"The rocket lost power from one of its nine engines shortly after its Sunday launch and only delivered 882 of the promised 1,800 pounds of resupply cargo for the space station."

How is this possible? It's not like they were lightening the ship by throwing cargo overboard. Or did they not have a full payload? Inquiring minds and all that.

Sounds to me like the ship jettisoned one of two cargo pods.

The Dragon carried a full 1995 lbs of cargo, 1015 of which was usable items. I presume the rest was packaging material. The cargo includes 118 kilograms (260 lb) of supplies for the crew; including food and clothing; 117 kilograms (390 lb) of scientific equipment for NASA, the US National Laboratory, ESA and JAXA; 102 kilograms (225 lb) of spares and other station hardware; and 3.2 kilograms (7 lb) of computer equipment; mostly spare hard drives and CD cases. I have been checking over sites such as NASA Watch and Spaceflight Now. I have been unable to find anything on a loss of cargo due to the early engine shutdown.

NASA did not manifest a full load going to station, it's the return that is full. mostly frozen labs samples that they wanted and broken down parts that they want to examin.
