THE GLENBROOK MYSTERY
[.Per' United Press Association.]' Sydney, Dec 4. The body of Preston" was found in a deep and lonely gullyj.close to the mouth of a cave but little care had been taken in burying it, though' the, grave ; was arranged in such a way that 'water f rom the overhanging rock would drip into it and ' thus cause rapid decay. It is supposed' that the tracks of Butler and WelJer jia'd been picked up and further discoveries are expected. To-day a suggestion has been* made to despatch^ steamer from one of the southern ports in New Zealand to intercept the s tiling vessel Swanhilda' in which Butler is said to have left Newcastle for, San Francisco! , The shipmasters consider this suggestion feasible.
