BULGARIANS DUMPED IN SYDNEY.
(By Electric Telesrraph—Copyright.) Per Press Association. SYDNEY, Feb. 10. The State Premier, Mr Wade, states that his attention has beeA drawn to the fact that a number of men have been landed here stranded, and unable to get employment. It seems that the men are of European extraction, and mostly Bulgarians. They were induced by some person or persons to emigrate to New Zealand, and, as far as can be ascertained, had been shipped by German or French lines, but as they are unable to pass the education test, the shipping companies refused to carry them on to the Dominion, and they were left here. More ol them are expected within the next few months. Mr Wade has placed the facts before Mr Deakin, Federal Premier. ' ■ ■
