Tho result of the inspection of tliu electric tramways by the Public Workw Engineer (Mr. R. W. Holmes} having been of a pati.sfactory nature, not many days will elapse before a commencc-rneiu is made with the service for lho public use. Tho only obstacle at present ifi the lack of ;i su/iieient number of trained molormen, but the work of instructing them is now going on daily, and it is expected that tho service will be inaugurated early next week. Meanwhile, however, nothing has, so far as is known, been dono<in regard to regulating the traffic under the new conditions. With regard to the jn-opohed whuif nl Muritni, Diiy's Buy, at to-day's meeting of the Harbour Board Ml\ Wilford. M.H.H., fistid he luiderstood tlmt coru«p<mdc!ici> had been received ou th'! mbject, the <ft"cct of which was that if i Ihe wharf was erected at the foot of Fa-bum-slroet a piece of land 500 ft (o tho i-oulh of the .suggested .site and a chain j wide would be d 'diciited to lh« Boird by Dr. and Mr>. Muckonzii-, and a jiicco on tht 1 north a cli.iin in length a^d from 66ff to 90ft in witUh would also bo dedicated. As veg.uds tho other projiawd fcito ho nad m> information, lit! thought the oiler of Dr. tuid Mrs. Muckonzie wa.s v very reasonable one. Two members of tho DayVi Bay Distviot llutcpiiycrs' Association \\ero fn nttenduuee to give informal ion if it \ra« desired. Mr. H. Bcauch.unp Mid the matter hud beuii under ooiusidcrnlion by the Wharves and | AlcouiiLs Committee." It hevmed to bo I lho present opinion that of tho two site* the one to the south, at the foot of Fa-buin-.street, wjs the more exposed, and I would also be the wuro raptnsivc. It was i thought tlii-u- would be no ditlicultv in .vocuritig Kind for the site at the foot of j Kiuwo-Htruet. Tlw commit t<o ultiuvuely oaino to the opinion that tlie bi«t thing for tho Bodrd to do would be to inspect both the sites with tho Engineer. They w nnted to make no mistake, but uccuro tho bost position for the wharf. After ! ! home. diacii.s«ion it wnn decided to accept ! lho Hiigge^tion to visit tJio sites, the L'l'.ajnnuii remaiking tlmt ])ohkibly two vi!>it^ would bo required, ono Avhen a north-west wind wa.s blowing, and the | olhcr wile* a Mnithcrly prevailed.
