H.M.S. NEW ZEALAND.
AT WANGANUI, Wanganui, June 16. The battleship New Zealand anchored in the roadstead at 9 o'clock tins morning, and shortly after was visited by the Mayor and other local officials, who presented an address of welcome to Captain Halsey. A group of Maoris also presented an address and a number of curios, which Captain Halsey suitably acknowledged. Thousands of school children and adults came in by train, and were taken by trams and train to Castlecliff, wherethe Tutanekai and five small steamers were conveying sight-seers around the Dreadnought, the weather being; too rough to permit of transhipment.
