie as High Commissioner has been revived, and has obtained additional colour during the last day or two from private sources. Sir Francis is the son of one of New Zealand's most capable representatives in the heart of the Empire and though he lacks the commercial experience of the present occupant of the office his appointment would lx- entirely satisfactory to the business community.
