Press. Association.—Copyright. Bktsbaxe April 25

The Chamber of Commerce adopted a resolution emphatically protesting against ®the exclusion of Brisbane from the Vancouver mail service, declaring that Queensland will lose trade and prestige and have to pay a portion of the subsidy for which New Zealand will reap the benefit. Sydney April 25.

The Herald in urging the importance of maintaining the San Francisco mail service, says by means of the improved service the Union Company are prepared to offer we can .trade with Vancouver and continue to connect with San Francisco without entailing much real difference. In the face of the present volume of trade, if the moral of the suspension of the Oceanic Co. 's service is that we must learn to rely on ourslves in the matter of a Pacific mail service, then wo must help the Union Co. to strengthen the Vancouver line.
