Off to London.— The Prime Minister, Kt. Hon. M. J. Savage, and his party left Wellington in the Arawa on Saturday night for Loudon to attend the coronation and the Imperial Conference. The Arawa, which was a full ship, also carried the New Zealand cricket team which is to tour England. A crowd of some 3000 gathered to see her departure. On the left above, the Prime Minister is shown in the centre of a number of his supporters who gathered round him when he came on deck before the vessel cast off. To the right is a picture, taken from one of the cranes beside the vessel, showing a portion of the crowd upon the wharf.
