WEATHER CLEARING
DAMAGE AT LYTTELTON.
RAILWAY TRAFFIC HELD UP
( By Telegraph—Per Press Association)
CHRISTCHURCH, Feb. 22. The weather is now clearing and the floods are subsiding. There was heavy rain in Lyttelton harbour during the night, which damaged one hundred yards of the railway track at Gladstone Pier.
The tanker Voco put to sea and has not yet returned.
Latest advice received by the local office of the Railway Department is that Pareora, Bridge will be repaired sufficiently to carry traffic by Wednesday or Thursday. Scarcely any railway passengers from Dunedin have arrived in Christchurch since Friday. Many who began the journey on Saturday are expected this evening.
