THE EAST COAST FLOODS.
AT GISBORNE.
Further Damage.
(Per United Press Association).
GISBOBNE, July 17. To-night there was an inrush of flood water into the Waikanae stream, dividing the town from the beach and Victoria township. The water has evidently broken through from the Amapuni lagoon. A second bridge (Grey Street) has been carried away, and there is an erosion of the railway bridge. There is no danger, excepting as to the small bridges, the town being well above any risk of flood. There seems little chance of tendering the Moura in the morning.
