C., March 20—During the month of Febr@ary the natives of the islands of the South Seas gatker on the coast in large numbers, and the vessels which go to recruit laborers bring home many stories of treachery. This year is 10 exception to the rule, and a number of these stories were brought here by the teamer Aorangi, which arrived this morning from Australia, Suva and Hono- luiu. The ketch Venture while in Kadiall Straits, a_narrow and difiicult passage; was attacked by natives, who attempted to climb over the side. In the fight that followed two members of the crew were killed with spears by the natives. George McCabe, recruiting officer of the labor vessel Roderick Dhu, was another victim. The cruise of the bark had been fairly successful and without special in cident until the island of Malayta w: reached. Here it was decide dto land for the purpose of obtaining a few recruits if possible. Although no instances of treach- ery on the part of the natives were known to the officers of the vessel, McCabe took precautions against disaster of any kind. In the boat commanded by McCabe werc a number of his trusted men, and_another of the ship’s boats was in attendance to No na- tives were seen on the island, but shortly after the officer had landed and had pro- ceeded some distance up the beach he was suddenly fired upon from the rear hy isl- anders concealed in thick undergrowth.

He pro- cured a phonograph, and before leaving Queensland had a native aiready engaged on a plantation talk into it. telling of the good time he was having. This was taken to the native villages and turned loose. The natives flocked to the recruiting ship. The Danish barkentine Puck with 17 recruits on board ran ashore and was wrecked. The recruits and crew were res- cued by the German steamer Meteor. Another wreck of which news was re- ceived schooner Prosperity, bound from New- castle to North Queensland. When off Point Lookout. Stradbroke Island, the man at the wheel drew the attention of the mate to land ahead. The mate for answer struck the man, and immediately the schooner went ashore. The crew, with the exception of the mate, who locked himself in the cabin, spent the night in the rigging and swam ashore in the morning. The mate and cook were drowned .
