FISHERMEN RETURN TO FORT
■ONE LAUNCH IN DISTRESS
(By Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, Sept, 25
A sudden southerly storm at 6 o’clock this morning bringing heavy rain caused Island Bay fishing launches to beat a hasty retreat from Cook Strait. Unable" to reach Island Bay they came into Wellington. One launch the Santia.no, experienced engine trouble and a second launch stood by, but being too small to tow her came into port and asked for help. A Harbour Board tug was sent out.
