Wellington, October 3. I

The New Zealand Shipping CoiuEany's steamer Ruahino arrived from ondon this afternoon. She was near-' ly a fortnight behind her clue time, owing partly to her being a week late leaving London, and partly to a : stay of five days afc .Teneriil'e, caused by the activity of the Germans at sea. It was learnt at Tenerifte that the Castle liner Galician, according to the official report, "had been captured by the German armed merchantman Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse. The Galician was boarded by a German officer, ncr papers confiscated, and her wireless destroyed, and then ordered to steam towards the African coast, where it was intended, after lanamg the passengers and crew, to sink the ship; but thanks to a strong wind and rough sea and the humanity of the German commander, this scheme was abandoned, and the ship was allowed to proceed on her voyage. Later in the day, information was received that tho It.M.S.P. Co.'s Arla'nga had been captured, but, like the Galician, was allowed to proceed on her voyI age." When the Ruahine left TeneriiJe she was escorted by H.'M.S. Cornwall, and the route she took was J patrolled by the Macedonia, Maurei tania, Kinfauns Castle, Cumberland, ,-and Moninouth. The remainder of the voyage was not marked by any untoward events. i
