cape from Seizure.

GLOUCESTER, Mass, Aug 5.
captain Jewett of the schooner Margaret
Smith of Portland, arrived at Gloucester from
the Bay of Lawrence, and tells how he came
near being seized by the Canadian officials at
Malpoqnepei. The captain reports that he
called there to buy wood and water and was
boardt by officers who informed him that he
had been fishing within the three mile limie.
which he denied. The officer said a vessel
that was seen there answered 10 the descrip-
ton of his vessel. and that the name had
been covered up and the name on the boats
erased so AS to conceal her identity. The
vessel was going to be held for violation of
the fishing laws. Capt. Jewett said he would
like to have an investigation before the seiz-
ure was made, which the officer granted 1t
was found that the vessels name on the boats
was not erased, nor the name on the vessel
concealed. The officers brought several
native fishermen to testify against Captain
Jewett On examination it was shown that
the vessel which run inside the limit fishing
was the schooner Mollie Adams of Glouces-
ter, Captain Jacobs, which vessel answered to
the description of the schooner Margaret
Smith. 1t was shown that the Mollie Adams
had been fishing in shore and the name of
the vessel erased from the boats The officer
apologized to the captain for the detention
but said he would seize the Molie Adams if
caught. Captain Jewett says to practice such
tricks as Sol Jacobs did, to get other vessels
ting any part of the Canadian laws, is unjust
and deserves to be punished.
