J. M. Steward, Bishop of Melanesia, on Ins return to Auckland from the Solomons, that a forest of kauris had been discovered in the island of Vanikoro, which is, in the Solomon Islands protectorate. An Australian company has been promoted to mill the timber, and n small band of workmen, practically all of whom bailed from the Bay of Islands, bad begun the work preliminary to marketing -the timber in Australia. Sane ol the trees were between* seven and eight- feet- iri diameter and lad stems clean to a. height of »'orty feet. It is estimated that there are millions of feet of timber of commercial value on the island, but as to it§ quality, in comparison with tiie New Zealand k; uri, the Bishop could not- give an opinion. | CONFIDENCE' REGAINED Through Marshall's Fospheririe.
