A good deal of inconvenience has been jn tho put by tli© fact tJba-t co&stal steamers from the South have almost invariably arrived almost fully laden, and leaving very little space for Wellington car S° and transhipments for northern ports (says Tuesday's Wellington ".fost"). Frequently, by reason of this, cargo for northern' ports discharged here from Home steamers gets piled up, and causes considerable congestion. The pressure is being relieved to some extent this week by the Kokiri loading for tho north. Tho trouble being one which concerns local as well os northern consignees, the council of' the Wellington Chamber of Commerce has decided to watch the eoTirse ot evente with a. view to making represents, tions in tho proper quarter should the position again became acute.
