IMPERIAL DEFENCE.
Press Association — Electric Telegraph. — Covyright.
London, October 10, Mr. E. Parkin delivered a lecture at Aldershot, last night, on Imperial defence. Baron De Worms, who presided, stated that the Admiralty are selecting a thoroughly competent officer who will start at once to take part in the conference of military commandants of Australia. He expressed a hope that Imperial federation would shortly be established, England being the pioneer. In response to the request of the Victorian Government, Captain A. D. Moore, of the navy, will leave for Australia on the 26th instant, to advise the intercolonial conference which meets at Melbourne next month, to discuss the question of the defence of King George's Sound and Thursday Island.
