FLOODS IN THE NORTH ISLAND.
SERIOUS DAMAGE. [Per Press Association.] WOODVILLE, Oct. 28
Heavy rain on Saturday caused all the rivers in this locality to overflow. The approach to the railway bridge ot Victoria Station was washed away, and by the through trains have to change. It is expected that through traffic will be established to-morrow. Serious damage was done at the creosote works. The water got in and burst all the connecting pipes, with the result that the whole work of the past twelve months has been undone and the works are practically where they started.
