HARBOUR BOARD.

An adjourned meeting of tho Harbour Board was held yesterday afternoon. Main Sewer. — The Special Drainage Committee recommended as follows :— Reports from Messrs C. N. 801 l and G. F. Ritso on diversion of main sewer having been read, it was resolved, "That this Committee recommend that the decision of the Board arrived at on tho 13th May, 1884, In reforenco to the extension of the main sower at the point 88, as shown on plan, be rescinded, and that permission bo now granted to extend the sower at the point AA, as shown on the plan, tho sewer Eo be carried through the solid portion of th» Breakwater; that a wooden shoot bo constructed at least 200 feet long from the mouth of the sewer at AA, and that tho City Council undertake to defray all cost of removal of silt.—The re port was negatived, and it was agreed that the former decision be adhered to. Works Commutes.—This Committee re commended i—(1) That T. M. Rogers be appointed night watchman. (2) That no action be taken in the matter of lighting the wharf by electricity. (3) That Mr Sutherland's offer to sell timber be ac cepted. (4) That tho application for bath ing machines at Cheltenham Beech bo granted. Frozen Meat Company's Lease. —Inc.

Committees.—The namo of Mr Dovoro was added to the Finance Committee and that of Mr J. Reid to tho Works Com mittee. Some correspondence of an unimportant character was read and dealt with. This concluded the business.

Mr Thomas Chong, a Chinaman naturalised in this colony, who wishes to return to his native land, finds considerable difficultly in carrying out his intention. Curiously enough, it is the law designed to check Chinese immigration to Australia which operates to prevent his return to tho Flowery Land. We should explain that Ah Chong has been a resident in Auckland for about ten years, with his wife, and they have had born to them here an interesting family of five little "Celestial strangers" ranging from eight years of age downwards. Finding that he cannot support his family in comfort here, Ah Chong resolved upon returning to China; but on applying for passage tickets to the Union S.S. Company he was confronted by a demand to lodge £70, being £10 poll-tax for each member of the family. The New South Wales authorities, it appears, charge captains of vessels with the tax on overy Chinese person landed in that colony, and as the Ah Chong crowd will require to touch Australian soil in tho process of transhipment, the tax must be paid bat will be refunded after the authori ties are satisfied the Celestials have left for China. The difficulty, to a person of slender means, is how to raise the £70 in addition to pas3agemoney,anditßeemstheshippingcom pany will not be satisfied with a guarantee, but to keep themselves secure stipulate thnt the money shall be lodged with them. The case is decidedly a hard one, but the fault is on the part of the Sydney officials, who rigidly exact a poll-tax even when the Chinese ODly pass through in transilu. Ah Chong is willing to lodge the poll-tax for himself and wife, but in the case of the children, who are all British born, he con siders tho exaction preposterous. We cer tainly think his contention reasonable ; but theonly wayof adjusting matters would be to delay leaving until ho had communicated with the Sydney authorities, and got their agreement to pass the children without tax "ROUQHON CORNS."-A.k for Well."«"B""8£ ?"

FATAL SHOOTING ACCIDENT.

(BY TKLEIIRAI'II—PRESS ASSOCIATION.)

Napikh, this day. At the inquest on the body of John Marsh Girdlestono to-day, C. Villers deposed that deceased arrived at Potano by tho coach leaving town at 11 o'clock. At Villor's hotol ho asked for the loan of a gun to shoot bitterns. When it was given him he ro marked that the gun had a rebounding lock. Tho usual way for a sportsman to carry such a gun is at full cock, and if the lock touched anything it would go off. De ceased understood tho mechanism of the gun, and went up the valley, when witness lost sight of him. Deceased was in his usual health and spirits. Two other wit nesses, standing a short distanco from tho hotel, saw deceasod at tho foot of tho hill, heard the explosion of tho gun, and saw do coasod fall. Thoy ran to tho spot, and found tho gun hanging on tho wiro fence, tho muzzle towards tho ground, and tho trigger bohind a point of tho wiro where a joint occurred in tho fence. Doccased, quito dead, was lying on tho other side of tho fence. The ovi dencc of tho polico with respect to tho position of tho body and gun wont to show that in getting through tho fence tho triggor caught tho projection of wiro splico. Tho Coroner, in summing up, said the ovidenco showed the cause of death to be puro accident, and a verdict was returned accordingly.

