The Christchurch Welcome.
CHRISTCHURCH, March 29. A large and representative meeting of citizens decided to accord a public welcome and reception to the members of the British Antarctic expedition; and set up a committee to arrange details. Whilst the committee was discussing preliminaries, Lieut. Adams, one of the members of the Far South party, attended and stated that after Wednesday Lieut. Sbackleton would be the only member of the expedition in Christchurrh. In view of the brief period at their disposal, the committee decided to abandon the proposed reception.
