A' fe days ago I told yon he would drag an newspaper he was connected with into scrape, and he surely will. It appears no' that " Shareholder's" letter about th Titanic Steel Company and its secretarj Mr Macdonald. was not strong enough for th writer (probably the editor would not alio' stronger), so he made it hot and strong i his telegram, though done at the expense c the truth. The letter says that the seen tary of the Company obtained his positio by favour. " The telegram," which purport to be the substance of the letter, says th£ McDonald obtained his position by " toadj H ing," pretty clearly showing that the authc of the telegram and letter is at once th aggrieved "Shareholder," and unworth correspondent of the papers mentioned in th previous telegram. As the Tribune woul a have nothing more to do with the fellow, h is at present making the New Zealand Time a receptacle for his lies. But he is but bungler after all, and always shows th cloven hoof.
