Holmes; and Son, consulting engineers, have informed the Napier Harbor Board that the exact cause of the mishap cannot be ascertained until the dredge is raised, l’o was found, however, that the auction arm which was always. Raised was released by some person or persons without, authority and, the cutter struck the bottom so violently as to .cause considerable damage to the gear. Since the effort to raise .the dredge by pumping had failed, guutrys liavo .been constructed ana gear assembled with the idea of lifting the dredge, bodily. As much as possible of the Waikaka gear has been used for ■the purpose. Work, however, has been delayed by t-lrij wet weather and by the flood in the river mulling it impossible for the diver to see under Water. Some of the gear required lias had to be obtained from Wellington, arid until it comes to hand a lift of the dredge cannot be taken.
