May Divert Southern Travel.

The Union Pacific shops at Denver
are now controlled by the new combi-
nation. The Santa F'e shares equally
in these shop advantages. General
Solicitor Kelly, of the Union Pacific,
is now in Denver looking into this mat
ter, and it is said the Union Pacific
does not view the alliance very kindly,
because of certain advantages which
will naturally be gained by the Santa
Fe, rival of the Union Pacific for
transcontinental business from Denver
to the west. 1t is stated, however,
that counsel for the Colorado and
Southern have given their approval to
the deal, shop privileges and all in

now run 80 miles An hour. The prin-

STEAMER PAWNEE BURNED.
Captain and Crew Picked Up and
Taken to Wilmington, n. &.

WILMINGTON, n. c., June 27-The
George w clyde, steamship, Captain Ro-
berts, Of the New York Clyde Line, ar
rived in this port at IL o'clock to-day,
with Captain a. D. Ingram and crew CT
the steamship Pawnee on board, the
Clyde having picked them up from the
small boats very soon after they had
abandoned the Pawnee, leaving her wrap
ped in flames.
An Associated Press representative
called upon Captain Ingram soon after
his arrival here. and was told that the
Pawnee was abandoned off Currituck, on
the coast of this State, little past mid
night on Sunday night. The fire was dis-
covered about midnight. and had gained
such Roadway that every effort to check
the flames were futile. They leaped in
great volume from the forward hold of
the vessel. dense smoke completely en-
veloping the decks. When the alarm was
given Captain Ingram was asleep, and
no sooner had he rushed out and taken
in the situation that he saw that If he
saved his crew he must get them off al
once However, the pumps were set to
work, and threw two streams Of water
upon the flames for several minutes be-
fore he gave the order for the boats TO
be lowered and the ship abandoned.
While the crew were manning the
small boats Captain Ingram rushed into
his cabin for some valuables which he
hoped 10 save, and when he reached the
ships side the boat had drifted out OF
reach. and about that time the smoke
shifted so as to envelop that side of the
vessel. and the Captain ordered the crew
to row the boat to the windward side
This they did, but in the meantime the
wind shifted again, the heat and smoke
forcing them to pull away without their
captain.
There were three vain efforts OF this
kind made, the boat being rowed to one
side of the vessel and then the other in
attempts to reach the captain. FINALLY
Captain Ingram leaped into the water
and swan 200 feet or more toward the
boat. one of the crew held an oar out
TO him, and pulled him in, completely
exhausted and almost unconscious. In
the mean time the George w. Clyde lad
sighted the Pawnee in flames and bore
down upon her in time TO pick up 'he
captain and crew within few minutes
after they had abandoned the burning
ship.
CAPTAIN Ingram says the Pawnee had
full cargo on board, principally lumber
of which there was between 10000 and
100000 feet. There was also a quantity
of cotton She cleared from Brunswick,
Ga. for New York last Friday.
Captain Migrants family resides here,
and he will await orders in this city. The
Pawnee's crew consisted of twenty Gre
men. with the following officers; Chief
Officer, b. Macbeth; Second Officer, Jo-
seph Parker: Chief Engineer Clayton
Platt. and Assistant Engineer, John ESQ.
