The Missing Hitachi Maru...... The Nippon Yusen Kaisha: announces (says the Kobe Herald" of January 18) with reference to the missing-Hitachi Maru that the Chikuzen Maru, under the command of Capt. Yamawaki, has made a strenuous search in the south seas and Indian Ocean in co-operation with the Imperial Navy, with the result that several pieces of material from which something regarding the fate of the Hitachi Maru may be learnt have been secured. Information, obtained. [ by warships" of the Allies is to the effect that a steamer which was taking the same course as the Hitachi Maru at the ame time did not receive any wireless message from the Hitachi: Maru l'nor did she see any signs-what- ever of the steamer. On orabṛut Oct. 1st, two steamers; the nationality of which was un- known, arrived at the Maldive Islands, and anchored there for about a fortnight. Each of the
