Apia, Feb. 19.
Preparations for the reception of Lord Bledisloe (Governor-General of N.Z.) in April are being made, and an expensive programme for the enter tainment of the Governor-General and the “Diomedes’ ” company is being pro vided for.
Probably important questions of policy will be discussed with the Minister rep resenting the N.Z. Government, who is sure to accompany the Governor- General.
A month after the departure of Lord Bledisloe, the German cruiser “Koln” will call at Apia for a five days’ official visit. The German Consul from Welling ton, N.Z., will be on board.
