THAT INTERVIEW
HOW IT CAME ABOUT.
AN AUSTRALIAN NARRATIVE
(Received Last Night, 11.5 o'clock.) LONDON, July 27. An Australian in ; London states that he was a member of the party which was breakfasting when Mr Stead called. Mr Fisher did not give leave to be interviewed. He had no idea that Mr Stead was upon that errand, but thought he was going to make the acquaintance of a wellknown Englishman. When he returned to the table he was certainly unaware that he had been interviewed/ "I recognise," the Australian continued, "in several phases fragments of remarks made to us. He concluded his remarks by saying that if the Dominions did not want to be involv* ed.in a British war they should declare their independency, but the meaning given this statement in the interview was consistent with all Mr Fisher's authentic public and private utterances. - It would be fair to follow the Hon. A. Deakin's admirable example and suspend judgment until Mr Fisher can speak for himself."
