As no vessels, will be using the new dock for the next week or so the remedying of the defect© in the altars, by ineare of additions to their height, will probably be proceeded with. It is estimated that the Dutch fleet left . behind in Adelaide 150 deserters. Word has been received from Captain Cox stating that the Maoriland Company's new steamer Lauderdale, now building, may be delayed in completion by the boilennakers' 6triko in England.

It appears (says an exchange) that a number of Australian seamen who havo •igned articles for the single voyage to England have found themselves unable either to obtain employment in England or to work their way home again. To prevent this recurring, the Commonwealth Department of External Affairs has issued the following notice, and has sent copies to the Marine Board for distribution ; " Australian seamen signing Articles in Australia for tho single voyage to Great Britain are warned of the difficulty they are likely to meet with in finding employment in the United Kingdom and in securing berths for a voyage to Australia. It is the regular practice for ships to engage crews in the United Kingdom for the Totind voyage, and consequently there is very little chance of men desirous of engaging for the eingle voyage being required." In a report presented to the Wangantii Harbor Board last night Mr Leslie Reynolds, consulting engineer, makes gratifying reference to the results obtained in connection with the scheme of harbor improvements now in progress. " I say candidly." he says, " that the work co far carried out should bo regarded as an index of the improvement ahead, and that your Board will have the harbor of the toast, provided that funds are available to complete tho work you havo now in h;md " The engineer further says that he look 6 to see the harbor ipa/de capable of admitting ocean liners to Castlecliff, which in his opinion will be tho centre very shortlv of an enormous trade.

Manuka, s.s., berthed at the cross wharf at six o'clock this morning. Leaving Sydney at .30 p.m. last Saturday, phe arrived at Wellington at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, sailing from that port at 5 p.m. next day, and from Lyttelton at 2 p.m. yesterday. Across the Tasman Sea line weather and S.S.W. swell were experienced, and along the coast fine weather and smooth sea. The Manuka sails from the cross wharf at 5 pjn. tomorrow for the Bluff, Hobart, and Melbourne. Passengers: For the BluS — •Messrs Hume, J. R. Scott. For Melbourne—Miss Quinn, Mesdames Gunn, Lindsay, Marr and child, Messrs Gram, Lindsay, Mitchell. Indrabarah, t.e_s., left the dock at 5.5 a.m. to-day, and straightway steamed out to sea on her way to Lyttelton to commence Homeward loading.

Isabella De Fraine, schooner, from Kaipara with timber, came in at the Heads at 8.5 this morning. She elected to sail up the harbor, but owing to light aad vanable winds was not expected to reach Dunedin wharf until late this afternoon.

Captain Smith, late of the Mokoia, now lying up at Port, took command of the Manuka to-day. Captain Worrall will take the Moana to .Sydney, where he and his deck officers will transfer to the Mamma, which enters the intercolonial service, sailing from Sydney on November 19. Captain Morrisby and the officers _of tho Mararoa transfer to the Moana, which takes the Marama's placo in the Van--couver run.

Glenehee, barque, should get away from Wellington -*ith the first fair wind. After completing discharge of- heT Liverpool cargo hero she goes to Kaipara to load timber for Melbourne. The mast*.? has signed on several "rnnners" at £5 for the trip to Dxmedin. . "Ktmoadko, torrent deck steamer, anchored at the Heads at five o'clock this morning, and later oune on to Dunedin, fcerttiug at the Itatoxy street vhsd -*f4er

pratique had been granted. She loft' Newcastle last Saturday at midnight with a cargo of coal for Dimedm and Lyttelton, and strong southerly winds to a gale lasted throughout the voyage. AfteT discharging 950 tons of coal and 150 tons of manureliere the Koromiko sails from Port on Monday to complete discharge at Lyttelton, and from there goes to the West Coast. Westralia, s.s., from Sydney via Auckland, is expected to arrive to-morrow afternoon, her departure from Lyttelton having been postponed until thi6 evening on account of the races at Christchurch. Dalmore, 6.6., 4,417 tons, has been chartered by tho A. and A. Line to load at New York for Australia and New Zealand. She is to sail about December 10. 'There- arc all kinds of handshakes. Most people agree that the clammy kind is unpleasant, if it does not cTeate disliko. But tho hearty " pood-luck-old-man shake," tho '* God-bless yon-and-may-yonr-shadow-never-grow-lcss" kind of squeeze, also has di&ad vantages. So at least the person who fell into the harbor yesterday when the Hauroto left would be justified in thinking. His friend was going to tho Cup meeting at Christ church, it was said, and both of them hung on a little too long, tho Tesult being that the man on the wharf fell into the water. He was soon got out. ■ MERCANTILE MARINE DISPUTE. The hearing of claims filed by the Merchant Servico Guild of Australia against the Commonwealth Steamship Owners' Federation will begin at Darlinghuret, Sydney, on Monday, before Mr Justice Hingins. President of tho Federal Arbitration Court. The Guild has filed thirtyfivo claims, chief of which have reference to salaries paid to masters and other navigating officers, continuity of employment, overtime for office)*, regulation of hours for officers, ship-shifting at night by masters, definition of the term permanent employment of masters and officers, victualling allowance to masters ;ind officers, allowance of incidental expenses to shipmasters, travelling expenses, leave, of absence, vision teste, allowance for uniform trappings, and preference to Guild members. From w-lwt. can be understood, the interstate companies now pay each month in salaries a sum exceeding £7,000, ;ind the Guild will ask for an increase of about 17 per cent. The case is to be conducted on this occasion without the aid of counsel. The shipowners wanted counsel to attend, but the Guild objected, and tho Judge upheld tho objection. OVEESEA STEAMERS.
