ALL BLACKS' TOUR.
ARRIVAL AT CAPETOWN. AN ENTHUSIASTIC WELCOME. Australian and N.Z. Press Association. (Received May 29, 1.5 a.m.) CAPETOWN. May 28. The All Blacks arrived at Capetown from Durban to-day. The railway station was crowded and the surrounding roofs were packed with spectators. There were resounding Cheers as the members of the team drove off in motor-cars to their hotel. There they were welcomed by prominent sportsmen. The enthusiasm was so great that business in the city was temporarily suspended. The general desire for prompt information regarding the results of the matches of the All Blacks in South Africa will be met by the Post and Telegraph Department, which has made arrangements throughout New Zealand whereby the results will be available at telephone information bureaux. The scores will be cabled to Wellington and telephoned from there to the various branch offices, to be available on Thursdays at 8 a.m. and on Sundays at 8..30 a.m.
