RAINSTORM AT GISBORNE

CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE DONE. SHIPPING DELAYED. Prftflß Association. GISBORNE, November 22. There was a phenomenal rainstorm during Wednesday night and to-day, accompanied by a boisterous southerly gale. Most of the business premises in the main street report damage through rain entering their shops, «nd a rough estimate places the damage at £IOOO.

The Arahura arrived from Napier this morning, but could not be worked on account of the heavy sea, and after standing off and on all day was ordered to proceed to Auckland, overcarrying the mails, passengers, and cargo. The Monowad, from Auckland, was duo this afternoon, but is not expected till the morning, when it is doubtful if she can be tendered. Considerable losses among shorn sheep are feared.
