THE STEAMER WOOTTON.
ARRIVAL AT LYTTELTON, By Association. CHRISTCHURCH, June 4. The steamer Wootton, which was tticked up in Cook's Straits on Wednesday night by the steamer Blenheim, being in a disabled condition and had to be let go about 18 mils south of Pencarrow Head, at 7 o'clock, yesterday morning, in a heavy N. W. gale, was signalled at Lyttelton this afternoon. Two steamers, the Holmdale from Gisborne, and Wo-tton, were reported, and it was at first thought that the Holmdale had the Wootton in tow. At 3.30 p.m., however, the signalman at the lighthouse saw that the Wootton was about a mile and a half from the heads, and was coming along on her own engines, the Holmdale being about a mile astern ®f i the Wootton.
