"I have suffered to the extent of £172 8/5, if you want to know, and most of the goods stolen have been children’s aud babies’ clothes,” said a Napier importer referring to recent reports of cargo pillaging iu New Zealand. “It is nothing but a racket,” he said. “I am sure that it is not the men who pillage the cargo I hat are getting away, with the goods—they are Working for somebody at the head of an organization which is operating in this Dominion. I would not be at all surprised if we importers are buyjng goods pillaged from our own cargoes.”
Mr. J. Gordon, engineer in a coastal vessel, received a lacerated wound to his left leg when he fell down a bilge of the vessel yesterday morning. He was taken to the Public Hospital by the Free Ambulance.
