Perth, August 2

In the Assembly the Premier tabled the correej on<!ence with the Agent- General in reference to the Eastern Extension Company's proposed Cape cablp. The Agenb-Ueneral considered the term<s favorable to Western Aus tralia. The Premier replied on July 24 that the Government was favorable to the proposals, and would be pre pared to agree to them if it was understood the privilege of collecting and delivering cablegrams would only extend to those frono and to places beyond Australasia, and the cable from Fremantle to Glenelg did not enter into competition with the West Australian land lines from and to the eastern colonies. On July 28 the Agent-General replied that the com pany had agreed to all the Premier's conditions.

A SCGOaSTiOK.—Aa the Ashburton Trot ting Club has been granted two permits this year, it has been suggested that the Ash burton County Racing Club be approached with a view to arranging the Autumn meet iog on the lines of the Christohurch race meetings, viz., a day'e racing, then a trot ting meeting, followed by the fecond day's horse racing. lb is thought by some that tfhifwosjlt! kjeaigood thing for jthe town of ashbureon and the two pluba concerned, as both the racing and trotting would be better attended by the Bporting public.

Ret. Mr Isitt and the Footballers — A DuDedin telegram states that the Rev L. M, Isitt, who is conducting a uno licenso " campaign, said that, coming down in the train with the Kaikorai and Welling ton footballers, he had witnessed a scene of drunkenness and blackguardism that was disgraceful. Four or five were unmistakably under the infljenceof drink at Studhoime Junction. Another telegram, states that the i'cojiballsra oi the Wellington team give the Statement as regards themselves an unquali fied denial. Messrs Galbraith, Kelly, and Coffey, representing the Welling on team, interviewed Mr Isitt, tho result of which was that the latter absolved Wellington from the charges of drunkenness and pro fauity, proniieing to give toe fullest publicity io the deputation's denial. The Secre tary of tho r Wellington Rugby Union has telegraphed to the manager of the Welling ton team in Dunedin, drawing his attention to Mr Isitt's charges of drunkenness against the Wellington and Knikorai teams, statiDg that he has absolute confidence that they do nob refer to the Wellington men, and asking ]jim to gijga them denial.
