The Sydney Chamber entertained the delegates in tho Town Hall. There was a brilliant gathering. LONDON, Sept. 17. The “Chronicle” states that the fact that a majority in Sydney favor preference may seem overwhelming until three things are remembered, namely, tho small representation of large. British industrial centres, the preponderating strength of the colonial representation, and the significant neutrality of the chambers' of Sydney, Melbourne, and Adelaide, implying either a division of opinion or no desire to press or force the Motherland’s hands.
