! tanana has accident on
VOYAGE TO FORT GIBBON
The steamer Tanana, which ar
rived in port yesterday morning
from Fort Gibbon, .where connec
tion was made with a steamer from
the Upper Yukon, narrowly missed
being wrecked on the voyage down
river and will be laid up for a
week or more undergoing repairs.
The steamer had two heavy cold
storage barges in tow and was mak
ing good time down the river, when
the nose of one of the barges hit
a bar and backed into the steamer
with such force that a large part
of the forward planking on the
starboard side of the hull was torn
away, together with part of the
house. Luckily the hole was just
above the water line and the Tanana
was able to make temporary repairs
to enable her to get back up the
river.
The Tanana returned to N'enana
with some over-the-lake perishables
and with shipments of supplies
which were frozen in at Gibbon last
fall.
The Tanana left for Fairbanks
last night, with one barge in tow.
Assistant District Attorney H. J.
Atwell was a returning passenger on
the steamer Tanana, enroute to
Fairbanks from an official visit to
Circle and other points on the Yu
kon. He went to Circle over the
trail from Fairbanks and thence to
Fort Yukon, on the ice, where he
awaited the arrival of a steamer to
take him to Gibbon. He reports
considerable activity in the Circle
district, with preparations for much
mining during the summer. But he
found conditions among the trappers
along the Yukon less promising, a
very light catch having been made.
Mr. Atwell will leave for Fairbanks !
tomorrow by train.
The steamer Carl White, which
left Fairbanks yesterday afternoon,
enroute to the Tolovana, reached
Nenana about midnight and remain
ed in port today, taking on freight.
Mrs. Blanche Martin and daughter
are through passengers on the boat
and C. W. Tibbits and Martin Claich
disembarked here.
D. H. L. Hedger arrived in port !
today aboard his palatial power .
boat, D. D. S., enroute to the Yukon ,

pects to be away from his Fair-1 \
banks office all summer. John Moe )
is a passenger to Fort Y’ukon. j
t
Victor Jacobson left for the Low- .

to Bering sea, where he will spend
the summer trading and navigating.
He is making the trip in a small
boat and has a considerable outfit
with him which he will trade along
the river.
C. W. Felch, Baxter Feich and !
“Scow” Davis left for the lower riv- ^
er in a small boat yesterday.
