(By Telegiaph— ■
4Jld.Iv W ii\ y luaTvil xO« Heavy raln-squalls swept the town over the weeE-end, flooding houses, whose roofs and walls suffered in the tecent cyclone. After having been lashed by gales for two days and weatbered the cyclone off Darwin, two luggers entered harbour yesterday in a damaged condition. These two vessels were separated from the maiii pearling fleet and. Japanese members of the crew consider that the other luggers, which wer© farther east, must have received a mor© severe battering if they were not well sheltered. A Government patrol boat has left for the Bathurst Island pearlin'g grounds, of the Crocodile group, east of Arnhem Land, to determine the extent of the damage cansed by the cyclone to mission stations and the pearling fleet.
