Wellington, May 10. There has been a heavy rainfall during the past 24 hours, the total registered being 1.64 inches. A slight accident occurred at the tunnel where some men were engaged repairing the Wainuiomata water supply, the rain causing a further fall of earth. Three workmen had narrow escapes, all being slightly injured. The rain caused a slight flood at Island Bay, the tram traffic being stopped.
