BOUND FOR AUSTRALIA
THE WANGANELLA'S LARGE PASSENGER LIST (Special to Daily Times.) WELLINGTON, May 10. The Wanganella took more than 800 passengers when she'left Wellington today for Sydney and Melbourne. Last February the ship carried 337 people, away, and in March she broke her own record by taking 361 travellers. To-day she left port with 322 passengers on Aboard. Only once this year have more than 300 people been brought to Wellington from Sydney, that being when the Monowai brought 313 travellers early in February. Since the beginning of 1931 there have been only three trips from Sydney to-Wellington on which over 300 people have been carried. On the other hand more than 300 people have been taken out of Wellington to Australia on 18 different occasions during the same period. A London journal states that shortly before hi» death, the Dalai Lama of libet informed the British Government that attempt* to conquer Mount Everest must be abandoned for all time. The expeditions of last year were held, by the people, to be responsible for the poor summer in the Everest region and the natives believed that the gods of the mountain objected to the invasion of their homes.
