THE INDRABARAH.

A LITTLE MOVEMENT

[Per Press Association.]

Wellington, June 16

A pigeon brought a message to the Times from the Terawhiti, dated 10 a.m. this morning as follows: —"Indrabarah now connected up with the other six-ton mushroom anchors, and with the two four-ton stocklees anchors on a bridle, which were laid on Sunday. The weather was fine, with westerly wind and moderate swell. (Signed) Watchlin." The Secretary of the General Pop? Office to-night received the following message from the postmaster at Bulls: "Thomas Fallon, boatswain on the Indrabarah, was found dead to-day in the ship's held, having fallen down the hold after mid-day. The accident cast a gloom over the operations, which work, however, was in no way responsible for the affair. An inquest will be held at the beach to-morrow morning. The boat has moved a little to-day, and probably will be moved further to-morrow. Future operation: will depend more, than ever on the weather. To-day the sea was again rough."
