CAPT. sTUBBs IS MAD
At the Yarns Told About His.carpins Deputy
Sheriff Martin to Sea.

BANGOR, Juiy 3.-Capt. A. F. Srubbs
the irate Yankee skipper, who carried Dep
uty Sheriff Peter A. Martin TO sea on rhs
schooner Carrie A. Bucknam from East
port in the latter part of May, writes from
Cardenas. Cuba, explaining his position in
this singular proceeding, which caused snci
a sensation in marine circle, at the time.
He says that in Calais he shipped boy
named Herbert Sprague, who told him that
he had u mother and sstepfather living in
Campobello, who were perfectly willing for
him to take the voyage. A few days later
when the schooner was lying in Passama-
quoddy bay a crowd from Eastport, with
two deputy sherifis, boarded her and de-
manded the boy on the ground that he had
run away from his parents. who belonged
in Calais.
They stated that the captain was under
arrest for shipping Il minor. Upon inquiry
it was found that they had no warrant, and
Capt Stubbs drove the whole crowd into
their boats At midnight they came in
large numbers, and as Capt. Stabbs did not
wish to carry away the boy against the
wishes of his parents, he allowed them to
take WHi, Dut ftfussi 10 accompany iHtut
himself under any circumstances.
The next day the sheriff and posse again
appeared demanding SO or, as they stated
they would take the captain with them
This aroused his ire, and he declared
they had no authority and he should defend
himself and not pay dollar, and upon his
continuing obdurate all left the vessel except
Sheriff Martin. The following day the
schooner went to sea after the captain had of
fered Sheriff Martin passage ashore which
he declined.
The captain says. one night in the Bay of
Fundy fog took the starch out of the sheriff, ,
who WAS only too glad to be transferred to
the next inbound vessel He is ready to
answer any charges which may arise from
the occurrence. which he declares was a
scheme to extort money from him, and he
adds that he would have carried the sheriff
around the world before acceding to the
demands.

| VICTORIA, b. C., July 2.-The Colonis
to-day publishes the following giving III.
particulars regarding the seizure of the q
sealing sehooners of the Canadian feet by
the United States revenue cutter Corwin:
The Coquillam, for Vancouver, McClel,
Ian master. arrived at Sitka June 26 in
charge of Lieut.. Quinn and Assistant En-.
gineer Barton, and was turned over to the
United States collector of customs for vio-
lating the revenue laws.
The coquiliam was seized by Capt.
Hooper al Port Htchez. Prince William
sound. June %, for having blank mani.
festoes on board, showing neither cargo
nor passengers, and for entering and tow
ing vessels out of the ports of Alaska and
bringin. stores TO the British sealing fleet,
and receiving sealskins in return, within
the jurisdiction of the United States with
out entry or permit.
Her operations were observed bv Lieut..
). b. Quinn of the Corwin. who, disguised
in citizens clothing, had been TO Port
Etehez for the purpose of watching the
sehooners.
Two vessels were boarded, and, after
being given time for repairs, they were
ordered out of the harbor.
The seizure of the Coquillam leaves all
of the British sealing fleet in the northern
waters without supplies The news is great
surprise.
II was thought that the action of Capt.
Hooper of the Corwin was to cut of the
schooners from their source of supply, thus
starving them home. This will not be the
result with all, as some of the boats are
out fitted for the whole season. but few
may be compelled to return.
Capt. J. $. Cox. president of the Scalers
Association. says the question at issue is
not affected at all. The only wrongdoing
charged against the steamer is for going too
close to Alaskan soil to transfer the sup
plies consigned to sealers
