THE AURORA
t ITS. DEPARTURE UNNECESSARY. Advice has been received by Hie Minister of Marine from the Imperial authorities that'it'is not necessary l to send the Aurora, now under repair- at'Port Chalmers: to Elephant Island,' as Sir E. Shackleton left Puntas Arenas for that spot on July 12. In addition, the British Government had almost:, completed' ar-rangements-'.for another vessel to so to Elephant Island.-
The decision not to send the ■ Aurora, will enable the authorities: in New Zealand to relieve the high pressure work in repairing "and refittimr the ship.-which was badly squeezed in the ice. 'Sho will probably remain' in New Zealand now until 'December, when she-, will" proceed' to the Ross Sea.' '/
