r Messrs Richardson and Co.’s Rum s arrived here at 1.30 yesterday al'ter- | noon. Sho loft Napier at 2 p.m. on l • .’ednesday, and after rounding Port- | land Island, ran into heavy weather ; a nd sea. Captain Peterson directed Ins vessel for Whangawehi, where they ;• anchored for the night. Another start was made at 10.30 yesterday morning, and Gisborne was reached as above. % The Ruru brings a cargo consisting of posts, timber, and general for various I consignees. After loading 175 bales of I wool and a quantity of tallow for transhipment to the New Zealand Shipping f Co.’s Otaki, she will get away for Nap- ? ier on this afternoon’s tide about 2 I. o’clock. She will take a southern mail. | The U.S.S. Co.’s Wanaka arrived l from south early yesterday morning. | An attempt was made to lighter the cargo, but owing to the rough weather I the lighters broke avav, and the Wan- | a ka left for Auckland during the morns' inrr after having discharged only about I a 'third of her cargo. Tho remainder | will he transhipped at Auckland. | ' The U.S.S. Co.’s Squall arrived at I Tologa Bay early yesterday., morning, f She had to shelter there, and will not f arrive here till this afternoon, return- | ing to Auckland to : morrow. { To-morrow the U.S.S. Co.’s Moura | arrives from south, and proceeds during I the morning to Auckland, where a | transhipment will be made to the : Mokoia for Sydney. T 1: The gyroscope compass is to he mv troduceu into all the vessels of the | German Imperial navy, experiments - made therewith for a number of months f having testified to its superior advan- | tages over the old magnetic instrument. It is doubtful whether tho long-looked-I for wharf workers’ baths, which the Wellington Harbor Board decided some | months ago should be erected, will be | built in time for use during the com- ! in" summer. The fire which destroyed ;1 the Board’s J slied is responsible for ? the delav, spaces suitable for establisli- : ing the baths being now used for stor- : ing goods which otherwise would have j| been placed in J shed. Until this stole jf is rebuilt there is little hope of tho 4 baths being provided.
