It- is learned that the All Blacks were very dissatisfied to find that the English Rugby Union, which is believed to have made £40,000 out of the Now Zealanders’ English tour, only provided them with third class travel between London and Liverpool, and with only second class berths aboard their steamer. The All Blacks have sent a wireless message to Sir James and Lady Allen, expressing thanks for their kindnesses. N.Z. RUGBY UNION. WELLINGTON, January 28. At a meeting of the New Zealand Rugby Union it was decided to grant the Auckland Union a loan for the purchase of Mount Eden Park. A request from South Island Maoris to present the Maori members of the All Blacks with a greenstone pendant cut from an ancestral stone, was granted.
