(FKESS ASSOCIATION. TEtEGSAM.) * AUCKLAND, September 10. % The Collector of Customs hue received tho following telegram from the coast waiter at Hokianga:—"Captain Schultze, master of the barquentine Mary leabol, has just arrived. Hβ reports that on July 29th, off Cape Maria, he sighted a vessel which no is pretty well euro was the Constance Craig and ;vrhi6h came'round the Cape and hauled 'eaarp on the wind, shortening eail al dusk." As the Mary Isabel left Wellington on August 23rd and arrived at; liokianga yesterday, the date of sighting tho vessel behoved to be tho Constance Craig was probably August 21Hh. A previous report from Hokiaiiga reported that the Constance Lraig was sighted off there on July 26th and wreckage from the Constance Craig wae found on the East Coast early in Augmt. If she was afloat on August 29th there is still a chance of her having survived tho storm in which she evidently euetaincd great damage.
