WELLINGTON, Last Night. Mk E. G. Wjuout arrived from Chrisfcchuvch this morning to confer with regard to the vacant portfolio, and also the appointment of a Royal Commission to report upon the Middle Island trunk railway. Mr Wright had an interview with the Premier to-day, but as regards the matter of the portfolio, nothing has definitely been decided. The question of the railway route is still under the consideration of the Government. The Customs revenue of the colony for September amounts to £140,092, being an increase of £2922 over the previous month, and £21,230 over the corresponding month of last year. The beer tax shows a substantial increase during the year, the duty last month being £5923, as -compared with £4537 of September last year. The Adams conspiracy case still occupies the Supreme Court, and will probably be concluded late to-night.
