Cattle-landing.—The engineer reported that he considered it inadvisable to interfere with the . traffic at the Railway Wharf by erecting- a cattle landing there, and suggested that the matter be deferred for a fortnight to allow inquiries to be made.

Eventually it was decided to postpone the matter for a fortnight, to enable Mr. Witheford to make inquiries into the matter.
