BACK FROM SYDNEY
MR. CLAUDE HEATHER RETURNS “The outlook for the Australian coal industry is gloomy, and there is no settlement in sight,” said Mr. Claude Heather, of Heather, Roberton and Co., to a SUN man to-day. Mr. Heather returned to Auckland yesterday by the Port Melbourne, after a short business visit to Sydney. Building was going ahead enormously in Sydney, said Heather, and conditions appeared fairly prosperous. While in Sydney he looked over the new Dutch vessel Xieuw Holland, sister ship to the Nieuw Zeeland. This vessel, which is on the Java and Singapore run. has magnificent roomy accommodation. Though she is a 11.000 ton boat, only 125 saloon passengers are carried.
