from Delaware City, who has many poats
and seines now catching the big hsh on
the Mispillion River, has been employ
mo nou-residents of the state in taking
the fish. On Monday last he was prose
cuted bv Charles II Schubert, State Flsn
Commissioner, who came to Milford and
swore out the complaint. Officers Hili
and Sapp took a tug boat and hastened
down the river to the bay, where they
arrested 7. +. Sadler, seized SIX OF MS
boats and nets, and brought prisoners

Cullen fined the defendants nifty dollars
in each case. or three hundred dollars III

Ter Maid the three hundred dollars by
check on The Delaware City Nauonai
Ranly which was accepted after being en-
dorsed bv George H. Hall. The boats
and nets are worth fully one hundred
and fiftv dollars each and six OF them
are therefore worth nine hundred dollars
which added 10 the fine of three hundred
dollars makes Mr.. Sadler twelve nun
dred dollars loser by the employing OF
uon-residents of the state. The loss OF
the six boats and nets in the height OF the
season will also entail an indirect loss OF
as much more and by the employing OF
non-residents Mr.. Sadler is fully $4,000
loser.
MI. Sadler has employed Senator Hig-
gins in the case, and on Wednesday, III
the presence of witnesses, Mr.. Sadler de-
manded of Constable Hill that the SIX
