FALL OF AEROPLANE.
REPORT FROM BROKEN HILL.
NO TRACE OF MACHINE.
SYDNEY, July 16
A message from Broken Hill says that although police and civilian search parties have been following up emphatic stories told by several reputable persons (hat an aeroplane, apparently in flames, was seen to nose-dive into rough country near Hockley on Sunday, no trace of the maihino has been found. Four persons who were in a car say they saw an aeroplane nose-dive. It was emitting black smoke. It, is strange that no aeroplane was scheduled to arrivo at Broken Hill, and none bad left New South Wales or Victorian aerodromes. But the machine may have come from South Australia.
