MR JAMES STODART'S BANKRUPTCY.

Examination of the Debtor,

James Stodabt, insolvent, was examined beforo the Oflleial Assignee to-tlay. Ho stated that ho was secretary to several mining companies, find had been so en gnged for a number of years. Tho cause of hia present dilllculty was that he made himself responsible for his gon's P.N.'a without receiv ing any consideration, and in moat instances ho had to pay interest for renewals. He lost money to the extent of £177 10a in To Aroh.i stock, now worthless, nnd paid CMO for P.N.s for his son, John rinnkot Stodiirt, now a bankrupt. Ho wui alao responsible for P.N.'a to tho extent o! £355 10a on account of his son Edward Locart Stodart, for which ho ro tcivod no consideration. Ho valued his freohold property at £-2,000, (oror which thoro is a mortgngo of jCI.flOO) but of this his wifo holds a fourth intoroat undor tho will of his son, William Henry Stednrt,deceased. Ilia household furniture ho valued at £150. Hia prcsont income was dorivablo from mining companios as salaries, and amounted to £450 per annum. Out of this ho had to pay £100 for oflico rents. Ho occupiod the freehold property roforrcd to, and had to pay £120ayonr interest on tho mortgage. Had ho not made himself responsible for tho P.N.'sroforrod to, thoro would have boon no necessity for tiling, as, with tho customary economy of his family living, ho could have paid all the tradesmen's accounts in time out of his ordinary income. Ho had no property or in terostin any proporty whatever beyond what he had now disclosed. His indebtedness was as follows • -P.N., liability en account of E. L. Stodart, £855 10a; P.N.s given on his own account, for To Aroha stock, £177 10s; and £101 10a duo to sundry tradosinon ; total fo'IM 10s Id. As ho estimated tho deficiency only amounted to £10!) 10s Id, ho was hopoful of being in a position to make an offer by way of com promise when tho creditors moot on Mon day next.

THE NATIVES AND THE TRUNK RAILWAY.

Address By Hon. Mr Ballanco.

(DV TELK(iIiAI'IC—OW.V COURE.SPOXDK.NT.)

KlutKlUl, this day, Hon. Mit BaII.VNCK mot tho natives again this morning. The conrersation turnod principally on tho railway and land for the same. Thoy asked him how much land ho required for tho lino, and said that the lino should not run through tho bush country, which they con sidored would injure its value, and that, ns many of tho natives concerned in tho land wero not presont to speak for thomeelves, they -should haro this month to look tho matter ovor, and finally arrange everything. Mr Ballancc made a lengthy siieech dcnl ingitidetnilwiththo various mattersbronght up. Tho engineers required a strip of land a chain wide right through the country, and in some places whore cuttings wore required two claims ; for some of tho stations five acres, and for by stations 10 acrcß. The value of tho land would bo roferred to arbi tration, nnd tho natives Would bo paid in full for every acre of land that would be taken. Tho Englnocr'i maintained that the line must go through tho bush country, and their opinion must bo deferred to. If every objection unch aa this wore listened to tho lino would bo like a sorpent. Tho lino would only add to tho value of tho bush, and as bush land wait more valuable, so would tho owners got nroro componsation. Ho urderstood that, everything was now finally sottled. On further representations being made, ho agreed that tho nailing for tomlors for the work should bo deferred for threo week?, to givo tho natives an oppor tunity of arranging matters amone them selves. Tho lino would be lot in small con tracts bo that, tho natives might tender for tho work, and thus rocoivo a further ad vantago from tho expenditure of the monoy. Mr Ballanco nnd party aro now loavir.g for Whatiwhatthoo, to kooi> hi? anpoin* ■wnt vi*h Tsv/hiftn ihi? Kf{eri>«nn. '

Another Zsjutto* to Ireland.

New Yokx, February 4,

Partisans of Rossa stigmatise the woman Dudley as a British emissary, sent to take Roeßi'slife.

The half-yeariy meeting of the Bay of Islands Coal Co. was held today, Mr Firth presiding. Tho report showed that 15.456 tons of coal had be6n won during the half year, being an in crease of 2,920 tons on previous six months. Though tho sales had been ao much moro, tho excessive hardness of the coal and the cost ot raising, had neutralised the monetary benefit. The sales of coal realised £9,674; other miscellaneous receipts made up a total of £9,872 10s sd. The cost of winning the coal at the colliery, and carriage amounted to £7,777, which with other expenses absorbed the whole revenue, and the £208 balance from last year, leaving a balance only of £5 4s 7d to carry forward. A resolution was carried, asking the direc tors to make representations to the Govern ment with a view to the absolute remission of the royalty. The retiring directors, Dr. Campbell and Mr J. C. Firth, were ro-eleeted ; also, the auditors, Messrs T. L. VVUitoandJ. B|itgpr.
