ANXIETY FOR BARQUE.
VESSEL LONG OVERDUE. HER WIRELESS SILENT. By Telegraph.—Press Assn. —Copyright. Received April 27, 10.5 p.m. Sydney, April 27. Fears are felt for the safety of the barque Manurewa, now twenty-seven days out from Sydney to Clarence River, en route to New Zealand. Although equipped with wireless, which was overhauled' before sailing, no word of her has been received -since her departure. The theory is advanced that as there was a strong southerly gale the day after she left her aerial may have carried away and the vessel may have been blown far out of her course and then becalmed. The Manurewa was in ballast, but had sufficient provisions to last for the return trip to New Zealand and also plenty of water.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
