TAUPO.
Monday. The meeting of the Taupo chiefs, which commenced on the 26th March at Tahoina, concluded on Friday last. Assurances of peace and of a firm adherence to the law were made by both sections of thenatirea, and Mr Mitchell was authorised to carry out whatever surreys were necessary to bring their tribal land claims before the Native Land Court. The road from Tapaiharuru towards Wanganui was authorised as far as Tauranga, Taupo, and Topui. Turia declares he will carry out the road beyond Tarangopoto and Muriinotu. The meeting was adjourned until July, to decide the site of a township and other matters.
This day. Miss M'Cauley's body was found yesterday morning in the Waikato River about a mile below this place. An inquest was held and the verdict of accidentally drowned was returned.
