PORT AUGUSTA ARRIVED. The C. and D. liner Port Augusta (Captain I. R. Sawbridge> arrived from New York this morning, and berthed at the Prince's wharf to discharge ISSO tons of cargo. Besides having cargo for Auckland the Port Augusta is also loaded for Southern ports. Her loading ports were Philadelphia and Now York, the steamer clearing from New York on May 15. Panama was passed on May 27, and the voyage resumed from P.alboa on the afternoon of the same day. Pine weather prevailed until passing the Galapagos Islands on May 30, when exceptionally strong south-east trades were encountered, with a. heavy beam sea, causing the'vessel to roll considerably. These conditions continued until June 10, when the Port Augusta passed out of the storm area. Six days later a strong northerly gale was encountered, backing to westerly and southerly on June 17, accompanied by a heavy head sea that reduced speed to about seven knots. The persistent westerly swell continued for the remainder of the voyage, although the wind abated somewhat on the ISth. Qn the 20th it increased again to gale force, and the steamer was labouring In mountainous seas. No improvement took place when a change to north-west was observed on the 23rd, and it was not until reaching the shelter of the land last night that better weather was met with. The continued heavy w-eather delayed arrival by thirty-six hours. Captain Sawbridge has with him :—Mr. G. T. C. Harris, chief officer: Mr. R. C. Carter, second: Mr. C. F. Coat, third ; Mr. C. Oldson, chief engineer; Mr. J. Matherson, second J Mr. T. A Redwood, third; Mr. W. Todd, fourth; Mr. F. W. Harwell, chief steward; Messrs. il. L. Cox and W. E. Scarlett, wireless operators. The Port Augusta last visited Auckland in June. 1922. She is one of the original Commonwealth and Dominion steamers, built in 1900, and is a regular trader to Australia. It is expected that she will leave here at daybreak on Tuesday for Wellington, her next discharging port. The rates of exchange on the cargo for Customs purposes are:—Canada, 447 dollars; United States, 4.37 dollars per £ sterling.
