"She was milliner, in little

BRIGHTER TANANA HAS LARGE CARGO
 F0R THE WEST TWARD

The A. $. s. Col, freighter Tan ana, in port yesterday from the south discharged small shipment at the Seward dock then shifted to the Standard Oil Co.,, wharf where a large amount of cased supplies were unloaded. The vessel left for the Westward last night.
 A shipment of freight for the U. $. Bureau of Fisheries at Dutch Harbor is aboard. It is presumed this is the cargo which the patrol boat Elder would have taken to the Pribilof Islands had she not run on a reef on-- the north side of st. George Island recently, thus putting her out of commission.
 Two thousand sheep were said to be aboard destined for one of the Westward ranches.
 Whale oil and herring are to be loaded at Port Hebron.
 From Unalaska the vessel will clear direct for Seattle.
 Officers on the freighter are Capt. A. W. Westerholm, A. Han cen, pilot; Robert Iversen. 1st mate; Robert Berg, End officers; A. Hushy, 3rd officer; q q. Car ter, chief engineer; and S. O. Sasser. There are 36 men in her crew.
