' The collision between the steamer Mako and the scow Seagull, briefly reported by the Press j . Association on Saturday, is more fully described in the New Zealand Herald. The accident occurred at 6.45 p.m. on Friday, when the vessels were off Victoria Wharf, Devonport. The Seagull was damaged in the hull below her port fore chain plates. She rapidly filled with water, but, owing to the fact that she carried a deck load of timber, she did not sink. The Mako was outward bound for Napier, and the Seagull was inward bound from Awanui. After the collision Captain Jansen, the master of the scow, ran the scow on to the beach to the westward of tho Victoria .Wharf. The crew's effects weie destroyed. The Seagull is a wooden deck scow of 25 tons, and is owned by the Leyland O'Brien Timber Company, Ltd., 'and carries a crew of four

TO REPLACE THE.WIMMERA. One of the questions discussed at the last meeting of the Auckland Chamber of Commerce was the need of a vessel to take the place of the Wimmera in the Sydney-Aucklancl run.' The President (Mr. R. Burns) said that " ' tho chamber had sent a private deputation on the subject to Sir James Allen, who replied that he -would give his sympathetic attention to the matter, though the difficulty in the ■ way of replacing the Wimmera was the scarcity of steamers. Later a shipping representative had suggested a way by which a steamer could' be obtained, and ho had written to the actingPrime Minister, from whom he was expecting an early answer JAPANESK SKEVICES TO AUSTRALIA ■Eastern Commerce states that it is believed that the INippon Yusen Kaisha and the '„ Osaka. Shosen ICaisha are to organise a con- -•• ference on the Australian line, in which at present the Osaka Shosen Kaisha maintains a regular montho' service, and'the Nippon Yusen Kaisha operate three regular liners and six extra steamers. By this arrangement- neither company will be permitted to add to its service without the consent of the other, while the two companies will come to an agreement in the matter of freights. The new confer- ., ence, it is stated, become operative early in May, in the case of the Nippon Yusen Kaisha, ' ' and in June as regards the Oaftko Shosen Kaisha The barquentine S, 8. Wilder, which has been at Wellington for about 18 days, was towed to the Heads by the tug Admiral yesterday afternoon.
