LOADING AT LONDON. Cabled advice from Home states that the C. and D, Live's steamer Whakarua, is at present loading at London for Australian and New Zealand ports. PERSONAL. Mr. 3. Rankine, chief officer of the Mapourika, having rejoined his ship, Mr F. Govsky, who has been acting chief, hus reverted to his former position as second officer of the Wahine. Mr J. Watson, who has been acting third ofliccr of the ferry steamer, has come ashore for orders. Mr. J. Weils has been engaged on the Wahine as third engineer. Mr, V. G. Parker, third officer of the s.s. Warrimoo, has been relieved by Mr J. H. Miller. As Mr. L. Robinson, chief officer of the s.s. Katoa. lias been gronted holiday leave, Mi' J. A. Hugham, late second officer of the Moeraki, has joined the vessel as noting chief. Mr. F. Kilgour has smcceeded Mr J. Kirk as third engineer of the Ngakuta. HOBART SERVICES, The new Intercolonial time-table, which omits Hobart as a port of call, has caused a good deal of inconvenience at the Tasmanian port. The gap hi the ilelbourne-Hobart trade has been partially filled by the Wninui running via. Strahnn, and the cargo steamers Moorabool and Koonya. In order, however, to supply the passenger requirements, and also to cater more satisfactorily for the cargo trade, the companies have come to an important decision. It ban been decided that tbe steamers Paloona and Wimmera, which are engaged in the Hobart-Sydney trade, shall also carry on the Melbourne service. After the steamers reach Hobart from Sydney they will proceed to Melbourne, then return to Hobart, and continue on to Sydney. The alteration will probably take place at the end of the current month. Passengers for New Zealand will either have to proceed to Melbourne or Sydney and tranship, or go by the fortnightly mail steamers which call at Hobart tii route from London to Wellington. Advices received in Australia state that the German Australian Line's steamer Magdeburg, which left Fredrickstadt, Gothenburg, and the Elbe for Australian ports before the commencement of the war, has arrived at New York, having no doubt been informed of the outbreak of hostilities. Intimation has been received of the arrival at Liverpool on the 11th September of the F, and S. Line's steamer Somerset from Australian ports. Advice has been received that the Italian ship Loch Garve, which had such a 4 long detention in Wellington and Newcastle some months ago, and eventually sailed from Newcastle on the 23rd May for Tocopilla, arrived at her destination on the 31st July. The Borderer, which was also in New Zealand, and subsequently visited Newcastle, arrived at Manila on the 6th August.
