WELLINGTON PATENT SLIP,
BOUGHT BY UNION COMPANY. WELLINGTON THE COMPANY’S HEADQUARTERS. Press Association. AA’ELLINGTON. Dec. 3. The statement that tho Union Co. has bought tho patent slip is confirmed, but the price is not mentioned. The Slip Company for a number of years received a subsidy under Act of Parliament, but this lapsed somo time ago. It is expected that tlie Union Co. will go to considerable expense in adding wharf and improved appliances, as the site is close to that portion of Evans Bay which is to be reclaimed. AVellington papers are hinting that the purchase, coming
just when this undertaking is decided on, foreshadows the removal of the Union Co.’s headquarters to AVellington.
