FATE OF ENTON
Salvage Now Impossible * STRANDED MOTOR SHIP (Rec. February 4, 9 p.m.) Sydney, February 4. All hope of salvaging the British motor-freighter Enton, which was stranded on the Umber reef at the south-east end of New Caledonia on January 28, has been abandoned. The vessel has two feet of water in the forward) hold and eight feet in the after hold. At high tide it is inaccessible to the salvage lighters, rendering the transhipment of case oil impossible. The crew is being brought to Sydney.
