TROPHIES OF WAR.
CONCENTRATION SUGGESTION. [BY TELEGRAPH.— raESS association.] WELLINGTON. Wednesday. The Minister for Internal Affairs, the Hon. G. W. Russell, stated at a meeting of the Board of Science and Art to-day, that the Imperial Government was not at present allowing war trophies to bo sent to tho Dominion. After the war an allotment would be made. The position in New Zealand was, the Minister said, complicated through Auckland, Christchurch, and Dunedin being disposed to challenge the right of tho Government to concentrate war trophies in a national collection at Wellington. The Dominion Museum was situated in the capital city, and must have priority where there was only one specimen to exhibit.
