Mr Seddon in Sydney.

ORITKKBMS OF HH SPEECH. United Proas Association-By Ktaottrlo Telegraph—Copy rlghti I Sydney, April 21

The Daily Telegraph takes Mr Seddon to task for his lack of know ledge on tbe iuoideoce of preferential tariffs, and says it was true there were i go fiscal difficulties ia the way as far laa New Zealand was concerned, which supplied a reason why the preferential proposal waa so popalar in tb«t oolony. New Zealand's experience of virtual exclusion from Australian trade under the Federal Tariff had, no doubt, proved a sharp education to the colony on the local desirableness of getting better access to British markets if possible, Tbe local motive looms large, and ia visible behind most of Mr Secldon'a many other views. For instance, he advised the Commonwealth not to enter into any protracted cable agree° raent with the Eastern Extension Cable Company. The reason for thla volun tary and seemingly disinterested ex pression of opinion ia that Hew Zea land does not get on well enough with the company. Moreover, ehe ia a partner in the Pacific cable project, one of tbe substantial purposes of which is to keep the coat of cabling; op to a certain height, so as to minimise tbe loss that is to be borne on the the working of the " ail red " cable. He wishes for all British mail services because New Zealand has difficultiet with the American Mail Carrying Company. He fears that the Aus tralian Navy will be a failure, New Zealand being better suited with Im perial naval protection. The Sydney Morning Herald says that the banquet must be regarded not only as a tribute to t«-e remarkable personality of the Premier of New Zealand, but as evidence of blood relationship, There was much that was worthy of serious consideration in Mr Seddon's suggestion that mutual relations for the present should be reciprocity and not reprisal.

THE RIVAL CABLES

Stdnky April 21 Mr Seddon has conferred with Me Barton, the Federal Premier, ia refer ence to c»ble matters. The Eastern Extension Company ask for a twenty years' Mr Seddoa urged that the matter should remain ia stain, quo peuding a discussion on cable and co»nate questions by the Imperial Conference. Mr Beddon feels certain that they had the Extern Extension Company well in hand if the Federal Government realised its position in the matter. The New Zealand Premier is also satisfied that cables can be sent between Sydney and Wellington at no greater charge than a telegram now costs between Sydney ay.d Melbourne.
