FIRE AT TIMARU. Tim-aru, August 13. An outbreak of fire was discovered in the warehouse of J. Craigie, plate glass and color merchant. The brigade was [soon on the scene, but the flames were ’ not extinguished before considerable ■ damage was done to the stock and pre- • mises. Much plate glass was rained. Insurance only partially covers the loss. ARTERIAL ROADS POLICY. ’ Auckland. August 13. Replying to a deputation introduced by Sir F. Lang, Mr. Coates said lie was unable to state what his proposals were i with respect to the tyre tax, but it i would be in the vicinity of what was [suggested by the motor associations (15 : per cent), slightly more. The 1 Board of control proposed would have [complete control. It would make any ! recommendations and say what work was essential, and the order in which it i should be done. There must be no parochial view. If it were thought advisiable that some outside man with out- ' standing knowledge should join the board, that, would be done.
