A Hitch in Opening New Section.
A hitch has occurred in the arrangements for opening the Motupiko-Tadmor section of the Midland Railway. The Acting-Minister for Railways (Hon. A. Pitt) has telegraphed as follows to Mr Graham, M.11.R. for Nelson:—" I understand that the engineer sent to inspect the Tadmor railway extension cannot certify that it is fit to be opened for trallic. I understand from the Hon. HallJones that he does not propose opening the line on the 21th inst,, and that the ceremony must be postponed. I am very sorry, as I should have had pleasure in being present. I have ordered a new railway crrriage to be sent to Nelson. This will be put together there."
