IMPERIAL CONFERENCE.

Melbourne, July 6.— In the Legis lative Assembly this afternoon, Mr Deakin, Chief Secretary, made a state mentregardingthe Imperial Conference He emphasised the fact that the delegates had done nothing in any way to bind colonial Parlia ments. They were there purely as a consultative body • The principal result of the conference.was that much better terms were obtained from the Imperial Government with regard to strengthening the Australian squadron than would otherwise , have j been possible. He ■ referred to the ignorance of English statesmen and the Press as to the real feelings of the colonies inasmuch as they were surprised to hear,that the people of Australia really objected to the French occupation of New Hebrides and the deportation of criminals to the Pacific. The delegates told the Imperial Government that the colo nies were so serious in the, .matter

that they -were ready to assume all the expense and responsibility of enforcing their views if permitted. The Imperial Government "gave an assurance of it desire to meet those views, but the delegates,A .remembering the New Guinea 'fiasco, had stated their unbelief in :'. the assurances of the Foreign Office. Mr Deakin concluded by declaring that the Conference had opened widespread interest, in Aus tralian matters.'
