WARSHIPS AT CITY BERTHS
UNUSUAL EVENT AT AUCKLAND. VISITORS THRONG THE VESSELS. By Telegraph—Press Association. Auckland,. Sept. 10. Although warships are a common sight in Auckland Harbour and at the Naval Base at Devonport, it is seldom that they berth on the city side. At the week-end the cruisers Dunedin and Diomede were berthed side by side at Queen’s Wharf. They were thrown open to the public, and yesterday they were crowded with visitors, who at one stage were arriving at the rate of 50 a minute.
