YACHT MISSING
FEARS AT SUVA Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. SUVA, September 17. (Received September 17, at 10.25 a.m.) Fears are expressed here regarding the safety of Mr William Albert Robinson, who left on a voyage round the world in the yacht Svaap. He left Tulagi (Solomon Islands) on June II for Samarai, intending to clean the ship there and explore the Sepik River and thence sail for Sourabaya. The schooner France, which left Tulagi on June 23, encountered a hurricane, and arrived at Samarai three weeks later without sighting the Svaap, which, five weeks later, has still not arrived.
