AUSTRALIA AND CONSCRIPTION.

Referendum Bill Passed.

[Renter's Service to The "Telegraph."]

September 21, 12.20 p.m.

Reuter's Melbourne correspondent telegraphs that the House of Representatives passed the Third Reading of the Conscription Referendum Bill by 47 votes to 12.

An All-Night Sitting.

September 21, 4.45 aïm. Reuter's correspondent at Melbourne says the House of Representatives had so all night sitting debating con- seription. Mr. Hughes said he was determined to kit till the bill was passed. An amendment opposing conscription was defeated by 49 to 12, after a vehement speech by Mr. Hughes denouncing an andemocratic amendment by # secret junta.

According to a message from Perth, in the Assembly the Premier said that if necessary the House could adjourn to enable members to actively participate in the conscription campaiga.

BIG RUSSIAN CAPTURES.

September 21, 8.00 s.m. The "Times"

correspondent in Galicia says that General Stcherlatcheff's army is advancing steadily although confronted. with hoary reinforcements. The Russians are now only a few hundred yards from the Halicz railway station and just across the river" from the town. The seizure of the junction and the railway, is most important gud nakes the capture of the town of secondary importance. Further advances in the north will probably result in the enemy's abandonment of the town. The in- ressant fighting of this army since August 31 has resulted in the capture of 25,000 prisoners, of whom 8,000 are Ger- mane, and 22 guns.
