LONDON TO WELLINGTON. SHAW-SAVILL LINER ARRIVES. Last night at 10 o'clock the Shaw-Savill liner Tainui arrived in Wellington from London on her fourteenth voyage. She brought a comparatively small number of immigrants, there being pnly 200 piissengcrs in the third-class.

At the South African port, which was reached at 9 a.m. on the 24th, 1000 tons of bunker coal were taken aboard, and the vessel left the same evening for Hobart. On the run across the Southern Ocean exceptionally line weather was experienced. A satisfactory run was made from Hobart to Wellington. The vessel berthed at the King's Wharf this morning, and landed a considerable quantity of mail matter. Tho nuinbiT of passengers booked for Wellington was 170— 157 of wliom were in the third-class. OJllcers on the Tainui are as follow : — Captain T. Moftatt, commander; Messrs. F. Greene, chief oillcer; W. Hartman. second; J. Jones, third; 11. Hatchwell, fourth; Geo. Greenhill, chief engineer; L. A. Miller, second; C. J. Muir, third; Dr. W. F.'McLefin, surgeon; L. J. Wahlers, purser.
