The Wainui water has not yet reached the city owing to a burst in the pipes, about a mile on the other side of Ngahauranga. The accident occurred yesterday afternoon, and men are now engaged repairing the damage. Should no further accident take place there is nothing to prevent the water from coming into town by to-morrow, but it is, of course, possible that other “bursts” may occur in the meantime.
