Herald this afternoon says there is a movement for the laying of a new submarine state owned Atlantic Cable of which Montreal will be one of the Termini. It is Likely the scheme will take such shape that it will be submitted with the necessary plans and reports at a meeting of the Imperial conference to Hela in London next summer. The line would be Tho Atlantic Section of the All red Ca ble of which tha already existing state owned Pacific Cable will be the Pacific Arm. Inter mediate connection across Canada would be made Over the wires of the Canadian Pacific railway. The details which thus fur have reached the can Adian Pacific authorities Are of a somewhat meagre character. It is not Likely that a full exposition of fhe plan will be made before the Imperial con Ference meets. The new Cable route would be farther North than any exist ing Cable the new Cable is to be the reply to the Boycott which has Bee a made of the Pacific Cable by the existing Cable companies and it is expected it will result in the cutting of the Atlantic Cable rate to a Likely ice bound geological Survey party from Ottawa has not been heard from.

Meet at Ottawa today conference of ministers called by maritime Toba represented. Ottawa dec. Will to a conference of provincial ministers Here to Morrow to consider the question of Tho diminishing representation of the maritime provinces in the Federal parliament. The meeting la being held on the suggestion of the new Bruns Wick Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island governments. The last census showed a substantial increase in the population of Quebec and the other provinces. The growth of population in Quebec raised the unit of representation to approximately As a consequence Ontario and the three maritime provinces each lost members. The census next Spring will show u population of considerably above two million for Quebec and the unit of representation is bound to be consider ably above unless a change is made in the British North America act. New Brunswick Nova Scotia and Prince Judward Island will seats in the redistribution which must follow the census. The British North America act can Only be amended by the British House and will Only be done on the application of the Dominion government and with the Assurance that the nine provinces of Canada de sire the change. Want representation restored. What the three maritime province governments want is an amendment declaring that the representation for every province shall be restored to what it was at confederation and shall never fall below that figure. This would give Nova Scotia 19. New Bruns Wick 15, and Prince Edward Island 0 members. At the present there Are 18 Nova Scotia members 13 from new Brunswick and 4 from Prince Edward Island. If the maritime representatives can not to Morrow persuade the other provincial representatives that Tho con federation status should restored they to have it agreed that the representation shall never fall below the present azure. It is doubtful if any Kort of an agreement will be reached at this meeting. Quebec is understood to object to any arrangement declaring that the representation of other provinces shall not decrease while the whole scheme is based on the declaration that the representation of Quebec Hull never increase. British Columbia and Alberta it is understood will not be represented at the conference but Hon. Walter Scott of Saskatchewan and Hon. Messes. Rojers and Campbell of Manitoba who will by Here Are under stood to be not much concerned about the diminishing representation in the Oast As it Only accentuates the growth of the West toward a dominating Posi Tion in Canadian affairs. Estimates of the population indicate that Trie next census will give the four Western provinces about Twenty More members than they now have while East will lose four or five one from Prince Edward Island and one or Ito each from Nova Scotia and new Bruns Wick. The conference to Morrow will take place in a Senate can Unlue room. If there is an agreement to communicated to the Dominion government at once. Preparing for Forest convention. Otts a dec.
