OLD COLORADO IS
A NEW SHIP NOW
MALLORY LINER, BURNED SOME
MONTHS AGO, COMES IN FOR
AN EXTRA CARGO.

The Mallory line steamer SanSaba
arrived in port yesterday morning,
this being the third trip this ship
has made since she was rebuilt by the
Merrill Stevens company of Jackson
vile.
The SanSaba is really the old NAL
lory line steamer Colorado, but no
one would ever know it by looking at
the present vessel. 1t will be remem-
bered that the Colorado, while off
Charleston last December, caught on
fire and was almost destroyed The
steamer was towed into Charleston
and turned over to the insurance
company Later the steamer was pur-
chased from the company by the NAL
lory line and the Jacksonville concern
was given the contract to rebuild the
steamer.
The San Saba is now very hand
some freight ship The main deck
has been entirely done away with,
and everything has been so arranged
as to give the steamer as much room
as possible for freight. The ship
was sent here by the Mallory line as
an extra teamer, and she will take on
large cargo of miscellaneous freight.

tion on the wharves of the line.
