FIRE on Moana.

Ihough the passengers on the Cana
dIan-Austraian steamer Moana were
nearly all unaware of the fact that the
big cargo of coal that they were carrv-
ing was on fire during the voyage from
FIJI, there were some of the travellers
who got wise to the fact These were
bound over not to tell the story on
board the ship, but on landing, they
were not so close mOuthed.
Inc story goes that, when three days
out from Suva, FIJI. fire was discovered
IN the coal bunkers of the Moana. The
ship had an extra large lot of coal
on board and, for time. the situation
was alarming. However. by dint of
hard work and the battening down of
the matches, the fire was eventually sub,
dued. and all danger was averted.
When the MOana locked yesterday
morning nothing was told of the trouble
on board the steamer. 1t was little
time after the liner had sailed that
the story leaked out. There were not
many passengers on the mail steamer,
but the few who were aboard would
have caused some kind of panic if
the news Of the fire had spread around
among them.
