HEAVY SEAS.
DAMAGE AT NEW PLYMOUTH. ('Per Press Association.) NEW PLYMOUTH, August 5. Phenomenally heavy seas and high spring tides caused considerable damage along the foreshore. The reclaiming wall in front of the railway station suffered, and trains leaving this inornipg had to proceed carefully. There is much erosion at the east end of the bathing reserve, where the pavilion is endangered. Little damage is done to the breakwater, where the Waitomo and the Kennedy lay quite snug, but the Corinna is unable to berth until the weather moderates.
