Fears are entertained for the safety of two fishermen—Owen Jones, aged about 40. married, with three children, ’ and Donald Wardle, a young man who is understood to have arrived recently from England. They left Auckland on the launch Huana on Sunday morning, anchoring off the north-east end of Tiri Tiri Island, in the Hauraki Gulf, on Monday afternoon. They were seen from the island leaving the launch in a dinghy about seven o’clock in the evening to set their nets, and they have not been seen since. The launch was found at the anchorage to-day, unoccupied, and the dinghy was missing.
