THE PAPANUI'S DAMAGES. > When the New Zealand Shinning Company's steamer Papanui, which recently struck a reef off the north of Tasrasniii, was placed in Duke's Dock. Melbourne, it was found that along both sides for a distance of about 250 ft, her plates had either been torn asunder or otherwise seriously injured. On "the port side the results "of the accident were especially serious. There were several gaiiinn holes, into on« of which a man could j

easily crawl. Through these apertures the false bottom, which, no doubt, saved the steamer from sinking, was exposed. Tho repairs:will be the largest ship-ping work yet undertaken in Australia, and will occupy at least two months, and employment will be found for'all the ship repairers available. It is. impossible to say what the cost will be, but it is safeto put it at between £20,000 and .£30,000. In all, 127 plates, averaging 20ft by 6ft, will have to be removed. About half of these have been completely destroyed, and must be "replaced by new ones.
