As an outcome, it is .said, of a disagreement with the headmaster (the Rev. E. C. CrcsseL.a well-known member of the teach.ng staff of Chr'st’s College, Mr. J. G. Denniston. has handed in his resignation to the Eoard of Governors. Tt is stated that- .the trcuhie which has arisen, and which concerns a question of policy, formed the subject of a meeting of masters, at which an attitude was taken ur> that was critical of Mr. Crosse. Mr. Denniston, who is a son of the late Sir John Denniston, had a disthiguished. career as a pupil at the college. He had commission in King Edward’s Horse in the war and graduated as .Master of Arts at Cambr-dge University, being a .barrister at .aw of the Inner Temple. London.—P.A. A rather unusual position arose on the wharf on Friday afternoon on the arr.va. of the W.'ngatui irom Auckland. This vessel had on bon d a consignment of cargo transh pped from the Wainui at Auckland, nut when the call was made for labor there was 110 response from the waters filers, though it was., stated that there were plenty of men. available. The on.y exp an. tion offered was that the men were waiting for the arrival of the Home boat, Port Darwin, a; the morning, when letter money would be offered. As a result of th s attitude on the part of the waters.ders, the vessel was compelled to proceed to .Napier where her Gisborne'cargo w.ll be tr< nshipped to the Ivahika which is timed to leave Napier, on Wednesday evening. This moats that the cargo w 1. have been transhipped three times. to * the -W.ngatui, the Kahika, and ultimately tlie lighters, before it is lnided in Gisborne, and will be about ten days : overdue.
