(Sunday) (AP) Samuel Insull sail ed at 13:25 a. m. today aboard the Greek freighter Malotls, seeking . a new haven of refuge from American authorities. The hour of sailing waa established definitely after conflict ing reports had been investigated. The former utilities king said be fore sailing that he expected to land at Djibouti, French Somallland, at thb southern extremity of the Red Sea, and that he would go to Abys sinia. Though Insull said he planned to land at Djibouti, it was stated here that the fact he did not have a French visa probably would prevent him from getting off at that port. Some persons believed he would make out a new itinerary when he got on the high seas, and would try to keep secret his future plans. The port authorities did not re quire Insull to make a formal state ment of his destination and so he can make whatever plans he desires. Insull was brought back to Greece last evening without his knowledge. After a brief time In port, durlnf which he stayed on the ship, the 74-year-old fugitive started out again to roam the seas in search of a new refuge from American Justice.
