Tli© Eastern Extension Cable Company's steamer Recorder has re-equipped herself with coal and provisions, and is ready to «o oceanwards to pick up the Sydney end of the cable, which was broken about three hundred miles from Nelson. The weather, however, is unfavourable, and the vessel is waiting for the elements to abate their fury. The value of the pastoral products shipped ifrom Poverty Bay during the year ending Saturday last was about three-quarters of a million pounds. Mr. Jas. H. Merrio has been appointed assistant secretary to the New Zealand Rugby Union, Mr. E. Wylie having consented to retain the office of hon. secretary. The poll in connection with the City Councils loan proposals will be taken on Wednesday week ,the 18th inst. The detectives yesterday effected an entrance to certain premises in Cubastreet, and found in a room articles used in the game of two-up. It is probable that prosecutions will- follow, In connection with the proposed municipal loan of £100,000 for electric lighting purposes, and the Mayor's statement in connection therewith at the meeting of ratepayers on Wednesday evjening, we have approached the official representative of the Electrical Syndicate, both yesterday and to-day, with the object of getting the syndicate's side of the story. Our enquiries, however, -were met with a refusal to furnish any information on the subject at present, beyond the fact that an injunction to restrain the City Council would be applied for. A sentence of two months' imprisonment was to-day imposed by Dr. A. M'Arthur S.M., on Paul Yon Zanten on a charge of having failed to comply with a maintenance order in respect of his wifo. For a similar offence Archibald Burdett was sentenced to one month, warrant to be suspended till 13th inst. in order to give him an , opportunity <of paying off arrears. Michael Lano was convicted and ordered to pay 7s costs on each of itwo informations for having allowed an unlicensed hackney carriage to ply for hire. Lambing has commenced in the Poverty Bay district. j This afternooD the Court of Appeal began hearing of the appeal of Cowlishaw and another v. the Christchurch Press Company. Mr. Bell, with him Mr. Sflringer, appears for tho appellants^ Mr. Hosking is counsel for the defendantxjompany, and Mr. Acland for Robert Heat on Rhodes. The Bench consisted of the Chief Justice, and Justices Edwards, Cooper, and Chapman. The case was before the court at a previous sitting, when an adjournment was made to permit of full representation of affected parties being secured. Mr. Rhodes comes into the case as figurehead for the holders of preference shares in the company, and thus there are now 'represented before the court the company itself, the ordinary shareholders, and the. preference .(shareholders. There is nothing- of great public interest! concerned in the case, the chief point at issue being the manner in which certain profits of the . company 'should be applied, i.e., -whether certain surplus moneys have lost their character of accumulated profits and' become assets of the oompa-ny not distributable in dividends. It is said that these moneys were used to build up the bujsineys of tlfe company, and; the court is moved to say whether this was correctly done or whether the moneys should have been paid in dividends. As a matter of fact, the moneys have been largely applied to purchase of machinery and improvement of buildings. Argument as proceeding. It is probable that the Anglican authorities will shortly consider the question, of making a forward movement with regard to the contemplated construction of a cathedral in Wellington. A property for the site of the building j was acquired some years ago in Tara-naki-streefc at a cost of £7000, and during the past year the sum of £200 was paid off tho mortgage. The building fund account has a credit balance of £1372. On Wednesday afternoon the Corinna fell foul of the propeller of the Pondo, at one of the Glasgow piers, and half a blude wus knocked off. The renovation operation was interesting. The water tanks forward wero filled while the compartments ait were lefti empty. Consequently the steamer vfaia tilted uj> astern, lifting the propeller up sufficiently to enable the damaged blade to be. removed in favour of a new one. Saturday boot prices at Oakos's shoo store aro advertised. - Messrs. Wylio Bros, advertise for sale in another column houses, al«o a farm proporfcy.
