PICKED UP BY TIE CLYDE
AND BROUGHT SAFELY INTO
WILMINGTON.
CAPTAIN FORCED 70 SWIM FOR HIS LIFE
The Pawnee Cleared from Brunswick On
Friday and Was Bourd For New
Yok Win a Cargo Of
lumb,r,

Wilmington. n. c., June 27.-The
George W. Clyde, steamship, Captain
Robinson. of the New York Clyde line,
arrived in port at II o'clock this morning
with Captain A. q. Ingram and crew If
the steamship Pawnee, on board, the
Clyde having picked them up from the
small boats soon after they abandoned
the .Pawnee. leaving her wrapped in
flames. An Associated Press represen-
tative called upon Captain Ingram soon
after his arrival here and was told that
the pawnee was abandoned off Curri-
tuck. on the coast of this State, little
past midnight on Sunday night.
The fire was discovered about mid
night. and had gained such Roadway that
every effort to check the flames was flu
tile They leaped in great volume from
the forward hold of the vessel and dense
smoke completely enveloped the decks.
When the alarm was made Captain In
gram was asleep, and no sooner had he
rushed out and taken in the situation
than he saw that if he saved his crew
he must get them off at once. However,
the pumps were set to work ana threw
two streams of water upon the flames
for several minutes before he gave the or
der 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 to save. When
he reached the ships side the boat had
drifted out of reach, and about that time
the smoke shifted so as to envelope
that side of the vessel and the Captain
ordered the crew to row the boat to the
windward side. This they did, but III
the meantime. the wind shifted again,
the boat heat and smoke forcing them to
pull way without their Captain. There
were three vain efforts of this KIND made,
the boat being rowed to first one side OF
the vessel and then the other III attempts
to reach the captain. Finally Captain
Ingram leaped into the water and SWAN
two hundred feet or more toward the
boat One of the crew held an oar out
to him and pulled him in completely eX-
hausted and almost unconscious. In the
meantime the George w. Clyde had
sighted the Pawnee i'll flames, and bore
down upon her in time to pick up the
captain and crew within a few minutes
after they abandoned the burning ship
CAPTAIN Ingram says the Pawnee had
full cargo on board, principally lum-
Der, of which there was between 100000
and 100000 feet. There was also Il
quantity of cotton. She cleared from
Brunswick, Ga, for New York, last
Friday.
Captain Ingram's family resides here
and he will await orders in this city
The pawnee's crew consisted of twenty
one men, with the following officers:
Chief Officer, b. Macbeth; Second Or
fcer, Joseph Parker; Chief Engineer,
Clayton Pratt and Assistant Engineer
John Ego.
All are well.
