THE TERRA NOVA.
Christchurch, Nov. 9, Mr M. J. Miller, who is overhauling the Terra Nova, has made good headway with the work. The staff of workers was busy this morning with the leaks, which have been located iu the bow. It appears that the trouble was the outcome of some faulty workmanship when the vessel was being repaired some considerable time ago. Three large bolts in the main stem of the bow were found to >have rusted away, and this made an inlet for water. About half a dozen of the sheaths on the starboard side have been stripped off. The Terra Nova should be ready to come out of dock on Monday morning.
