Powhattan. Captain A. T. Hudgins
bound from Baltimore via Norfolk for

and reported being in collision with the
Sound Line steamer Priscilla, last
night. Her bow was badly damaged
and a great hole was stove in the port
side FIVE feet below the water line. The
forward compartment was flooded but
70 water reached the other bulkheads
Of the ship and no damage was done
to the freight.
Captain Hudgins reports that at 11.05
last night, while between Point Judith
and Beaver Tail lightship the PresCil-
In came suddenly out of a bank of fog
and that the ships came together af-
ter an exchange of signals before any
thing could be done to avert a COLI
sion.
The POWhattan was coming in from

of fog which made out from the shore
The Priscilla on her way from New
port for New York, was about tC
emerge into the clear when the SHARP
blast of the POwhattan's whistle gave
the first warning of the danger. The
craft were then so close that COLL
sion was inevitable and with engines
reversed the heavy steel Prov of the
Powhattan crashed into the timbers or
the PriScila'S bow.
Boats We're Immediately made ready
and an offer of assistance was made tc
the disabled Priscilla, but this was re-
fused when it was found that there
was no immediate danger.
There was not the slightest sign OF
disorder amongst the 131 passengers
among whom was a delegate to the
convention of the Baptist Young Peo-
PIES Union from Maryland. A vote OF
thanks was rendered Captain Hudgins
by the passengers for his prompt ac-
ton during the trying moments fol-
lowing the collision.
The PoWhattan will be placed in dry
dock where extensive repairs will be
made. 1t is announced that she will
not be again placed in commission on
