MISSING SHIP
PUBLIC INQUIRY DEMANDED DISAPPEARANCE IN SOUTH ATLANTIC LONDON, May 13. The wives of the crew of the missing steamer Anglo-Australian demand a public inquiry into her fate and an aerial and marine search of the South Atlantic islands, owing to the possibility of her breaking down and drifting off the shipping lanes. A message from London on May 9 said the relatives of the crew of 38 on the London steamer Anglo-Australian have been informed that hope has been abandoned and that the vessel is presumed to have sunk in the Atlantic. She left Cardiff on March 8 for Vancouver. A message was received stating that she passed the Azores on March 14. There has been no news since.
