| ent Mather, of the State fish hatcheries,
( said this morning that 100000 salmon eggs
were placed in the tributaries of Hudson
river last year. The 0swego and Salmon

numbers of salmon being seen in Claren-

was confirmed last week by several speci-
mems of salmon from this stream, sent To
| Commissioner Blacklord A letter ac-
companyipg the fish said the brook is
literally swarmipg with salmon for a

ment to stock Hudson river will be thor
| oughly successful as New York State car
make and enforce laws 10 prevent the pre-
mature catching of the fish.
