AMERICAN CRUISERS IN M
FOUNDLAND WATERS.
The denial that cruisers are sOOu
be sent to the Canadian fishing md
needs correction, since two sln
now II ting for that service aud will
held in readiness awaiting further
veiopmens. s. There is nothing OfI
tile nature in such a move. BetOn
Treaty OF Washington was ratified
was customary TO keep a vessel On
fishing grounds during the season
they were withdrawn, not because
treaty called for it, but for The re,l
that il was supposed all rights grant
by the treaty would be promptly accOl
ed to our fishermen, The action Of
mob at Fortune Bay aud The un1
pected action Of the English authOrH
in regard TO the matter are regarded
excellent reasons for again sending 4
cruisers into Newfoundland waters.
