SEARCH BY TUG
A DIFFICULT TASK
POOR VISIBILITY
SYDNEY, July 9.
The tug Carlock, which set out this morning to rescue the Maheno, < cannot reach the Oonah until after dark, and it will be impossible then to locate the Maheno. • The Odnah reported that she had completely lost sight of the Maheno, which will probably not be located until some time after daybreak tomorrow. The westerly wind is likely to keep her off the coast.
Lighthouse-keepers report that it is impossible to see nfore than two miles out to sea. The Maheno has wireless equipment, but, in the absence of any messages from her, it is doubted whether the skeleton crew aboard is able to work it.
