MAORI GRIEVANCES
THJi "KING" TO GO TO ENGLAND. , / MY TELBOfUPH PRESS ASSOCIATION.) AUCKLAND, Ist April. A meeting at Waahi yesterday made further efforts to induce the Maori "King," Te Rata, aaid his adviser, Tupu, to abandon for the present his proposed visit to England, to lay Maori grievances before the Privy Council, but the protests were unavailing. Tupu said that further discussion was useless. He had made up his mind to go, and nothing would prevent him ftom carrying out Ins intention, which had not been decided upon hastily or without much thought. As a, result of this answer, the meeting broke up and many left during the day for Orakau, while the remainder will proceed to their homes to-day. Those who favoured the trip to England were asked to return on 9th April, ,111 order to fake part in a fitting send-off 'to the "King" and his "Prime Minister," who, with the others, would leave Waahi just in time to board the Niagara at Auckland at her hour' of sailing.
