UNSATISFACTORY RECRUITING. Sydney, Nov. 26. In the Assembly, Mr. Tlolman, in reply to a question on the recruiting campaign in New South Wales, said it had been, comparatively speaking, a failure, in spite of the fact that every suggested method of getting men had been tried. THE FEDERAL SCHEME. Melbourne, Nov. 2t>. The new Federal recruiting scheme includes campaigns by municipal and shire councils and road boards. RETURNED SOLDIER'S FICTIONS. Melbourne, Nov. 2<i. Senator Long, who was deputed by the Defence Department to inquire into Whitsitt's charges, reports* that they are absolutely without foundation, and in nearly every instance frivolous. He deplores that they were voiced without proper inquiry. (Whitsitt, who alleged mistreatment when wounded, said lie was forced to do sailor's work on board the hospital ship, and when he arrived iwas refused admission to the hospital without an order and told he could sleep in the domain. An inquiry was ordered.)
