The award in the Forest. Gate com pensation case was given this morning on the basis of £o 10s per acre for_ 8783 ' acres. The claimants asked £5 15s 9d, and the Government offered £4. NAPIER, October 1. In notifying -the award in the Forest Gate case yesterday, Judge Edwards said that under ordinary circumstances the offer of the claimants to sell at £A 10s per acre would, in his opinion, pro perly be taken as "prima facie' fixing tho value of the estate as not exceeding that sum, but it ' appeared from the evidence, and was not disputed by the respondents, that the ' reason which actuated the claimants in making the offer was that they had an opportunity of purchasing another 'estate on very advantageous terms. The . Government refused to purchase at the price named, and tho trustees of' the Forest Gate property were thus prevented from dealing with the other property. Costs totalling JBSOO were awarded.
