Stewards' Strike.

“Maunganui's” Delay Upsets Rarotongans.

From Our Own Correspondent.

Rarotonga, March 25.

GROANS were heard at Rarotonga when the wireless news reported that the departure of the R.M.S. “Maun ganui” from Wellington had been de layed two days over trouble concerning the stewards.

Ordinarily, the Maunganui” would have arrived on a Saturday—two days before the mail-boat from San Fran cisco is due. Both vessels will now arrive at Rarotonga on the same day and business arrangements will be greatly upset thereby.
