Ont.. says; The rno.st important sei- zures of fishing boatt^. net and fish -'ffected by Ihe Dominion Civivernnicnt officials in yeai-s, have been made in lie neighborhood of Killarney, by Capt. \. C. Duncan. Dominion Inspector of risherias. n i.s pxpected lliat whoKsile ,)rosr'culions will be instituted by Uic •'~i"iverniT!eiil. .Many Ihousunds of do!- ars are involved in Ihe scizuren. Capt. Duncan passed through Ihc Canadian "Poo' on Thurs<1iiy on his v.ay west, afler iaspccting {i!>heric.s i:nder his jurisdiction in Ihe efUiteni livision. During his operations in llie "cightxjrhood of Kill«rney. just bekiw Ihc "i^oo," Duncan was a'c^jnipanii-d y a lumiler of ollicers from the "S<^o.' 8n<i the lloliila under his charge, (x)n- sisted <,f a lag, a sailboat and a ga.so- ine laimcli fn nearly every instance f'apt. Dun- can found that the fishery laws were Ix'iiig violated, the result being n large umber of seizures, .some of Ihem con- sidered of Ihe most important nature. The largest number of infr.'iclions ol the law consisted in catcliinp whitensh and livjul out of .season and having Ihem in their possession. One of the lugs, belonging to Purvis Bros., was seized, as well as a large number of pound nets and two gaso- liike launches, belonging to Gaulhier; o' French ftiver. James Noble. Dominion Fish Com niissioner, it is alleged, was found Ui- Ikave .freshly caught vvtiiUVish and troul in his po.ssession. Noble claim.j to Ihc fish were caught in the opeif sepson and had t-ecn kept over, bul the <iMi<:ers claim they were fresh. F.ven had they teen caught in th« manner de,>;eribed. the offence is none lli.e less llagrant in the eyes of ttie law. which distinctly slates that none- .,• the li.sh mentioned shall be in Ihe- p.<jssessk.n of any parly after the clas-; iug of the season on Nov. 1. Jame.'i R< ek. a tlstierman .^f Killarney. was caught with whiteflsh and troul iij- lii.s |,<i-.'eiisioil. The llsli were all confuscaled by the officers, end the boats which woi-c seized were liberated after the ofTicers had obtained a receipt from the own- ers lor them, which practically means that they are sllU in ttie hands of the- (Kjvemment. Capt. Duncan did not feel incline^ U-. deal offhand with the case, considj ering the extent of the seizures anc? their importance in the eyes of lh«i Govcriiraenl. He accvirdingly referreit llie matter to the Governineiil. which will lake action in the near future. diiiin weight feeders were selling around $3 to $3.-i0 per cwt.
