GROSS OUTRAGE.
Newfoundlanders attack Anne
rican Fishermen-The New
York Herald's call on
Secretary Evarts.

New York. October 6.-I'he Her.
AIDS St. Johns. n. F., dispatch says !;
The notice of the Newfoundland au-
thori,ies directed to some complaints
made by the Gloucester fisherman of
ill-treatmeDt ut the hands of the New
foundland fisherman and an inter
ference with the just rights of United
States fisherman in British waters.
The Governor of Newfoundland ac-
c"rdibgly sent for Thomas Goss, Of
TOrbsy, the only trustworthy witness
that so far can be procured. Goss act
ted as pilot in Conception Bay for
Capt. MacEntyre Of the Gloucester
schooner Minnesota. Before Judge
Conroy, Goss deposed that he started
from Torbay Monday, 2Oth of June,
in the capacity Of pilot on the Minneso-
Ia. They reached Upper Small Point
where they had discovered that bait
was plentiful. Here they commenced
t. operate, and while taking the cap
tain on hoard their boats
THEY WE'RE ATTACKED
~ the people on shore and furiOusly
pelted with showers Of stones Men,
women aud children were engaged in
the assault. The Americans immedi-
ately withdrew to their vessel, their
lives being every moment imperiled.
4 man named Cricket offered his
services to Capt. Mcintyre to procure
bait if paid the sum of four dollars.
Cricket brought him to Spout Cove,
near his own home. and for halt the
sum first asked the Minnesota obtain
ed her required bait, and then having
landed. the pilot, proceeded to the
banks. The disposition of Goss has
been transmitted by the Governor of
Newfoundland to the Secretary OF
State for the Colonies. and the other
cases will 5e investigated and brought
under imperial notice as soon as the
evidence can he obtained. )"
The Herald commenting upon the
above dispatch. says This Incident tells
the whole story of
THESE NEwFOUNDLAND OUTRAGEs.
The coasting people. without color and
even pretence Of law, violently at
tack and drive of our fisherman, be-
cause they want to force them to buy
bait and fish from them. instead of
taking it themselves. But the treaty
gives us the right to catch for our
selves, and the exactions of Newfound
land are simply blackmail. The
shameful point in the matter is that
the Newfoundland authorities, though
they have known for two years that
this goes on, have not interferred for
the protection of our people or the
prevention of utterly lawless acts by
their own.
THE AUTHORITIES
have not in any case, SO far As We re-
member, officially interfered with our
fishermen. but they have tolerated or
their own coasts and BY their own peo-
pie q degree of lawlessness which
amounts to little better than piracy.
We hope Secretary Evarts will be
able presently to spare time from the
composition Of political speeches and
their delivery to attend to the protec-
ton of our fishermen. We under
stand perfectly that great bodies like a
department of state move slowly +;
but the American fishermen who sui
Tered at Fortune Bay are gray. and
they would, as We are confident, rather
ace themselves righted and protected
in their rights than to hear the clever
