THE FISHERY QUESTION.
Statement Regarding the Cases OF the
American Schooner Monterey and the
Canadian schooner Sisters.

WARRINGTON, June 6.
VIM. ID. Lyman, chief of navigation of
the Treasury department has made the fol-
lowing statement in regard to the published
card OF VIM. L. Trefethen of Portland,
Maine, who cited the cases of the American
schooner Monterey, and the Canadian schoon.
er Sisters, to show our government officials
discriminate against the American owners.
The cases of the Canadians vessel Sisters
ana the American schooner Monterey, differ
IN the following respects The master of the
Sisters violated section 2S24 of the revised
statutes of the United States by not produc-
ing manifest to the boarding office when
entering the customs district of Portland and
falmouth, Maine. The penalty is not ex-
ceeding $500.
IL has been the practice of the treasury
department in 1866, when this law regarding
manifests first became applicable to foreign
vessels to mitigate the fine to $40 or $40, or
entirely remit, if the otfense WAS not will
fully committed according to special circum-
stances Of the case, named in the tonnage in
the vessel and variety of her cargo, and
whether she was or was not in ballast. The
master OF the Sisters was treated rs the mas
ter of any other foreign or American vessel
would have been in similar circumstances.
10 prevent the expenses accumulating against
'hS 'cesSi the uuc was Dy Telegraph
for which the master paid. The Monterey
and her cargoe were forfeited under section
4337, Revised Statutes, for going upon a
foreign voyage under fishing license. the
latter having no permit to touch and trade
The policy of the law may be bad or it may
be good, as respects the interests of Ameri-
can citizens at all events that is the law
The Monterey was valued at 5000 and her
cargo of Holsters about $780, The vessel
and cargo were llbelled at Boston, a matter
in which the district attorney had no discre-
tion upon, the offense being reported to him
by the collector OF customs. The depart
ment in consideration Of the fact that the
owner was an American citizen, and that his
ohense was not wilfnl, in May, 1885, remit
ted the forfeiture of the vessel and cargo
upon the payment of the small fine of $40
and costs of court. The real cause of the
grievance which Trefetheu had was that the
government, by its officers, did not entirely
ignore his offense. They did not ignore it be-
cause like most American citizens in places
of trust they were willing to perform their
simple duty and for the same reason the
customs officers held the Sisters till her case
could could be legally acted upon.

New YORK, June 6.


VIM. Metcalf of Manchester. England,
champion swimmer of Clyde, who has won
numerous matches and accomplished several
wonderful diving fests, arrived from England
few days ago.
Metcalfs visit to this country is to meet all
comers in swimming contests from one to ten
miles and attempt to dive from any height
when the water is deep enough at an attitude
of 150 feet.
He called at the Police Gazette office yes
terday to ascertain what arrangements he
could make with Richard K. Fox to dive of
Brooklyn Bridge, he was informed it was
against the law to make the attempt, and Fox
explained how Odlum lost his life, but Met
calf, who appeared to be full Of pluck, said
he had patent contrivances whereby he could
make the dive in safety.
All persuasion appeared fruitless and the
famous English diver stated he would make
the attempt in spite of everybody at all haz-
ards on July l6.
He would attempt the feat sooner but his
drop swing catches would not arrive from