Sharks. —The Chairman said ho would now read a sorios of resolu tions which had beon preparod with the ob ject of extending tho business of tho Com pany. They would not be dealt with now, it being tho intention to hold a special mooting to consider them. There were now 14,000 shares issued, and 1,000 retained by the Company. The object of the resolu tion in his hand was to do away with tho present patching-up system, and to make permanent provision for tho distant future. Tho directors had given tho scheme a great deal of consideration, but as the matter was one of greatimportanco to thoCompany, they were desirous that tho shareholders should have time to reflect upon them. He would now move tho resolutions formally as fol lows :—(1) That the capital of the Com pany bo increased by the creation of 35,000 new chares of £5 each. (2) Thtrt, 14,000 of the new shares bo offered to the holders of the present shares in pro portion of ono new share to an old one. (3) That for each new share a premium of 50s be paid. (4) That the option of taking the new shares to bo given until tho Ist September noxt to all shareholders in New Zealand, and until tho Ist January to all shareholders absent from the colony. (5) That tho directors mako calls on the new shares from time to time, as the affairs of the Company require addi tional capital; and that tho dividend payable thereon bo calculated from the time of payment of the calls respectively. 6. That any new shares not taken up, as above mentioned, bo disposed of by tender from time to time when the directors think fit. That the remaining 20,000 new shares be disposed of as authorised from time to time by an extraordinary goneral meeting of the shareholders to be called specially for that purpose. That the 1,000 shares of tho old issue remaining undisposed of, and the 1,000 new shares created and reserved In res pect thereof, bo disposed of from time to time by tender, as may be desired by the direc tors most advantageous to tho Company. —Mr Thomas Macffarlano seconded.—Tho adjournment of the meeting on Wednesday next was agreed to.

THE SUDDEN DEATH NEAR THE WAITEMATA HOTEL.

At tho inquest this afternoon at Gleoson's Hotel, before Dr. Philson, coroner, on the body of the man (namo unknown) who died suddenly yesterday near tho Waitcmata Hotel, Georgo Church deposed that he saw deceased lying on the sidopatb, ap parently in a fit. Several persons were stanging round,and ono person fetchedsome water. He drank a little and got up. He then steggeied into the Waitemata Hotel. Two men went to his assistance. Ho sat down in a chair, and said, " I'm dying." A lady believed he was. Mrs McGregor brought him somo spirits and water, but he was too ill to tako it. Ho said ho wanted to Ho down. A pillow was brought. Wit ness went for Dr Hooper, but did not see him. Rotumed to tho hotel, but found that tho man was dead.j

Wo aro told rotronchment in Government expenditure is absolutely necessary. The following example, showing "how not to do it," in connection with election expendi ture, may prove instructive: —The Koturn ing Officer for one of the Northern electorates, who resides near the eastern boundary of the district, sent from that locality deputies to nearly all the polling places (each laden with a cumbersome ballot box), at a cost of 24s each per day. Some of these places being from fifty to seventy miles distant, will cost from £7 to £9 each. In one case six votes were polled, tho taking of which cost about 27s each. By employing local deputies, who could have made the necessary declaration before J.P.s residing near, the whole might have been done at a cost of about 30s each place, only necessitating the sending of one throughout with the papers who could have collected them on his return. Ballot boxes being in use in every district, it was quite un necessary to provide them. Miss Augusta Dargon, the accomplished elocutionist and tragedienne, is at present working up towards Auckland from the South under the pilotage of Mr W. K. Bishop, and is expected to succeed the Dunning Opera Troupe here, on or about the 11th inst. A Southern ex change says of the lady:—"lt is plain that Miss Dargon's greatest excel lence lies in impassioned declamation. In her recitation of serious pieces ahe carries the audience with her to an extent that only the highest flight of elooution can compass. There will be no doubt in the minds of those who have heard Miss Dargon that the praise which has been so liberally be stowed upon hor recitals has been fully deserved. Tho entertainment does not flag from beginning to end, though to keep Ihs interest of an audience sustained for nearly two hours by readings and recitals is a task of tho most difficult nature. To few is it given to interpret an author with such skill as Miss Dargon displays."

