Matthews, the Northern prison irstitutions, and journeyed by way of Waimarino and Rotorua, where two -of the principal prison camps are located. "In tho summer months'," continued the Minister, "the pumice dust that arises makes travelling a little unpleasant, and usually at thia\ time of the year many parts of the raids are greatly affected by wet weather, but their ojmosfc splendid condition' to-day enables the journey to bo covered by motor very expeditiously."
