LOSSES OF STOCK
FAULT IN RAILWAY LINE
[By Telegraph—Press Association.)
NAPIER, January 25.
The flood waters are receding and rivers falling with prospects of a break in the weather. A large number of sheep carcasses are coming ashore on- the seafront. One farmer in the Clive district lost 100 sheep and manymore must have come from the high country. ' * An outstanding feature of the visitation was the success of the control of the Tutaekuri River, which is discharging an enormous quantity of water without danger to the district.
A fault was discovered in the railway track and passengers and mails by the Wellington express were brought to Napier from Whakatu by bus. • ■■ ' , ,
It is anticipated that the Taupo road will not be open till Friday and the Wairoa highway till Thursday.
