Bruce Walker, chief Canadian Immigration -agent In Great Britain, In an Interview with The Journal to-day. Mr.

Walker came to Canada from London laat we-k on departmental busineaa. Hrvn tha. aucceas attending the Canadian Immigration proaganda In the Mother Country thla year. Kfforta are being devoted chiefly, ha aald, to promoting Immigration from rural England. Scotland and Ireland.

Tha claaaee eapeclally needed In Can ada are thoae adapted to agricultural purautta and acting, under Imtructlona frenn the department here the Immigration agenta In Great Britain are not paying much attention to the cltlea. but are devoting most of their energies to getting Immlgranta from the rural atctlona.

Mr. Walker Instanced letter which appeared this laat aprlng telling of how Immlgranta had been rhaaed through- the atreeta of Winnipeg by wolvea and declaring that hundreds of Englishmen had been found dead on the prairie in consequence of the severity of the winter. These frequent atatementa aent from Canada libelling the Dominion have been brought to the attention of the minister of Justice, and It la probable that legislation will be Introduced at tha next session of Parliament making It punisnanie offence to wilfully slander the country In the pre of other land.
