The Federal Treasurer, Sir William Lyne, expects that taking the tariff on the wholo, the reduction of his duties by Parliament will not exceed 3 per cent. With reference to Canada's withdrawal of the mail subsidy, Sir W. Lyne says he does not for a momont think it is on account of (ho Australian tariff. Communications had buoii proceeding on the question of trade reciprocity since the introduction of tha tariff, and Canada had been informed (hat Australia could not negotiate until the tariff was finally disposed of. Negotiations had certainly not been broken off, and so soon as the tariff was completed, they would probably be renowed. He added : — "Canadians must not forget that their tariff is as high, or higher, than ours."
