AUSTRALIAN CABLES.
[Per Press Association] Melbourne, May 27. The conference between the Protectionist Association and the representatives of local industries affirmed the principle of a minimum wage and eight hours as the duration of a day's labor in order to ensure full benefits of protection. Sydney, May 27. Argument before the full Court on the question of the legality of payment of members of the Legislative Assembly has commenced. The point set up was that the Legislative Assembly was not a continuous body, and payment merely referred to the Assembly which passed the Bili. So far the trend of the judge's remarks has been in the direction that the Assembly is a continuous institution, although its personnel may change. Argument is proceeding.
