Per Press Association. Auckland, August 4. While the Union Company's steamer Apariinn was engaged in the Calcutta trade she carried a crew of Indians, but now that she is being temporarily employed carrying sugar from Fiji to Auckland, the company have decided to put a white crew, at union wages, in the vessel. The number of men engaged is twenty-five, and of these only two are foreigners. The Indians will also remain on the vessel, which will practically carry two crews until she is withdrawn from the Intercolonial trade.
