Duncdin, Juno 7. Tlio cofl/stal steamer Kotarq, while berthing at Gurry's Wharf in Waikaiya, yesterday moraine, struck tho ground, and »s a result sprang a, leak. Tho vessel berthed without difficulty. Later. it iva.s found that she had made about one foot of water. Captain Hanning at first reported the vessel as no> having sustained' any serious damage, but an examination of tho hull at low water revealed the fact that tho ■ steamer hod hor keelson broken amidships. The Kotaro now lies on a level bottom. Tho hold is full of water. Later advice from tho master indicates that with suitable pumps tho vessel can be refloated. TO-DAY'S BERTHAGE I.TST.

The Union Company advisod yesterday tliat tho Patcena would recommence running in the Wellington-Picton-Nclson service on Monday next. As tho Patcena is a faster vessel than the Mapourika, tlio time of departuro has been changed from noon to 12.45 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The Mapourika will withdraw from tho servico on arrival at Wellington on Satnrday night, atid will undergo survey and overhaul. There is some doubt existing as to whether tho vessel trill return to her old trado in tho Wellington-Picton-Nelson-West Coa6t running on completion of overhaul. FREIGHT HATES.

Forward Quotations aro unobtainable, indicating that it is impossible to book freight for any period in advance.
