Rarotonga, Dec. 9.
THE two Cook Islands schooners “Tiare Taporo” and “Tagua” are in port at present waiting for cargo due by the “Matua”, which is a few days late on account of the watersiders’ strike in Auck land. The “Tiare” is due to sail for the Northern Cooks, while the “Tagua” will make one more trip around the Lower Group before leaving for Puka-Puka, Nas sau, and Mangarongaro. Both schooners remain in the Northern Cooks during the hurricane season.
