FUEL OIL GIVES TROUBLE
TROJAN STAR PUTS BACK. By Telegraph—Press Association WELLINGTON, May 15. Trouble with her fuel oil which is believed to involve mechanical complications, has necessitated the freighter Trojan Star returning to port after having been a week on her journey from Auckland to London, via the Panama Canal. The ship, with a large cargo of New Zealand produce for discharge at London, Avonmouth, Liverpool and Glasgow left Auckland at midnight on May 8, and to-day the head office of the Blue Star Line received a wireless message from the ship stating that she would probably reach Wellington at 8 o'clock to-night. There is a likelihood, however, that her arrival will be delayed until to-morrow morning.
