The vessel was until recently a coal hulk In the Auckland Harbour, and was towed down to Dunedin by the Te Anau. The Inquiry into the wreck of the John Murray, which was stranded on a reef off Maiden Island recently, has been concluded. The captain, Mr. G. B. Vaughan, together with two seamen, recently passed through Auckland on their way to Australia, after going over 500 miles in an open boat. In deciding that no blame was attributable to any person, the Victorian Mxrine Board congratulated the master" of tbc vessel on having conducted himself Hke a man, and also referred to the excellent seamanship of the crew. It found that the wreck was caused by an abnormal westward set of three miles an hour, much exceeding any suggested by the sailing airections, in which the maximum current previously recorded was given as 5G miles in 24 hours.
