NO NEWS OF THE NARONIC.
The Big Twin-screw Freighter Not sited
BY a Sister Ship, Though a Special
Look Out Was Kept


BY a Sister Ship, Though a Special
lookout Was Kept.
NEW YORK, March S.-Another dis
appointment was in store for the agents
of the White Star Line this morning
when the freight steamer Runic, one of
the lines feet, arrived from Liverpool
with no news Of the Naronic.
The Runic sailed from Liverpool
February "a. At that time the Naronic
was three days overdue, and the fact
was cabled from here to liverpool, so
that the captain and officers Of the Runic
could keep a look out for the big twin
screw freighter. After leaving Liver
pool the Runic's officers and crews kept
watch for the Naronic night and day
and in her search for the Naronic the
Runic also took more southerly course
than usual She saw nothing of the
Naronic although there was a rumor
circulated on the floor Of the Maritime
Exchange that she had picked up a small
life boat half.full Of water with the name
Naronic painted on its bows.
As steamships from various ports in
Europe have arrived without having
seen or heard anything of the Naronic
shipping men began to consider disap
pearance as one of the maratime myster-
les of the times. The White Star agents
are as much puzzled to account for her
mysterious disappearance as shipping
men. They still hope however that she
has reached some port remote from
civilization and that the cable will yet
flash the news that she is still above the
waves
There is a remote possibility that either
the Hoconic or the Pequa steamship
overdue from Gibraltar may bring some
news of the Naronic, but not one ship
ping man in ten has much faith in their
having run across her although they
are certain that she has been driven or
has drifted far out of her course to the
southwark, if she still floats
The Runic has stoved on her after
main deck two Pullman cars and a
locomotive between decks from the
London and Northwestern railroad, fol
exhibition at Chicago. This locomotive
it is stated, is capable of making ninety
miles an hour.
