WESTMORELAND PUTS BACK
(BY TELEGRAPH.—PRESS ASSOCIATION.)
DUNEDIN, This Day.
The steamer Westmoreland, which sailed on Saturday for Bluff, put back yesterday. On the run down the starboard engine developed a knock, and investigations outside Bluff Harbour showed a loosening of the packing in the stern tube. Captain Deith therefore returned. In dock it was discovered that a blade of one of the propellers had been bent by contact with some solid body. After repair work, tho Westmoreland sailed this morning for Bluff.
