SYDNEY

June 15

The Renown1, is timed to enter the harbor at 9 o'clock to-morrow morning, and the official landing at Farm '"Cove is fixed for 11 o'clock. The Roy■•9,l progress through the streets to Governmentv House starts half-an-hour later. Bright weather enabled huntdreds of men, working feverishly, to repair the damage done by rain, and put the final touches to the decorations.

Every precaution will be taken to restrain! th<* crowds and prevent a recurrence of the over-enthusrasm which' interfered with the proceedings in Victoria. The public has been asked to refrain from untoward demonstrations, rushes, arid the throwing of con■fetti and flowers, and to ass rst the big bodies of polil^ and troops in their /•duties of seeing that the programme "is carried out in an orderly manner.

The city :s throriged with immense -crowds. The weather is ideal, with •every promise >of continuing. Trial Illuminations to-right, which were on a magnificent scale, attracted many "thousands. ■ There is every indication "that the Prince's landing, if to-day's "weather cont'nues, will be witnessed ~*by record crowds.
