CLOSING THE LOBSTER FACTORIES.
Compliance With Frances Demand Causes

Compliance With Frances Demand Causes
Suffering in Newfoundland.
ST. GEORGE BAY, N T., July 13.--Sir Baldwin
Walkers proclamation closing the British lob
ster factories along the coast of Newfoundland
is practically an edict of starvation to hun
dreds Of people, and unless the people of
Halifax and other parts of Canada organize a re-
heffund great restitution if not starvation must
ensue. The scattered people of the west coast
are absolutely dependent upon the fisheries.
But the most important questions is
will the British government compensate
the thousands of people whom they
prohibit from making living. These sixty
factories are closed down by the British war
ships at the demand of French naval officers
without any regard to their interference or
otherwise with French factories or fisheries.
The French admiral does not claim that a
single one OF these factories interferes with his
people, but says that they arc in violation of
the modus vivendi and must therefore close
down without any regard to the effect upon
the helpless people of the coast.
