PARLIAMENTARY ITEMS.
[Br Teleqbaph.] [fboji oub coebebpondents.] WELLINGTON, November 14. It [is semi-otficially stated that the estimates now in preparation will be for nine months only, so that the transactions of the present financial year may be closed in March next, and the new year commence on let April. This will enable Parliament to meet in May, and at once consider the financial position. Tho whole of this afternoon was spent in wilful obstruction to tho Qualification of Electors Bill, which tho Groyites seem determined shall not "pass without getting nine Maoris into tho House. The speeches are evidently made against time, and no end of more obstructive divisions are called for in tho hope that something mey turn up to prevent the Bill passing.
