BRITISH PARLIAMENTARY PARTY.
9 DEPARTURE FOR ENGLAND. By Tolcsrapli—Press Aoscolntlon—Copyright (Rec. October 4,. 0.25 a.m.) Fremantlo, October 8. The British Parliamentary visitors have sailed by the Marathon, for London, via South Africa. Lord Emm>ctt (Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs), in aii interview, said that they fully realised the inadequacy of the time tlicy had devoted to seeing tho colonies. "We feel that wo havo only touched the fringe of things," he said. "I think that our party was altogether too big and uwioldjy, although managed by the authorities in a wonderful manner, and half a' dozen male members would havo sufficed. Furthor- : more, we should have cut out_ South Africa, and Canada, which ore fairly nc- . cessible from England,_ and devoted tho , extra time to Australia.".
