Foundered at Sea.
(united press association.) Christchurcii, May 6. Yesterday, Messrs Roberts, Paxton and Co., received intelligence by wire from Newcastle of the foundering of the India, which left Newcastle on April 26 with a cargo of coal, bound to Lyttelton, and consigned to Mr W. H. Hargreaves. She was to have been loaded on her return trip by Roberts, Paxton aud Co., conjunction with others. No particulars were received as to the loss of life, or .the vessel's position when she went down. The India is identical with the Ferret, whose attempted seizure by her officers and crew, and the lawsuit which followed, occupied a prominent posi tion m the columns of Australian journals some months ago.
