From Our Own Correspondent

Pt. Moresby, Nov. 17.

THE Japanese training vessel Hakuyoh * Maru, of the Imperial Fisheries In stitute, which is on a cruise of the South Seas, arrived off Hanuabada on November 15. Coming from the Caroline Islands, she was not expected until the 20th, but, owing to a fire on board, her schedule was accelerated so that repairs could be made at Pt. Moresby.

Over 1,000 tons, the Hakuyoh Maru is under the command of Captain Jinzo Nakagawa. She carries 16 officers, 39 students, and a crew of 29. The training boat will depart for Thursday Island on November 23.
