JAPANESE VESSEL
. ARREST BY AUSTRALIA
ATTITUDE OF TOKIO
TOKIO, October 12,
Concerning the report that Australia had arrested a Japanese vessel, the Foreign Spokesman said that lie had no official news, but feared that Australian rumours regarding Japanese vessels' activities, also mystery aeroplanes over north-eastern Australian waters, were mischievous attempts to poison friendship between the two countries. Alleged to have been poaching in the vicinity of the ■ Western Islands, a Japanese vessel, the Yoeikine .Mara, has been detained. Its crow of twenty-four and Captain Gpmi have been placed aboard the Macdhui, which is en route for Kabaul, where they will be charged with broaches of the fisheries and quarantine ordinance of the mandated territory of New Guinea, also with being prohibited immigrants. There were six tons of trocus shell aboard the detained vessel.
