'Loss of a Sugar-Laden Ship and Twenty-Five Lives' There has been posted at Lloyd's as missing the iron ship Oithona, of Liverpool, which saild from Java on 2nd February and has not since been heard of. The Oithona was a vessel of 1406 tons, built by Laird Brothers, Birkenhead, in 1869, and was owned by J. H. Worthington & Co., Liverpool. She was commanded by Captain Halliday, and had a crew of twenty-four men, of whom nothing as been heard, and it is supposed they have been lost with the ship. The cargo was sugar, of which she had nearly 2000 tons, valued at above £30,000, and the vessel was worth about £12,000 - in all a loss to underwriters of £42,000, nearly all of which on London and Liverpool houses.
