SEAS OF ICE
A PERILOUS VOYAGE. Press Associatiou—By Telegraph—Copyright. ADELAIDE, April 21. (Received April 21, at 10.30 a.m.) The Norwegian ship Maletta had an exciting time. Twelve days after leaving La Plata she ran into an ice floe, and sailed through ice-strewn seas for 545 miles. Many of the bergs were so high that they took the wind out of the vessel's sails, while the ship narrowly escaped being crushed in the dense fog that prevailed all the. time.
