ANCHORED AT RUSSELL
DISABLED SOUTHERN CROSS ADJUSTMENTS TO GEAR The office of the Melanesian Mission received advice this morning that the Mission steamer Southern Cross, which is returning to Auckland from Norfolk Island with a jury rudder rigged replacing her broken rudder trunk, has anchored at Russell to adjust her gear. The mission expects that she will arrive in Auckland to-morrow, although no details of her anchoring at Russell are available. The Southern Cross ran into an easterly gale, which delayed her fully 2? hours, and it is possible that some of the gear needed repairs before continuing the journey to Auckland.
