Australian Union Receives Heavy
Blow.

vloroR1A, B. c., May lion April
%, two days before the steamer
Aorangi sailed, conference OF the
Premier OF the Australian colonies
was held at Melbourne to discuss
the amendments to the common
wealths BILL" which has for its OBJ
ject the federation OF the colonies,
proposed by Hon. Joseph Chamber
lain, Imperial Secretary for the
Colonies. The result Of the confer
euce was heavy blow to the cause
of Australian union, for three cut OF
five Premiers present refused to
accept the amendments and would
not allow of any alteration to the
measure.
This action tends TO defeat the
union for which the Imperial FEEDER
stionists have been striving SD long.
The Premiers throw the blanc for
the defeat OF the project upon the
Imperial Government. The prnci-
pal amendment suggested by Cham
berlain is to the clause in tho bill
which restricts the right of appeal
to the Privy Council OF Britain. TIE
Imperial Government strongly OBJ
jecls to this clause, aud the maj ority
OF the Australian Premiers wish the
rights Of appeal restricted aud the
decisions of the Supreme Court of
United Australia made the court of
last resort.
