LONDON, October 6. The newspapers make a feature of the Sydney welcome to the iice’t.
The ‘Daily Alail’ says the great example which the Commonwealth and New Zealand have set will hear fruit in the future. The ‘ Daily Telegraph ’ says the protection of the outer sens in an Imperial emer-gency-—the one gleam of light through the lowering clouds—is the partial consummation of the Commonwealth's naval ideal.
AN UNINTENTIONAL SLIGHT,
CHIEF JUSTICE OFFENDED,
SYDNEY, October 6. The city and harbor were again illuminated, and there were displays of fireworks and other festivities in honor of the fleet. Largo crowds visited tho ships. There was an unfortunate contretemps at the Town Hall banquet on Saturday. Sir William Cullen, Chief Justice* and Lieutenant-Governor of Now South Wales, had "been away on circuit, and his letter accepting an invitation to ho present apparently miscarried, with the result that his name did not appear on the scat plan. At the eleventh hour it was learned that he would bo present, and a place at the principal guests' table was ticketed for him, but by a further mischance no cover was laid and no chair provided. Before this could be remedied and an explanation made Sir William Cullen left the hall.
