ROUGH WEATHER
SHIPPING HELD UP.
AUCKLAND, Friday.
Bitterly cold winds, accompanied in various places by snow, hail and rain were experienced throughout the Auckland Province to-day. The boisterous westerly weather which commenced on Tuesday continued, causing high seas on the west coast and interfering with shipping. The conditions on Waitemata Harbour, however, were not very rough. Several coastal vessels are barbound at Oneliunga.—(P.A.)
