The Ottawa conference

Ottawa, July 8- Mr Huddart has submitted to the Conference an outline of the proposal for a fast Atlantic service and an increased Australian service. July 9. At the Conference, Mr Foster (Canada) moved, and Sir H. Wrixon (Victoria) seconded, a resolution— 11 That it is advisable that the colonies and Great Britain should agree upon a Customs tariff favoring trade within the Empire against foreigners, and that before Great Britain agrees, it is advis able to settle the terms of intercolonial reciprocity including the South African Customs Union." The delegates who spoke pressed the importance of reci procity in strengthening the British nation's position. It is proposed that another Congress shall be held in five years' time. It was pointed out that the very fact of the Conference being held strikingly reaffirmed the unity of the Empire. There was no fear of any antagonistic spirit in the colonies. Combination was part of the price that must be paid for the Empire. London, July 8. The " Spectator " thinks the proposal Of the Ottawa Conference for preferen tial trade rates between the colonies and the Mother Country is a dangerous suggestion, which may induce foreigners to retaliate. (Received July 10, 10.20 a m.) Ottawa, July fl The delegates in discussing pre ferential trade recognised the difficulty of England agreeing to it, but they believed if the colonies freely recipro cated the way would be paved for an Imperial trade system. The Conference has passed a resolu tion favoring preferential trade, and the Australian delegates strongly opposed a proposal to ratify a treaty between franco and Canada, as calculated to de prive Australia of a market for their vines i» Canada.

INFLUENZA.

Influenza is an infectious disease, in which catarrh of the respiratory mucous membranes is a marked symp tom. It is developed in epidemic form from timeto time, attacking a large pro portion of the population, and produc ing a marked influence upon the death rate. Since the registration of deaths was systematically undertaken in this country, ( no year has passed in which deaths from influenza have not been recorded; but the disease in its epidemic form has occurred only two or three times. There was an outbreak in 1837 38, again in 184748, and once more in 1889-90 91. Little is known about the causation of the malady; it is highly infectious, and is presumably a germ disease. The symptoms are prostration, with severe frontal head ache, and pains in the back and limbs ; there may be considerable elevation of temperature, and pain in the eyeballs is often a characteristic early symptom. After a short interval the mucous membranes of the respiratory trace be come involved, with sneezing, sore throat, bronchitis, or even pneumonia. The disease is usually at its height on the third day, convalescence is fre quently protracted, and complications are not uncommon. The percentage of deatfcs i 3 small, but so many people »re attacked that not a few fatal cases occur. During epidemics the number of deaths recorded from diseases of the respiratory organs is materially augmented. Adult males are parti cularly liable to be attacked by influ enza, and to suffer severely; but the disease is chiefly fatal in the case of old persons, especially in those who are the subjects of chronic lung mis chief. The treatment is that of febrile maladies generally. The remarkable prostration seems to indicate the desir ability of adopting a liberal regimen. It cannot be too strongly insisted upon I that there is danger in endeavoring to disregard this disease. Many deaths ! have occurred in persons who refuse to "lie up" and adopt reasonable pre cautions.
