Ward Williams’ Hopes.

From Our Own Correspondent.

Pt. Moresby, March 22.

GUINEA AIRWAYS, within the last week, have made six or seven flights to Kokoda, the new landing site near the Yodda, for Mr. Ward Williams, the American mining expert, who has been prospecting there for some time. A ton of cargo was carried on these flights.

There is every indication that Mr. Wil liams considers prospects on the Yodda to be of sufficient importance to justify his continued interest on the field.

Residents of Papua are hopeful that a successful field will be established on the Yodda.
