BEALEY FATALITY
NO NEWS YET. . DIFFICULTIES OF SEARCH. (By Telegraph —Ver Press Association) CHRISTCHURCH, Jan. 14. The task of rescuing K. Loney and C. Robbins, the missing Hampers is proving more -difficult than at first was on,. Hope of finding -the men alive is growing less hourly, among the people waiting at the Bealey.
Up till noon to-day no word had been heard from the rescue party since it left the Bealey yesterday morning. It is now well over twenty-four hours since they started. They have had ample time to have reached Carrington Hut and to have returned to tbe Bealey had they been able to locate the missing men. Probably they will have to go deeper into- the mountains. No word has been received from the Mountaineering 'Club’s party, which Jiqft the Bealey at six o’clock last night, and its believed that they have pushed on in the direction of Harman’s Pass. Over a score of searchers are enaged and more will start to-day, including a party of police from Greymouth. It is feared that very little in the way of searching was done last night, owing to the darkness.
