THE TONGARIRO'S
PASSENGERS
It will be remembered that
the New Zealand Shipping Company's steamer Tongariro was damaged in the
English
Channel by collision with a Liverpool cargo steamer, and had to return
to
London. Her steerage passengers on arriving back at London,
transhipped to the
Whakatane, which vessel arrived at Dunedin on the 25th January. Some
of her
saloon passengers came on to New Zealand in the Ionic, which arrived a
week or
two ago. The rest of them remained in London until repairs were
affected, and
