As the intercolonial steamers are now under the necessity of coaling in New Zealand in consequence of the Newcastle strike, slight readjustments -will have to be made in their running. The Moana, due here under ordinary circumstances on the 26th inst., will remain at Dunedin for one day only,, instead of two, and arrive here on Thursday, the 25th. This will give her two days at Wellington for additional coaling. On arrival at Sydney on the 30th inst., the vessel withdraws from the intercolonial service, and takes the Maiama's running to Vancouver. After leaving Capetown for Hobart two men were stationed on the Turakina to take turn about at a continuous watch for any traces of the overdue Waratah. No objects suggestive of the fate of the vessel were observed. The collier Brisbane, which arrived yesterday afternoon from Lyttelton to rebunker, was supplied by Captain G. T. Hull with Papaioa coal to-day, and the vessel proceeds this afternoon to Te Kopuru to load timber for Sydney. The scow Maroro is said to be waiting at Newcastle to obtain a load of coal for Wanganui. About three hundred tons of Paparoa coal will be placed in tlio bunkers of H.M.S. Challenger to-day, and the cruiser will leave Wellington for Lyttelton on Tuesday ne.\t. About midday yesterday the Rosamond sighted the training ship Dartlord near the Brothers. On Monday afternoon the Takapuna sighted one of the Craig barques in Cook Strait. It is stated at Dunedin that the Waihora, which ai rived at Aucklaud yesterday morning from Suva, will proceed after discharge to Westport to load coal for Fiemantle. Between Friday night and throughout Satur; day a severe storm of wind and rain (writes the correspondent of the Otago Daily Times) raged at the Bluft. Its eflect was to disarrange movements of shipping. The Drayton Grange, announced to leave for L>ttelton on Saturday, did not get under way until midday on Sunday. The Moeraki, fiom Mcl bourne, via Hobart, arrived to time on Monday. She reported having encountered stiff winds on Friday and Saturday, with intermittent squalls as she neared the land. A gang of workmen sent down from Port Chalmeiß on Saturday to brace up some loose joints and effect general repairs, took her in hand immediately on arrival, and will, it is understood, continue the work until the steamer l caches Wellington on Friday morning. The Shaw-Savill liner lonic, which is at present at Lyttelton, was in communication by wireless 'elegraphy with tbe third-class cruiser Pione;r during the warship's run to Akaroa. Two messages were recorded on the lonic's instiuinent with accuracy and completeness. When the vessel arrives at London the necessary gear for the sending of messages will piobably be installed— at present the lonic has no transmitter. The Tyser liner Star of Scotland, which had a haii breadth escape from disaster through encountering a large derelict at nightimc during her voyage across the Southern Ocean, is due at Wellington about the 30th uifet.
