Indicators in the Engine Houses

Fire alarm indicators have been
placed In the Friendship, Phoenix,
Delaware, Reliance and Weccaco en-
CINE houses and the Fame hose house.
These indicators were tested few days
since and found to work in the most
accurate mar rer. The cost of placing
them in all the fire companies houses,
and also the battery room at the City
Hall, was but 1000, and there is no
doubt but they will greatly increase
the efficiency of the department.

The Globe says The people of the United
States, we hope, will not approve the seizure
of the Nova Scotian schooner Sisters, made
at Portland, Me-, Monday. The master Of
Sisters proved, by going to the custsms house
to make the usual entry, that he had no idea
of ting illegally. When the fishery clauses
Of the Washington treaty ceased to be in OPP
Grafton, the Canadian government did not
drive United States fishing vessels out OF its
waters at once or seize those that persisted in
taking fish.
1t consented to an arrangement which al
lowed the Americans to fish from the first Of
July to the close Of the season without COM
pensation. When. at the opening Of the
present season, Canada found it necessary to
enforce the tenor of the treaty Of 1918, ample
warning was given to all concerned. II the
United States government saw ft by way Of
reprisals to require Canadian fishing vessels
taking their catch of fresh fish TO U. 8. port
to be provided with manifests, they should
have given timely notice to those who must

PORTLAND, May 26.
meeting of the Portland Board of Trade,
held Wednesday forenoon, to take action on
the ease of the seizure of American vessels
nv Canada, was called to order by President
Bhbon, who briefly stated the object of the
meeting. Mr.. M. N. Rich gave concise
history of the treaty relations between the
limited States and Canada. Ex-Mavor Wal.
ker advocated wisdom and forbearance in the
treatment of this question, but firm action
should be taken on the questions now pend
inq c. H. Tobias said the questions should
be met calmly, but advocated retaliatory
measures. If we can't buy bait in Canadian
ports thew should not be allowed to trade in
our ports. The following resolutions, offered
BY ex-Mayor Walker, were adopted:
Whereas, the fishery interest has ever been
regarded by the general government as not
only one of the mos: valuable and important
industries of the country as source of food
supply, but also viewed as invaluable in
schooling material resources from which to
draw the crews of its navy 10 case of war
Whereas, the complications of present in
ternational laws render it almost impossible
for the class of people engaged in the fishe-
ries to understand the construction of the
laws governing fisheries as defined by those
administering the same at the various Gus
toms districts, rendering it so extremely
hazardous to American fishermen to engage
in the business in any proximity to British
territory that it has come to be serious dam
tls I'll,
have fallen upon those entirely blameless of
any infraction of the laws or intentional nom
compliance with the technical customs regu-
latlons by their agents, therefore,
Resolved, That the members of Congress
from this State be and hereby are requested
to impress upon the executive department of
the general government the great necessity
of the earliest possible action to settlement
OF the existing embarrassment to the fishing
interest and for the release of vessels and
property, now detained at Canadian ports, in
order to maintain our perpetual friendly in
tercourse and close alliance that has long
prevailed between the two great nations.
MIR. c. IL. Fobes and others opposed the
sdopion of the resolutions, if not amended,
on the ground that there was an implied re.
fection upon Senator Frye, and because they
were themselves in favor of retaliatory meas
ures. The resolutions as amended by Mr..
FObes were then adopted
TWAS voted to ask tie members of Con-
gress from this State to obtain in the pro-
posed amendments to the revised statutes,
