(m trsraD pkzss association.} Received April 15, at 1.15 p.m. Sydsey, April 15. Arrived—W aihora. Hobart, April 15. Arrived, early—Tokomarn. She sailed at 11 a.m. for Wellington. She brings two passengers for Australia and 16 for New Zealand ports. Received April 15, at 2.10 p m. Sydney. April 15. Mr Wilson, M.H.R. for Wellington Suburbs, interviewed, after declaring that he was a strong supporter of the Government, said he ww firmly of opinion that the Ministry must be reconstructed. It had a very strong head, but a very weak tail. He described two members of the Cabinet at least as having such lamentably, notoriously weak mental and political fibre that their political gyrations rendered them a laughing-stock, to the rank and file of the party whose support on a division they obtain but whose personal esteem they fail to possess. The commercial community now possessed confidence in Mr Seddon, which i did not at one time have. It now recognised that though Mr Seddon is a democrat he is extremely cautious as to such branches of his policy as affected the commercial world. In other words he is not quite the ultra-radical he used to be.
