STEAMER HAWERA
Special to the "Times.*' WANGANUI, February 15. The contractors for the work of re* pairing the s.s. Hawera at Patea bar are making excellent progress, though the work is far heavier than was at first anticipated. The damage to the hull in particular is very extensive, and will take many weeks to repair. At the present time work on the bull is proceeding as rapidly as possible, the engineers in the meantime taking the opportunity of overhauling the engines and refrigerating machinery. When repairs are completed the vessel will be repainted and made spick and span, in readiness for relaunching.
