FURTHER INSURANCE. [Per Press Association.! London, May 20. The Indrabarah has been reinsured at a premium of 50 per cent. ATTEMPTS AT RE-LAUNCHING. Wanganui, May 20. It is reported that the Indrabarah made good use of yesterday’s tides ana by using her winches on the hawsers attached to the mushroom anchors laid by the Terawhiti succeeded in warping her stern out to sea. Further attempts to warp the vessel off are to be made to-day, and much depends on whether she can be moved by this means on her present draught. Owing to the rough 'weather the Terawhiti did not leave this morning to render assistance. The officers and men on the Indrabarah are having a most tryirtg time owing to the rough weather, some of the former scarcely having slept owing to worry and strain nn their nerves.
