A poll was taken to-day on a proposal to consolidate the loans of the Oamarn Harbour Board, which has been in financial difficulties since 1894, partly owing to the institution of a differential tariff on the railways, which diverted a large part of the trade of the port. The proposal was to consolidate £137.000 now, and the balance in 1913, the total being £223,000. The poll resulted in the proposal being carried by 2177 votes to 238. The loan is to be secured by a single rate.
