THE KARU The Karu leaves Wellington foi NewPlymouth to-morrow. NOTES. On Friday last the auxiliary vessel Albatross arrived at Hamilton, from Auckland, ffitli 90 tons of cargo, and there is much jubiliation amongst'business men in the Waikato over the fact (says an exchange). It is now proposed to run a monthly service between Onehunga and Hamilton, and if more cargo is offering, to start fortnightly trips later on. The saving on benzine and similar classes of goods is 25s a ton by water. It is anticipated that the Albatross will eventually take up ■ the regular trade between New Plymouth, Onehunga, Kawhia, Raglan, and Port Waikato. Another important feature connected with the service is the probability of opening up a regular direct service ivith Sydney. As announced a short time ago the officials of the Commonwealth and Dominion Line have decided to rename the various vessels of their fleet. Each vessel will be called after some particular port in Australasia, and it is announced that the following twelve wellknown liners have been selected for rechristening:—Star of England (Port Sydney), Makarini (Port Nicholson), Star of Victoria (Port Melbourne), Niwaru (Port Lyttelton), Hawke's Bay (Port Napier), Tndraleina (Port Alma), Mimiro (Port Hacking), Star of Scotland (Port Campbell), Whakarua (Port Chalmers), Muratai (Port Victor), Star of India (Port Pirie). Others which have already been renamed are the Indrapura (Port Adelaide), Indrabarah (Port Elliot), and Nerehana (Port Hardy.
