CAPT. HARTMAN
 IN GOVT SERVICE

Capt. F. L. Herriman, who ar rived in port on the Ocean Going Tug Arctic, having brought the barge Palmyra here loaded with 1900 tons of coal has the distinction of being the master of the first vessel on the Pacific coast to be commandeered by the United states government.
 When the owners of the tugboat Arctic and barge Palmyra were mo- tified that their vessel had been communicated, Captain Herriman immediately offered his services to his government, and this offer was at once accepted, he being given the rank of Lieutenant Of the Sen- for Grade.
 Engineer Theodore Berell, also offered his services to the govern ment, as chief engineer of the Arctic, and this offer was also az eepted, and MT. Berell was given the rank of Lieutenant, Junior Grade.
 Lieutenant Herriman as master and Lieutenant Berell as chief engineeer, are now under government orders, but in order to facilitate the shipping the owners of the Arctic and Palmyra have been per mitted to make certain trips, only being allowed to engage for single trips at time. When the coal has been discharged here, the Palmyra will take on cargo of 2,00O tons of copper ore from the White horse mines which is now in the bunkers at the wharf. It is thought that Captain Herriman will clear for Tacoma with his tow by Friday.
 S-agway has been practically the home port for Capt. Herriman for the past year or more, he having run his boat between Skagway and Granby smelter last fall and win ter and this spring and summer.
 He will be missed when his duty calls him to other ports, as he has made many friends here dur ing his stays in port
