THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH,
UGO MARU MYSTERY.
IS THE STORY OF DESTRUÇ".
*TION A FABRÍCATION?
Tokyo, June 6. Mystery appears to surround the report of the Ugo Maru's do- struction, en route to Kamchatka. The Soviet trade commissioner asserts that telegraphic enquiries from Vladivostok have brought a reply that the vessel arrived safely at her destination on May 29, but neither confirmation nor depal has thus far been obtain-
ed by Japanese interests concern. ed, despite enquiries.
The general opinion appears to be either, that the Soviet, is pur- poly suppressing the news, fear ing the effect on recruiting for the Ashing fleet, or else the whals story la a fabrication, or grossly exaggerated, and was circulated by Interested parties.-Reuter, .
According to a Tokyo message of June 5, the Japanese-steamer Ugo Maru, carrying over-seven hundred persons on board, men and women, had been destroyed by, fire. The vessel was on her way from Vladivoalok to Kamchatka with a large number of passen- gers, most of them being Rus- sians. It was stated that fire broke out on board and awept through the ship. Vessels recoil. ing distress signals were hurrying to the scene of the dianster, hat ne details were available.]
