ADVENTUROUS TRIP.
Windjammer Fogbound in North Atlantic. United Press Assn.—By Telegraph—Copyright. (Received June 24, 12.50 p.m.) LONDON, June 23. With a Spanish duke and a Belgian baron aboard, the Serbian apprentice ship Viking arrived at Falmouth 98 days out from Western Australia. She might have won the windjammer race if she had not been becalmed in the Azores for ten days, and also overtaken by fog in the North Atlantic Ocean, when she was obliged to sound her horn every quarter of an hour every day of the last week of the voyage, during which she narrowly escaped collision with a cargo steamer. The Winterhude arrived at Falmouth 105 days out from Port Broughton.
