LOSS OF AMERICAN YAWL FEARED
(P.A.) AUCKLAND, June 24. As no reports have been received of the 27-foot American yawl Alone since she left Suva on May 2 for Auckland in the course of a world voyage, it is now feared that she has been lost. A fortnight after she cleared Suva, very, severe weather was experienced in the probable area of her track, and since then a number of gales have swept the Tasman and the waters north of New Zealand. The Alone carried a crew of two— Francis Agnew, of Los Angeles, ownerskipper, and T. Bish, of Suva.
