The Sea Wolf returned after an
interesting and profitable cruise
about thirty miles north of Wain
wright. They had good trading and
brought back a fine cargo of ivory
and furs. There is little to report
about the trip. All the school teach
ers are well and whales have been
caught in abundance at Icy Cape
which provides plenty kow-kow for
the natives. The schooner encount
ered lots of ice all the way and the
Herman turned back at Icy Cape
being unable to make thrip clear
through. The Holmes which was
also bound for Barrow, lay to at
Point Hope for the ice to clear.
The Alaska Lighterage and Com
mercial Co. finds itself up against a
hard proposition in the matter of se
curing vessels for the purpose or
bringing up coal. Charters are out
of the question and the effort to
get the coal sent up on the regular
boats coming here meet with all
sorts of difficulties. The main
trouble with the freight congestion
is that the government through the
Alaska Engineering Commission in
sists upon dispatching via St. Micha
els three thousand tons of steel
rails. The rails are for the pur
jjose of building the Tanana end
of the railroad. This adds to the
freight congestion caused by the
strike and efforts to postpone the
movement of rails have been un
successful. The demand for tonnage
is still Increasing on the Pacific as
well as the Atlantic coast.
