KAPUNI TROUBLE SETTLED
The coastal steamer Kapuni, which has been held up in Wellington for some time owing to the crew refusing to sail if tho vessel carries benzine, sailed yesterday afternoon for Patea. It is understood that the bulkhead, which the crew allege is in a leaky condition, has been examined by a Government inepector. and he has certified that the ship is quite safe for the carriage of. benzine cargoes. The Shipowners’ Federation has considered the whole position, but it is not known whether they have arrived at a settlement with the seamen. The IQipuni yesterday had her benzine cargo transferred from the hold to tho deck, and portion of it was put ashore.
