Stafford From St. John

SHIPPING

The New Zealand Shipping Comcargo vessel Stafford is expected here on Saturday to unload general cargo from St. John. Canada. She is coming via Auckland, Wellington and Lyttelton. After discharge she will sail for Wellington and Lyttelton to load for London and Hull. The visit of the 7256-ton Ivybank, previously expected on Monday from the Mexican Gulf has been cancelled. Because, of the small quantity of cargo for this port—lßo tons —it has been decided to tranship it in Wellington, where she will complete her discharge. Advice to this effect was received by the Dunedin agent for the Bank Line. Tapley-Swift Snipping Agencies, Ltd., yesterday. The Hurunui and Rivercrest both finished discharge yesterday and sailed for London direct and Wellington for bunkers respectively.
