PACIFIC SERVICE
MONOWAI TAKES OVER
SUBSTITUTE FOR AORANGI
(By Telegraph—Press Association.)
AUCKLAND, June 3.
For the first time in nearly a year the Union Company's passenger liner Monowai will put to sea tomorrow to replace the Aorangi in the Pacific service until the damaged crankshaft of the Aorangi has been replaced.
Several weeks were spent at the Western Wharf reconditioning the Monowai. After her long period of inactivity the liner moved this wool: to the Queen's Wharf. She will embark passengers tomorrow and sail for Sydney at noon.
The work of providoring the steamer has been of some magnitude, and has occupied the stewards' department of the company for several weeks.
