THE NEW HEBRIDES.
CONDOMINIUM A FAILURE.
By Telesrapb—PrcES Association—OoDrrlEht Sydney, June 2". The "Sydney Morning Herald" says that the reported negotiations between Sir Edward Grey and 51. Poincare regarding the New Hebrides are a matter of first importance, and it'sincerely hopes the Imporial Government has at last decided to end the Condominium, which has proved an unqualified fnilure. Tho paper concludes:—"The only satisfactory solution would be the cessation of the islands to the British Empire; no other method would be regarded by Australia as removing tho present evils. Cession to I'rance would certainly not do. Quite apart from other considerations, we are frankly apprehensive lest the islands, so near our shores, may becoino populated by people who may be a sourco of danger in the future."