IMPERIAL FEDERATION CON FERENCE.

Address by Lord Roseborry.

(BY CABLE—COI'YIUOIIT.)

(Uoceivod July 30, 2.35 p.m.) London, July -I). At a meeting of the Foderation Conferuico, Earl Kosoberry suggested that a I'.oyal Commiesion should bo appointed to i> quiro into tho practicability o£ tlio fodeniisutlon of tlie Empire, or to ask the coloniea to suggest a scheme. Ho ulso urged that a Vigilanco Committeo in both H ausesßhould beappointed to watch overand ventilatecolonialquestions. LordNormauby said ho rejoicod at the objects of tho movo mont. Sir Francis Dillon 801 l and Sir Saul Samuel were present, but noithor of thorn spoko.

Tho District Court was occupied all to day with the caso of John Lynch v. tho Coromandel Steamboat Company, in. whioh £50 damages is claimed for injuries sustoinen through tho col lision between the steamer and a scow, which muh'a^) is attributed to tho fault of the steamer. .The dofonco was that the injuries must iiayo been due to plaintiffs own carelessness.' Mr Cotter appoara for plaintiff, and Mr S. Hoskoth for defendant. The case was proceeding whon wo wont to press. The Railway Departments aro proceeding with the construction of. the bridge across tho railway at Mount Roskill. The work, which is to oost £1,250,»wi1l be com pleted in about three months.._ Somo of the residents in tho vicinity, thinking that tho grade of tho approach to the bridge too steep, induced MrTolo, M.H.R., to see the railway authorities on tho matter. Vosterday Mr Tolo interviewed Mr Coom and was as sured by that gentleman that the grado would bo 1 in 15 and not 1 in 10, as had beon supposed. Mr W. E. Bennott, Socrotary of |the Auckland Riflo Association has received a furthor lottor from tho Secretary of tho New South Wales Association apropos of the approaching IntorcolonialShootingCon tests in Sydney. Inter alia ho says:—" All our voluntders aro armed with tho 1 Henry' rifle, and only take up the ' Martfni-Henry' to be on an equal footing with Victoria and Queensland, etc., in in , tercolonial contests. I don't think it would be wise toonterintoa contest withthoSnidor against either, as both aro a long way ahead of the Snidor. I forward you under separate cover three of our programmes for tho next prizo meeting, and as tho regula tions are printed on the same shoot, you will perceive that no entry for tho Snidor could bo received. We have no ammunition forthat riflo; I don't bolievo there is a round in our magazines." Tho writer goes on to mention that some years ago the Now South Wales Government ordered 50 Martini- Henri rifles for tho use of their Volunteers in intercolonial matches, and to point out that marksman who used that weapon without previous practice would appear at a de cided disadvantage.

The North Shore Ferry Company ad vertise in another column their intention to run their steamers to and from the lowor wharf on and after Saturday next. This will be good news to those living at the eastern end of the district, and tho promptitude of tbe Company in meeting their wishes as soon as tho whart was declared open for traffic will doubtlcs be appreciated.

To the Editor: Sir, —Could you inform me through your paper if Miss Maggio Stewart, of Williamson's, Garner and Mus- Srovo's Royal Opera Co., is at presont with 'unning's Opera Co., now in Auckland.—l am, &c, J.P.—[Miss Maggie Stewart is not a member of Dnnning's Opera Co., Miss Schroder, who is, howeTor, somewhat re sembles her in appearance Hence doubt less the query.—Ed.
