MAWSON DELAYED
SHIP MUST HAVE MORE COAL SUPPLIES
HALT TILL NEXT SUMMER Reed. 11.30 a.m. CANBERRA, Today. Wireless advice from the ship Discovery, dated February 3, states that the vessel experienced three days of severe north-easterly gale following the perfect weather of January 28. This caused a heavy drain on the ship’s coal supplies and the vessel must proceed now to Kerguelen to replenish the bunkers. The season then will probably be too late to permit further serious exploration within the pack ice before next summer.
