TELEGRAMS.
(Fcr Anglo-Australian Fress Telegraph Agency .) Grahamstown, August 21. The Star's correspondent at Whakatipai states that at a korero during the last few days nearly all the principal chiefs spoke. They wanted to get advances placed on the Cape Colville and other blocks of land. They denied having received money for the Ohinemuri and Aroha land. Mr Mackay mentioned names of several leading chiefs who had received advances. Tehira denied this, and Mackay showed that he had received money and goods through his relatives, and told the old chief he could keep his own pieces of land at Ohinemuri and Te Aroha, but could no longer hold tribal lands. Timaru, August 21, The Herald, in an article supporting the proposed abolition of the provinces of the North Island, advocates that there be established a Board of Works similar to that of Timaru and Gladstone, but with extended powers.
