The independent steamer Shusana,
which had been laid up for the win
ter near the Commission sawmill
when ice appeared in the river in
such quantity as to indicate that the
freezeup was near at hand, was
placed in commission again today,
under charter to the Alaskan En
jgineeringr commission, and despatch
ed to Hot Springs to gee sixty-odd
jtons of Commission freight which
ithe American Yukon Navigation
| company left there on the last up
river voyage of the steamer Tanana.
| The Shusana is taking barges along,
and if it is found that the naviga
tion company's barge cannot be!
! taken in tow for any reason, the j
j freight on the barge and in the X. j
C. warehouse near by will be trans
ferred to the Commission barges.
This action was made necessary
by the Commission for the reason
!that no effort was made bv the
navigation company to deliver the!
freight after their steamers had
[been placed in winter quarters. The
freight consists of repair parts and
j mateiral which must be had bv the j
I Commission if the work is to pro-j
ceed without interruption. To haul j
lit over the trail during the winter j
j would have cost several thousand i
[dollars, and to wait for the company;
jto make delivery next spring would !
j have proved even more costly to j
!the Commission.
Agent J. H. Scott, when inter- j
viewed by a representative of The |
1 News this morning, stated that his
[company could not make delivery of
jthe freight now for the reason that
their steamers, the Tanana and the!
! Reliance, are in winter quarters up *
the river and the members of their;
! crews enroute to the States. The •
[company varge, he says, was brought ■
! as far up the river as it was pos-!
sible to get it, owing to the pres-,
ence of much ice in the river, and
i
it was not believed at that time that
the weather would moderate suffi-1
ciently to permit of a resumption j
of navigation.
Engineer in Charge Browne takes i
'the view that the navigation com-!
[panv should not have abandoned the
freight until it was known for a
[certainty that navigation had closed
for the season. He likens the sud
den appearance of ice in the river to
a washout on the railroad—a cause
of temporary daley, but not neces-1
Isarily an excuse for the abandon-!
ment of traffic altogether.
Whether or not the Shusana will j
(Salvage any freight for private ship- j
pers will depend upon conditions,'
[Mr. Browne being uncertain as to
iwhat really can be done. If it is j
i possible to take the company barge
in tow, considerable more freight!
will be brought up river probably
than if it is found necessary to
make a transfer.
The Shusana is in charge of Cap
tain Smythe, with Peter Grandison
