THE TROUBLES OF THE rRap-SEr MEN

The trap-netters in the Potomac, within the
District limits-about nifty in numoer-are In
trouble, as the legal season for fishing is about
to come TO a close, and very few shad and herring
have been caught. Last season it was so late be
fore the fish commenced to run that serious losses
were sustained, and the same condition OF things
exist this season On an average these trap nets
and outfits have cost from 500 to $500 each
quite heavy plant for the class OF persons en-
gagged In these fisheries, many OF whom owe the
money invested. Now, though the fish are Just
commencing to run, they by law are compelled TO
cioSe operations the list day OF June Last year
the same state OF things existed. bat Congress be-
ing IN session, joint resolution was passed ex-
.enolhg the fishing season for that year. Not
apprenensive OF recurrence OF another backward
season, no legislation for future years by Con-

see II some means cannot be devised TO relieve
them They say that even should the weather
prove good until June 1st they will not be able TO
get out OF the hole they are in and the results Will
certainly be disastrous to most OF them. 1t Is
probable that they will consult with Prof Baird

the power to extend the time, IL is thought Il at
tney might suspend the execution OF the law until
the END or June, which would afford the relief
ueeueu. IN ordinary seasons, the fishermen say
Cne present law Is wholesome one.
