(Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. Scratchings for to-morrow at Trentham are : Steward's Handicap—Santonio. Trial Plate—-Lucre. Te Handicap—Pangolin.
London, July 10: Sailed from Monte Video, Arnwa. The Gisborne Harbor Board's dredge Korua is practically ready to commence her Voyage to Auckland, and Will leave as soon as the weather indications are suitable. To-day the barometer held out the prospect of bad weather, and it is likely that tho dredge will not begin the journey until Into in the week at any rate. The master and the ordinary crew, apart from the dredging hands, will take the vessel north, with one or two additional members of her complement. Mr. R. J. Patty will go with the Korua as wireless officer, his services having proved highly valuable in the past in securing weather indications by radio from all directions, as well as keeping the Jvorua in touch with Gisborne. The trip should occupy three, days, if the weather is propitious, but on the other hand the dredge may have to stay for some time sheltering in one or other of the Coast bays.
