INFANTILE PARALYSIS
MELBOURNE CASES. MELBOURNE, Aug. 1. The week-end infantile paralysis cases in Melbourne number seven.
By making a double Tasman crossing from New Zealand to Newcastle for hunker coal for her voyage to England the steamer Port Bowen will, it is considered, have lower expenses than had she coaled at n Dominion port. On completion of discharge of British cargo, the Port Bowen sailed from Wellington to Newcastle, where she arrived on Monday. She is bunkering there and, after picking up lead for England at Sydney, she will sail for Auckland to begin homeward loading. In spite of the distance of 2500 sea miles from Wellington to Newcastle and back to Auckland, it is considered much cheaper to bunker for a homeward journey at the New South Wales port that, to coal in the Dominion.
