On inquiry lust evening it was ascertained tliat no wireless message liad been, received from the Manuka as to the time of her expected arrival from Sydney to-day. As the vessel did not clear the New South Wales port till' 9 p.m. on Thursday it is reasonable to suppose that she will not mako port till late this afternoon, or early this evening. HIMITANGI IN PORT. At midnight last night the disabled 6tcamer Himitangi (from the Chatham Islands) was three miles off 'Wcllingtoil Heads. As she was only making four knots per hour it was expected that she would, not make port before 2 a.m. The Himitaiigi lost three blades of her propeller at 1.30 p.m. on Saturday, January 1, when leaving Mauukau, for Whangaroa, but was able to proeeod on her way with the remaining blade at about five knots per hour. She arrived at Whangaroa. at 9.30 p.m., and left l'or Wellington direct at 10.45 a.m. on 3r<ihday last. The Ruahine, which arrived at Wellington from Auckland yesterday, imported having spoken, the Himitangi at 5 <1.m., about 55 miles out from Wellington. This morning the Himitangi will bo placed on the Patent Slip for repairs. ALL-BRITISH CREWS. The representations of the British Seamen's Unions against the employment of Chinese on transports have been followed by action in the right direction. . As the result of a conference in London recently the following notice has been issued by the British Admiralty to the owners of all transports, as well as to mercantile marine officers':— "In Admiralty transports crews should be. so far as possible, British or British coloured persons. No other nationalities should be engaged, unless it is found impossible 'without delay to the transport service to secure crews of British and British coloured persons. This rule shall not necessarily apply in tlie/caw of ships which at the time of requisitioning had aboard a. crew of Asiatics signed on at an Asiatic port." MESS-TABLE GOSSIP. Captain J.
