The, Malieno is expected to arrive at r Port Chalmers ahonl 3 p.m. to-day from 1 Melbourne, via Bluff. Owing in Ilin 1 awkward state of thn iidrs she will not l> oome up (o imvn this trip, lint will saM from Port Clnliwrs at 3 p.m. .to-morrow •' for Sydney, via Coo!; Rlniit. !• Glasgow firms have Iren taking ° a good deal of interest in tin; piojiosal !o ' have a lar?e. ww div dnclc ~( r,,.j,|,. The '.' loni;«,t dry dock now at the 1,01-1. ' will only take V w----.|s of 3Sofr. This is ! much tc;o sniiill even for local rof|Utri>nn>iit". and West Crawl owners lind that- tlwy | cuiinol deix-ml on dry-dockini facililie« j when ther vf-.sels happen to require these on the East Coasl. If tl,« support of < Glasgow is of any value to the Dock ! Commiffioners in their endeavour 10 >>ro- < yirto n Iftrgn graving dock for Hie nort, < it may be, relied on. At Aberdeen there is t a. proposal to construct a floating dock at 1 a cost of £64.700. Aberdeen is badly in t need of docking facililies for the many 1 fishing craft that no-.v n=c its harbour. ' i Tho Now Zealand .Shipping Company, ( local agents for the United Stales ami Australian Shipping Oompanv. bnvn received ' advices stating that in 'addition to the ' st*»mcr Hampton, now londinc; ease oil nt ' York for Melbourne, Sydney and the ' four principal N'ow Zealand ports, tlic ' steamer Oriana is lo go on the loading ', terth on tho 15th in.st. to loa'J case oil ; for t.he sarm» ports. Tho Portobello ferry steamer Tarewai r mu lauled up on Isbister'a slip yesterday ' afternoon for hw annual overhaul. Tho , Mosrnnji will take nn her running in tho meantime. Tim Tarewai will probably resume, her luual running on Thuralay llie new cargo steamer Komala" was docked yesterday forenoon in order to undergo her Ne,v Zealand Governmenlt « survey Ew stafl will probiMy Lo <lrawn tor the usual inspection also and the « vessel is having her hull painted. Sho 1 wil probably.comn out of dock to-morrow i and sail for Wcstport. 1 The Victoria arrived at 2.30 p.m. vesfer- • day from Sydney, via Aunkland.' and 1 berthed at the Tongiio wharf. Fine la moderate weather wus experienced through- ] out, her lat« arrival being due to tlio fact J that Bhe was some hours lat<> in leaving . Sydney, and also had a very large quan- ' tity of inward and outward cargo to handle . at Auckland. She brings transhipments lor this port ex Pondo and Rimutaka. 1 no Victoria, sails on the return trip to 1 Sydney, via tho usual pork, at 3 p.m. , to-day. j A trial of the three centrifugal pumps ] oil the sunken hulk Blackwall was made < at Lyttelton on Friday afternoon, and, it 13 undcretood, was fairly salisfactorv. iVa-ny persons gatJiered in the expressed ] hopo of .seeing tlic hulk raked, but an , attempt, will not bo made in tli.it direction ] until ihiß \fcolt. Tlio diver has been at work making cvcryfhinji watertight around i the mainmast. A coffer dani hns l>ccn erected over tho forward hatch, but on Friday the depth of water in it did not reerde while the pumps wore working. It is reported that the decks arc likely to give more trouble than the bottom. A report presented to the Nelson Karfcour Board on June 3 relative to the, new entrance to the harbour indicated that largo cargo steamers can now go in (saw the Now Zealand Times). The southern ( portion of the cut through the Tioulder ; Bank, alongside the mole, upon which the ' dredge, has been working (or some time , psst. has now been completed liylit through to the- outaidc fairway. Soundings were ■ recently taken, and on Ihe'samo day t,ho ITnion Steam Ship Company's steamers Penguin and Poherna were taken bv the pilot tliroilßlll tlio 150 ft portion of tho cut recently completed without in any w?.y inconveniencing or delaying the work (if the dredge, which was at the lime engaged at the outer end of the adjoining portion of tlie cut. The Poherua was also taken out through the cut, after dork, the same owning, almost immediately after low water, without the slit*test hitch, tho dredge at the earn? time bointr moortti in the channel. Pilot Collins is so well satisfied with the present position of tho work that Tie is confident that sloamers of the Gothic, class could be taken into the port without difficulty.
