Sydney Morning Herald Special.
London, May 20.
It is kflow a that the Home Government would approve of a reform in the Victorian Constitution based on the proposals mentioned in Service's election speeches, and also of a similar scheme to settle the difficulty between the two branches of the legislature of New South Wales. Mr Childers, Secretary of State for the War Department, will, it is expected, resign his position on commission. He is now settling the question of colonial defence. The dispatch of the fine arts collection for Melbourne Exhibition is at a standstill owing to the absence of a definite reply from the Melbourne Commission as to the return of the Sydney fiae arts collection. The Hon. Gavin Duffy has declined overtures to offer himself for a seat in Parliament until he has published his history.
