With reference to the "'KK-ins'" between the Wellington and Taiaro, durimr their recent run fromDunudln to Ttmaru, Mr. Keith Ramsay requests us to iflnert the following from the "Timam Kwrald." for the correctness of which- ho vouches: -"'A passenger by bhu saoamur Taiaroa npon her last trip fronv Port Cnalmurs requests t» to mute public the following Jnosplicabiu incident: -the taiamu toft Fort Chalmers oft Tuosday evening with abont twenty-live passengers. Che sttmmur Wellington havimr left durinsr the same evening tor ttmaru. Alt want welt until about four o'clock on Wednesday morainif. whtsn tht« passengers we«t aroused by a lomt whisflimr. followed by the report th»S ft steamer was hanjffriif about the Taiaroa in an amvecountabio and daniftsroi» manner, they came ow ifeuh antt asußrtivinmt that the Wsllfrurton hud got into company witlv their vmsstsla faw hours beforehand ha«t sine* then stwamad round her two or three time'. Th« Wellington after this- ran ttnderneaf.lv the hows of tha Taiaroa, our informant feeing convinced that she ctwna within thruu taut ot thair vossul. Ke says that they expoutsd a collwion every moment, and were gTOatfy alarmed. Jfo reason can ba given for the »fttinffw conduct ot Captain Carey, but she pivssunafers w«r» under the impression that, owlnir to a preuioxw rac« betwten- the two vessels, he wanted the Taiaroa to rwto the WelHn(rton. tf Captain Carey purposely brought hi* vessel into snub, close proximity with the Talaroaas ha is sivid to havn done, his conduct is cerrepreheneiblo,. for he must have exposed b«th vessels to jfruat danger. Wo trust a satisfactory «• pliuiation wilt be givun."
