81 Ahes a. TIC Chioi I1otei III tnlse oily last
at Saturday, all the members present.
Mt The President, Mr.. Buckingham, read q
v letter from Livingston Stone, stating that
he the United States Fish Commission will not
re maintain hatchery on the McCloud river
J. this season, nor would they endeavor to
n take any salmon eggs on this Coast.
d A communication was read from w. B.
|. Bradford, of the Sacramento Packing Com
If pany, stating that Constable Jones was
" talking of selling his boat and leaving the
J. service of the State. Mr.. Bradford asked
Q that Mr. Jones be retained. He said that
v Mr.. Jones was the right man in the right
n place he knew the river and those en-
+ gagged in fishing, and was the only man
n that the Greeks, Portuguese and others would
Il respect Allow him to leave the river, and
! you at once turn over its waters to the
a depredations of lawless lot of pirates. He
said that the canneries would guarantee to
pay Constable Jones for the months of
e July and August $500.
: Mr.. Jones appeared before the Board and
. contracted TO patrol the river during the
e months of July and August with two boats
y for $500.
Commissioner Redding referring to 4
statement made by Mr.. Carberry at the
, last meeting of the Board, said he desired
TO correct that statement. as it reflected
I upon the integrity of the old Board of Fish
5 Commissioners, of which his father was a
: member. Mr.. Carberry stated that 5000
, had been appropriated for the construction
of fish ladder on Hat creek, 5000 only
having been used, intimating that the bal
ance of the appropriation had been pocketed
by the Commission. This was entirely
false. The money appropriated came out
of the general fund, and the Act provided
, that any money remaining after the actual !
expenses had been paid would revert to the
fund, and even were the Commissioners |
DESTROYS of using the money such thing
would be impossible. twenty-five hun |
dred dollars was expended in the construc- |
ton of the ladders the bills were passed |
upon by the Board of Examiners and found |
to be correct The statements, he claimed,
were false in every particular. The state
ment made by Mr.. Redding was concur
red in by the other members of the Board.
A letter was received from Otto Graman,
Fish Commissioner of Wyoming, asking
for rainbow trout eggs.
The District Attorney of Alpine county
complained by letter of dams being con-
structed in the streams of that county
without proper fish ladders.
On motion of Mr.. Dibble, the matter of
adopting plans and specifications for fish
| ladders was referred to Commissioner Rcd
ding, with full power to act
In speaking of the Shelley hatchery Mr..
Dibble said that out of the 10000 salmon
eggs received % 600 had been Matched and
were thriving nicely. Forty thousand
rainbow trout eggs had also been Matched
without perceptible loss, and have been va
riously distributed. Seven thousand land
| locked salmon have been planted in indie /
pendence lake. There are 100000 trout l
three weeks old at the Shelley hatchery {
now ready for distribution. Twenty-Five l
| thousand have been planted i'll Sonoma I
county streams, and Is, 600 in Modoc Fully I
| 100000 more trout will be Matched this
season. I

| by Commissioner Redding, and adopted g
unanimously Il

cially with the hatchery on the McCloud river | Y
the United States having Withdrawn its aid
