Shipwrecked Crew.
ALL SUPPOSED TO HAVE PERISHED.
By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyrigh Sydney, July 19.
There is evidence that the crew of the vessel wrecked at Birkar Island subsisted on turtle, and drank the blood of birds. The island is barren and uninhabitable. The Gorman authorities at Julnit sent a steamer and searched every island. At a place named Malotat wreckage of a ship’s boat was found.
It is supposed that all the crow have perished.
