SERVICES TO DUTCH EAST INDIES
ARRIVAL OF SECOND VESSEL (PRESS ASSOCIATION TELEGRAM.) WELLINGTON, June 4. The second vessel in the South Pacific Line’s new direct monthly service between New Zealand, the Dutch East Indies, British Malava, and Saigon, the Dutch steamer Van Rees, arrived in Wellington harbour this morning. The vessel had a good voyage from Singapore, but last night struck heavy weather off the coast. The Van Rees is maintaining the service in the meantime with the Maetsuycker, which was the first ship in the service, but, unlike the Maetsuycker, the Van Rees on this trip is making Wellington the first port of call in New Zealand and is proceeding thence to Auckland, Sydney, Port Moresby, and the Dutch East Indies.
