MR WADE'S RETURN.
HIS NEW ZEALAND EXPERIENCES. (By Electric Telegraph—Copyeight./ (Peb Pbess Association.) Received February 5, 10.45 a.m. SYDNEY, Feb. 5. Mr Wade, interviewed on his return, made guarded references to New Zealand affairs. On no-license the general opinion of unprejudiced persons seemed to be that in tho country districts the effect of no-licensc on the general sobriety was most marked. New Zealand was animated by a spirit of confidence in regard to tho financial outlook and the general opinion was that the worst of the financial tightness had passed away. There was strong evidence that the people had been induced to speculate and pay high prices for land, both in the cities and country, but the corner could be said to bo turned, and as long as the prices of produce were reasonably maintained there would bo no fear of financial stress.
Mr Wade was not so cautious, however, over his trout-fishing experiences and came near to being enthusiastic over the blessings New Zealand possesses in her network of trout-stocl*ed streams.
