NOT WANTED IN DOMINION
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. A cablegram last week from Sydney stated that in the State Legislature Mr. Bavin's attention had been drawn to a statement that a man convicted at Wellington of an abominable offence had had his sentence suspended to enable him to go to Sydney. Mr. F. J. Rolleston, Minister of Justice, to-day said Mr. Bavin had cabled him in regard to the matter, and as the result of inquiries he had cabled to Mr. Bavin, setting out the facts. There was no stipulation that the man concerned should go to Sydney. He was born in Sydney, where he had relatives whom he was supporting. The facts had been confirmed by the Sydney police, and that being so, New South Wales could not refuse to accept him back on account of conviction in New Zealand.
