THE POSTMASTER-GENERAL IN AUCKLAND.
(rER PRESS ASSOCIATION.) Auckland, March 27Replying to a deputation of the Chamber of Commerce to-day, the Hon J. G. Ward explained his attitude in regard to the San Francisco Mail Service, showing that the impression that he was prejudiced against it was erroneous. Mr Ward stated it was the intention of the Government to propose the establishment of a universal Id post in the colony. He would do all he could to provide that cool chambers for the export of dairy produce should be fitted up on board the San Francisco steamers. Mr Ward announced to the deputation that he had this morning received a cablegram from Mr R. J. Creighton, of San Francisco, stating that the Subsidy Bill had passed. Ho said it was a matter of satisfaction that in all probability some assistance would be given at last by the American Government in carrying on the service.
