PRESENTATION TO MR G. W. GRIFFIN, UNITED STATES CONSUL.

A meeting of influential business men was held this afternoon in the Chamber of Commerce rooms under tho presidency of His Worahip the Mayor. Tlieio wore present:—Dr. Campbell, Messrs L. D. Nathan, A. H. Nathan, P. A. Philips (Town Clerk), C. C. McMillan, P. Darby, G. W. Owen, T. B. Hill, G. V. Pierce, W. Burton, J. Dilworth, H. B. Morton, J. C. Firth, G. Holdship, and Captain Webb. His WOBSKii", in openiug tho proceed ings, said that the business men of the city had taken advantage of Mr Griffin's ap proaching visit to his native land to recog glse in a email way the literaay ability of ; the gentleman, and tha advantage which this colony had derived from tho exercise of that ability in the preparation of valuabl* reports upon Now Zealand pro ducts, which report the Government had printed amd bound up in a handy volume. A testimonial had been prepared for presentation to Mr Griffin, but as there was not sufficient time for its illumination before tha gentleman's departure it would bo sent after him. The text of tho draft testimonial was as follows :—

"To G. W. Griffin, Esq., U.S. Consul in New Zealand. Sir,—We avail ourselves of your departure from the colony to express our sense of the important services you have rendered to New Zealand in the valuable papers on the varied rosources of this colony which irom time to time you have furnished to the Government of uiu United States. Everything that patient research, un wearied industry, and acquired knowledge could do to make your great nation ac quainted with tho capabilities of the British colony oi New Zealand has beon done by you with distinguished ability. The Parliament of this colony, in printing your valuable papers in a collected form, has marked its high appreciation of your valuable contributions to the industrial progress of this young nation. In the im portant work which you have conducted and completed with bo much patience and ability, you have not only laid this colony under great obligations, but you havopower fully aided the greater work of showing how much the English colonies of Australasia have in common with the United States of America. Above all, as tho representative of your great nation you have played no mean part in helping to develop and deepen that bond of sympathy which, more potent than written treaties, Trill one day bind together the various sections of the English-speaking" raco. In wishing you good-bye we wish you that prosperity and success which your distinguished attain ments and services so well deserve."

Mr L. D. Nathan (Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce) then said :—" Mr Griffin, —The Mayor hag left it for mo, to a great extent, to convey to you tho feelings of this community on your departures from our midst. I may be excused for mMing a word or two expressive of the hisrh opinions of the regard we all have for you. Indeed, I could scarcely bo silent as representing the associated Chambers of Commerce of the colony. I have been instructed by telegraph from the Presidents of all the chief towns in the South to sign the address to you on their behalf, and to convey their sense of the Importance of your Consular labours. I speak to you in your dual capacity as a private gentleman, and as a representative of the Great Republic, you con understand how difficult it Is to say to your face what I would wish, in praise of your deportment as one of our most honoured citizens daring a sojourn amongst :ng of severaryearg. We have found you courtioua in all ways. Your industry is beyond all praise. Your valuable compre hensive and statistical reports alone tend to prove your ability. The compilation of those report*, the immense amount of valuable information contained in them must have cost you more weary hours of toil and labour than many have nn idea of. We are satisfied that bringing our progrosg go prominently before the people of the U.S. ana I may say the world will prove of incal culable service to New Zealand. True, this was yourofficialduty, butit is easy to discern tha difference' between a profunctory ad herence to routine, and doing the same eon amort. We rejoice at the extension of trade aad social intercourse with the people of the United States, from -whose mechanical genial we have received immense advan tages, indeed, many oi our greatest indus tries could scarcely b« prosecuted with out the aid of these labour-saving appliances which are a feature of the land of the stare and stripes. In conclusion, I hope and trust you, Mr Griffin, may have a far higher appointment conferred upon you by your Government than that now enjoyed by you, a wish, I feel convinced, all here will heartily reclpro. eato. I wish you God speed, and hope your life may be spared for many years of brillianoy and usefulness." His Worship then presented the testi monial, expressing tho hope as ho did so that Mr Griffin's service* would be recog tiised with a more important post, or else that he would return as Consul-QeneraJ,

Mr Ghiffih acknowledged the preßenta^ tion in an eloquent speach, and the pro ceedings anded with the usual compliment to tjiei Chairman, ._ «.

The Inquiry Into tho collision which took plaoo between the stoamer Rowona and scow Kauri was continued to-day.

Rudolph Prohl doposod that he was provldoro of the liowena. but acted as mate on the voyage in question (certificate produced). Acted in tho capacity of mate till 1 a.ni., when I was relieved by the captain. The captain afterwards came below, and I bandaged his eye, and half an hour after tho ooliision took place.

James Ma^dcrmott, muster of tho Kauri, deposod: About miduight on tho 2Jat April, the wind was light and tho vessel wiib going about one and a-half or two knots, with all sail set. My watch was up about I o'clock, but I was on deck at 7 p.m. I/oft John Whjttington in charge of the deck, tho other men being below. I was aroused from sleep by the noiao at tho collision, and cuiue on duck immediately. Found tho steamer on our leeward side leading towards tho northward. Tho wind wad on the land, and we wero sailing full and bye. The Kauri was heading W.N.W .—as noar her course* as possible. Got a giimpso of tho steamer's green light as I came on dock. Doth the scow's lights wore burning brightly. Tho Kauri's bowsprit was carried away.— To Mr Hesketh: Tho loss of iho bowßprit interfered with the .progress of our voyage subsequently when tho wind came fresh from S.\v.

