THE ROTORUA CASE.

Per Press Association, Wellington. July 24. In the Appeal Court in the Rotorua case the Solicitor-General submitted that the principle to be acted upon by the Court was that the Native title is not available in any manner fon for any pnrposa against the Crown. As against the Crown it is not a legal title at all. If, therefore, any dispute exists as to whether the land is Native customary land or Crown lands tho ipse dixit of the Crown is conclusive, and the question cannot bo litigated in tills or any other Court. The.case is proceeding.
