PASSENGER STEAMERS ARRIVE

TOFUA DELAYED. Two overseas passenger steamers, the Tofua from Suva and the Ulimaroa from Sydney, berthed at Auckland this morning. Adverse weather delayed the Tofua and she arrived last night too late to be cleared, and therefore remained in the stream until this morning. The Ulimaroa experienced moderate weather in the Tasraan Sea and arrived to time. The only other overseas vessel which arrived at Auckkland this morning was the tanker Ranella from Borneo. Tomorrow the Canadian Challenger is due from the South for final loading for New York, Boston and Montreal, while expected arrivals on Thursday include the Piako from Liverpool and the tanker Plume from San Francisco.
