[PEE GHUJVIIiLE's TEL. CO , EEUTEE'S AGENTS.] Napier, Wednesday. Capt Porter has arrived from Ruatahuna. Te Kooti has disappeared, but it is confidently believed that he was wounded in the struggle with CJreweras, and his men have all left him. 2.55 p.m. From the fact of Te Kooti's men all coming in it is considered not improbable that he has been captured by, or given himself up to Urewera, who will probably hand him over to Government, being jealous of Ropata.
