RESERVE FOR RACE SOUGHT. London, June 27. The correspondent of the Times at Berne states that an Australian aboriginal, Anthony Martin Fernando, who >s seeking support for his suggestion that a certain district in North Australia should be reserved for aboriginals, under the supervision of a neutral mandatory Power responsible to Britain, has arrived at that city. He endeavored to interview the Pope, but did not have the necessary letters of introduction.
