POLICE LOSING HOPE
(Received May. 29, 11.20 a.m.)
SYDNEY, This Day.
Police who are investigating the disappearance of Alexander Collins, assistant director of the State Lottery Office, have almost abandoned hope of finding him alive.
■'"A search .of rough scrub country near a-weekend-cottage "which Collins owned' at North Sydney has commenced.
Remarkable circumstances are associated with Collins's mysterious disappearance. All trace of him was lost last Saturday, the day after he was married, and a note subsequently found at the Lottery Office contained his will, which'gave no clue to his future intentions. Examination of his books at the Lottery Office -revealed that everything was in order. ■
