DROWNING FATALITY
(By Telegraph. —Press Association.) WELLINGTON .Last Night. Three men named Mai colin, Pengelly. and Quinane, employees of the Railway Department, went out in a boat to fish off Paekakakariki late this afternoon, at a distance of less than half a mile from shore. A heavy swell upset the boat. Quinnane and Malcolm hung on to the side of the boat, but Pengelly sank immediately, and was not seen again. The boat drifted about for some time, and" finally a rescue party went out, and picked up Guinnane and Malcolm. The latter was in a very exhausted condition, and suffering considerably through being knocked against the bort by the waves.