John Wlilttingam deposed that ho was an iiljlo seaman 011 the Kniiri on -April 21st ljLst. Took charge of the wheel at 12 o'clock that night, and remained there until tho collision took place. First saw tho stcamor's masthead light about 2 or 3 miles oil", about a point on tho port bow. Next saw tho summer's port (red) light. Did not alter tho scow's oourao, but tlip stoamer kopt her course until about a couplo of length! from our port bow. Then hor coursu was altered, and in attempting to run across our bow she came into collision with us. I saw the green light of tho Bteamor then, and put tho scow's helm to Btarhoard, but aho had not aufDoiont steerage way to got clear of tho steamer. Wo struck the steamer on her starboard quarter, inul got clear with her boat on our deck.—To Mr Cooper: Did not call tho captain when I saw tho sUjamer approaching, becnuso I considered that thnro was no danger.—To Mr Hesketn: Had on previous occasions soou the Rowona pass within a length of us, which isnot enough. William Norrla (re-called) deposod: W hen lam In charge of the deck wo give everything a wide bi-rth. Have been 14 years in tho Northern Company's sorvlcs.and this is tho first complaint made against mo. Messrs Hesketh and Coopor having com mented at length on tho evidence adduced, tho Magistrate announced that the Court would glvo its decision at a future sitting.

BOARD OF EDUCATION.

Tiih ordinary meeting of this Board was held thia afternoon. Present;— Messrs Hobbs (Chairman), Luke, Carr, McKonjtie, Goldie, Cooper, Moss, and Clark. Chairman's Report.—This report wo* brought up, showing that Miss Jessie Weston had been removed trom Training College to assist at Wollesley-street school, that Mr Arthur Gilford had been removed from the College to Grafton Road school, and that ropairs to Nelson street play ground bad been completed at a cost of £'27 18s, being tG 18s in excess of estimate, Absekce of TfiAcriEßS.—The Chairman Introduced tho question of pay to tpachors daring absence, in accordance with a motion by Mr Goldie.—The Chairman thought tho presence of married lady teachers in public schools was of advantago, and gaye a good tone to schools.— Mr Luke held a similar opinion.—Mr Carr asked if any of these ladjes had applied for leave of absence. —Mr Rice said three had applied. —Mr Carr offered some objections to married ladies in schools, who in certain conditions, had exoifed talk among other teachers. Thero may bo advantages, {jut there were also disadvantages.—Mr Copper considered tf,t*t there were reasons, which he urged, why married women, especially wires of teachers, should not fee in the school. In the case of Mrs Phjllips, whose husband was in receipt of a good salary, he would support Mr Gpldie'a reaolu.. tlon, ''That Mrs'Phillips dq not re ceive pay for the month beforo and after confinement."—Mr Moss thought some consideration should be 'shown to these teachers. —Mr Clark said that, tne whole question should be opened up.—Mr Goldie said the husband fn this particular case was earning iSOO a-year. Ho moved, therefore, that in this case leave Of absence be granted without pay.—parried." Mk MgArthijr.—A long letter was re : oetved from Mr McArthur in explanation of his finanoiai dlffleu'lties, And further, stating ttjat ho had made arrangements* with hig creditors to pay 20a in the £.—Mr Moss said' the creditors ought to release Mr MpArthur and trust" t« his honour, the business of the Board was not tofig!)t with the creditors; but whether the school was a good one, and Mr MoArthur o good schoolmaster. Mr Moss had understood that Mr MoArthur was well qualified for his position, and it would be a' misfor : tune to lose a' good sphoolmaster Mr Clark said thjs was ah awkard case; he differed." slightly from Mr Moss; it was a question 'of example. If Ifr iJoAFtfIBF h.ad been reckless; and had recourse to money-lenders whq invariably in creased a debtor'a difficulties." He weultj like, not to re.-lnstatp Mr Avfflur, bnt tq give him an opportunity qf reducing hjs expenses and putting himself straight with the world.^- Mr Luke considered |that tbo motion was carried rather hurriedly. Hp was very popular at tiie Training College, and he thought he should have a fair chance of re. trieving his position. He might say further that he had been ; assured that some of the statements respecting Mr McArthur's affairs were untrue.—Mr Cooper knew iemetfcjng s4 Mr MpArthnr's matters, ant} he algo knew that'he K*d fallen Into t»p hands of'money-lenders, and had been pay ing in some Instances 100 per cent., and n>oney-le.mJWiS Bt?d bill-discounters were the most unrelelentfng people In the world. The Board hada duty to perfotan, especially on the moralaspect of the question. His per : sonar feeling was withMrMcArt&ur, yet, as a member of this Boatd, he felt bound to vote against rescinding the former resolu tion passed in. Maroh !ast,-^llr Can* spoka against rescinding the resolution.— Mr Goldie complained of interviews wb'oh bad taken place between frignds of Mr Mc= Arthur and certain members of the Boards Mr Goldie then went over the assets and liabilities of Mr McArthur with the view of showing the reokjess way in whfoh Mr MoArthur had been living,.

They cancelled the deed of assignment and throw the business and re sponsibility into the bankrupt's hands. Mi- Nathan suggested about a fortnight ago that he shoulp get Fortzer out of the busi ness and carry it on himself and he would give longer terms. He procured the re lenses for Fortzer, but Mr Nathan then re fused his previous offer.
