ABORIGINAL TRAGEDY. A MISSING SHIP. (Per Press Association.) Thursday Island, August 4. There is an agitation amongst the , Japanese residents against further iv- , flux of their countrymen. They con- , sider the result will be a reduction of , the wages of those already in the country, besides increasing the antagonism of Europeans against Japanese. Sydney, August 5. An aboriginal, arrested at Wee Waa : for a serious offence, cut his throat in , the lock-up. Two native women came and saw the body, and departed wailing. , Shortly after they, too, were found in , camp with their throats cut. All three , are dead. Melbourne, This Day. The revised official returns give an increase on the previous returns of 219,000 : bushels in the Colony's wheat yield for the present season. It is suggested that the missing ship Stoneleigh might have been wrecked near the Auckland Islands. The New ; Zealand Government will probably be communicated with on the subject.
