(By Our Parliamentary. Special). _ (By Telegraph). WELLINGTON, October 17. By eleven o'clock, the Railway F.fcti mates got through. Tho polica item 'followed with a rush, and it bpcam evident that the rest of tho Estimate had a clear passage at last. The attack on the Railway E^timato resolved itself largely into a aue-srioi of book-keeping, viz., what should pin perly charged to *evcnue and what ti capital. Here the way was also a long struggle, but the assailants were dowi every time. On the Trisco service there arc twi things to-day to chronicle, one is Ihi general satisfaction expressed. at Si: Joseph Ward's prompt counter to thi Spreckels' refusal by cabling over t< Australia to get into the Federal inai contract; the other is <he effort o some of the Aucklandere to "moderate the dictatorial line of their terrible con stituents and more terrible barrsi^koxi of the Press. They tell thorn jlainh that they are hardening up their j.osi tion and may get nothing. - An impressive ceremony in the after noon carried the House back lo th< past and to a plane*where there is nc strife and all ia appreciation and pooc feeling; it was the unveiling of the bust of the late Sir Harry Atkinson, foi which the House adjourned at a ijuartei past five.
