JOTTINGS.
In reply to a question by Mr C. M. Gray (OhristchuTch), the Premier stated to-day that the Union Company and the Huddart Parker Company have already intimated to the Government that they will undertake to have sufficient steamer accommodation provided during the Exhibition period referred to, but the Government is not satisfied with the proposed fares,, and hopes to effect a further reduction. It is not proposed to Gazette a general close season for native or imported game next year (1907), but shooting will be prohibited in certain specified areas, and there will be a close season throughout the Colony for native pigeon, pukeko, and kakas.
