AN ISLAND SERVICE
AUCKLAND-NORFOLK-NOUMEA
(By Telegraph—Press Association.)
AUCKLAND, July 3.
A direct steamer service between Auckland, Norfolk Island, and Noumea, New Caledonia, is at present under consideration by interests which are stated to be located in Auckland and Sydney. .. . .
Negotiations are in train for obtaining a suitable ship, and it is likely that the Hinemoa, which has previously been used in the Norfolk Island trade and was for many years a familiar figure in coastal shipping as the Government lighthouse steamer, will be the vessel chosen.
