FAILURE TO PIERCE VEIL OF
MYSTERY,
(Special to the Herald.) WELLINGTON, this day., The National Gotfernmen.* leaders had reason to be well pleased with the public reception m Wellington, though tjiey have no pleasant recollections of the final Mage of their journey down the West Coast. Thirty hours' tossing m a small steamer was a -poor end to a trip which throughout had been m pleasant weather." \ "We don't want any further arguments iiii favor of the resumption of the railway services as soon as possible," declared Mr. Massey, apropos of the journey on the steamer Pateena.
Journalists' efforts to pierce .he veilof mystery regarding their future political intentions have been hardly more successful here than m Auckland," though it has now become evident that the National Government will be maintained to meet Parliament m that capacity. Sir Joseph Ward, who goes,. to*. Christehurch, returns on Wednesday to resume Ministerial woi'k. The Prime Minister has started office business. His proposed consultation with members of the Reform party is to be postponed until the opening of the session, owing to the difficulty of communication. .
