The Mcnowai is timed to leave Wellington to-day for Napier. The full text of tho finding of tho Court of Inquiry into tho stranding of tho ICittawa on tho Manukau. bar was as follows:— ■" (J.) Tho cause of the casualty was that tho information of a new bank in the Manukau barbour necessitated the master relying upon the directions of the signalman to guido him, and to tho fog obscuring the signals at i\ critical moment. This left tho master carrying on on the '•ast signal which ho received, leading to the ship taking ground. (O) That the casualty wan not directly or indirectly contributed to by tho negligence of any person. (tt 'the court has no opinion to eitpre3B as to how such casualties, might, nave teen avoided, as the rearrangement of tho lights and orection of new lights is now receivine attention from the Harbour Board."'
