The Catterthim Disaster Enquiry.
(PEH PRESS ASSOCIATION) Sydney, August 22. The Catterlhuu inquest is concluded. The jury found that the vessel had been wrongly navigated, but no blame was attached to Laufear. Previous to the verdict a telegram was read from a gentleman who adjusted the compasses stating that the duration was three degrees easterly, which would make an error of 12} degrees easterly. This would have put the steamer considerably further off the land.
