THE MAORI WRECK.
REPORT OF COMMISSION OF INQUIRY.
United Phicss Association— Copyright (Received September 17, 9.35 p.m.) LONDON, Sept. 17.
The Commission of Inquiry into the wreok of the Maori considers the lifesaving appliances at Capetown, namely, two rocket signalling apparatus and a life-boat efficient and sufficient, but there are no similar appliances elsewhere on the peninsula. The life-boat was unable to assist owing to a rocky lee shore. The Commission recommend the transfer to Simon’s Town of one of the rocket apparatus, the erection of a lighthouse at- Diaz Point, instead of that at Cape Point, and, finally, a light with a siren and' fog signal at Slangkoppoint Point.
