Wireless • messages from • the Spreckels liner Sonoma were received by . the Zealandia while on the run from Honolulu to Suva. Later on Wednesday evening Captain- Phillips, of the -Zealandia, received a message from the captain of the Sonoma, stating 'that at 8.35 p.m. the Sonoma had broken a tail, shaft, and the propeller was banging. The two vessels were then about 80 miles apart, the Sonoma, which is bound from Sydney to Way ports and San Francisco, being then approaching Pago Pago. Another message was revived from lhe Sonoma on Thursday, stating- that it was hoped that the necessary repairs would be effected on the vessel's arrival at Pago Pago. Capt. Phillips, of the Zealandia, in explaining the position to ' a Herald reporter, said he thought it would be a difficult matter to carry out repairs at Pago Pago, as owing to the absence of docking facilities, the vessel would have to be drawn down by the head to brfng her propellers out of water. If she proceeded on her voyage with a broken shaft and the heavy propeller dangling about, she would .probably oe severely strained. -It was, he thought, quite possible that the Sonoma would be detained at Pago ~ Pago for some time. i
