The steamer whakarua has been fixed to load at New York on behalf of the C. and D. Line for Australian and New Zea-, land ports. An arrival in.'port from Noumea, via Westport, this morning will be the Australasian United Steam Navigation Co.'s steamer Mollina—her first vi6it to these waters.

Prom the northern port the Odland will proceed to Opua and Kaipara to load timber for Sydney. Considerable interest, says' the Auckland "Star," was aroused by . the arrival in Auckland on Sunday of the Trench Darquo Chauteou. d'Jf. Tho vessel brought a cargo of eome 300Q tons of superphosphates from Hamburg, Germany, from which port she, sailed on May 3. For the most part, the long voyage was uneventful b.ut when tfte vessel Tva6 to the south of Australia a succession of heavy gales were encountered. Mountainous seas swept the decks continually. and some of tho sails wore blown to pic-es, while a number of fittings were smashed. Cape Maria was reached on September 1, and thfe barque was sighted from Tiri Tiri on Friday evening. Until arrival a-t Auckland the crew did not know that their country was at r<ar, and not a little excitement was caused when they learned that England, Franco, Belgium, and Russia were fighting the common enemy.
