Friday's meeting of the -I'lrnanj Harbour Board the chairman stated that, in 1913 42 overseas vessels arrived iu Tjmaru, in 1914 47, and for the year 1917 to date nine arrived. The chairman remarked that the decrease showed how the board's revenue was affected. At the lHfit meeting of the Suva (ri.u) Chamber of Commerce one of the speakers, a leading draper, said tho amount' of pillaging that went on in Sydney was enormous. Last year it amounted to over £100,000. The experience in Suva was that cargoes transhipped nt. other ports than Sydney suffered nothing like the samp amount of pillaging, and if the place could be avoided their insurance rates would go down.
