WRECKAGE AT THE AUCKLAND ISLANDS.
[by telegraph.—press association.] Invercargill, Wednesday. Tub Hinemoa roturned to tho Bluff from the Auckland Islands this morning. Captain Neville took special observations to verify the position of the Islands, and found them substantially correct as laid down in the ohart. The only wreckage found was a spar and a piece of copper sheeting stamped " Pascoe, Greenfell and Son," believed to be from the Marie Alice, homeward bound from Sydney. When landing at Adams' Island a boat containing nine men capsized, all managing to scramble ashore, some after a hard struggle. Tho Hinemoa leaves to-day for Stewart Island to put up a beacon off the entrance to Half Moon Bay.
