HANSEN & CO., Proprietors Any doubt that may have existed as to the fate of the seven Japanese pas sengers who disappeared from the big oriental liner Indravellt has now been dispelled, and there is general belief among those Interested; directly in the affair that all the unfortunate men were drowned. ' So thoroughly con vinced are the 'inspectors that this is really the case, the search for the men has been given up, and they expect that ere long some of the bodies will be found in the river,. Inspector J. A, McFeron, who is con nected with' the department of com merce and labor, was In the city yester day and was seen by a representative of this paper, Mr. McFeron made the I trip up the river on the customs launch Patrol. He said: ' ' i y "Our search as a most thorough one and we could find not the slightest trace of the missing men, Yesterday (Saturday) evening the indravelli was searched high and low, but without result. It was thought possible that the men had stowed aWay aboard the liner, through a desire to avoid muster, and the search was ordered. However, the Japs were not there, "The master of the Indravelli Bays there was no , possible chance for a small boat to have come alongside 'the liner and take off the men as the vessel ray at anchor t Prkfieid,vajid I am satisfied "the Japs never made an at tempt to leave the ship in the lower harbor. It is my opinion that, unless they were taken off by a small boat, which seeme Improbable, they were drowned while trying tq swim ashore at Brookfleld. " V "The men were in a serious predica ment and doubtless took a long chance for liberty. This country looks good to Japanese now, and there was the ad-' dltlonal incentive to escape the trouble ahead at home. The men, whose pa- pers were fraudulent, would have been compelled to face a grave charge on their arrival In Japan, with certain im prisonment in store for them, and it is no winder they sought to escape from the Yessel.'' Doubtless the poor fellows succumbed in Brookfleld," the Icy water near rax 4 ' 4 ' numbing and Tinning 8 est Work est Prices est Material Prompt Attention Given to All Orders W. N.
