The vessel is due at Auckland about the end of December. The rinding of the court which inquired into the grounding of the Mapourjka recently was as follows: —"The court finds that the damage done to the Hapourika on the occasion, of her stranding at Clay Point on November 6. was material, but not serious within the meaning of section 23S of The Shipping and Seamen Act, 10CS. The stranding was due iii the state of the weather, which prevented the master, second officer. and lookout from obtaining a proper c iew of the point, and an electrical atmospheric disturbance then in operation. which affected the compass to such an extent as to make it temporarily inaccurate for steering purposes. In the opinion of the court the stranding of the gjjjp was not caused by or contributed to bv the wrongful act of the master, V\ iiliam John Carey, or the second officer. Jumps Hme Miller.
