tity has been gathered there. The ice
gathered from tbe lake properly has aver
sged . inches in thickness, while that cut
from Swsrswonts pond An sdjunct OF the

There will be no scarcity of ice next

MENHADEN FISHERIES
Hearing Oh Fishing Laws-Attempt 10
Allow Fishing on the Coast.

WASHINGTON, Feb. IA large number
Of interested persons were present at a
meeting today Of the House committee on
fisheries, which is considering the bill to
allow the menhsden and msckereI fisheries
pursued within the marine jurisdiction Of
the United States, regardless Of the state
lsvs TO the contrary The menhsden fishing
interest was most largely represented.
Among the persons appearing in its be-
half we're d Mason, Round Pond, Ma ,
ard c. B Whtten, Portland. Me. The
menhsden fishers opened with an argument
in favor of the bill by VIM. F. Brown of
PhlAdelphis. who is largely interested in
menhsden fisheries. He declared the laws
passed by Maine, Massachusetts, and New
York are operated to des stroy the most i'm
portsnt menhsden fishery interests Of the
country. The coming and going Of men-
hsden WAS beyond the knowledge of any
man. yet the state legislatures sought to
paraiyzs the industry, but did not interfere
with or it iure other fisheries.
The L ,lted States hsd acquired from
Great Britain, under the treaty at Wash
iuaton, The rignt to take 6sh in Canadian
waters, yet citizens Of certain states of the
United States were seeking to deny 4 sim
liar right to the citizens OF other states.
From bis own bitter experience he could
tell how Maine fsh wardens had arrested
bis captains, seized his vessels and taken
his nets. His property in Maine today vas
almost valuless.
There was the great Casco bay full of
hsh last year With the crates locked. Fish
to the value $50 600 were lost and not one
soul profted by the law. The passage of
the pending bill would guarantee the hsh-
ermen against the des'ruc ion Of their prop
erty. All be asked was that his great it,
dustry should be placed under the care Of
4 commission created b. the national gov
eminent.
Mr.. Brown showed the menhsden fst-
cries to be Of vsst benefit to the farmers, a.
were they able TO furnish = superior fertil-
izsr q. ccss less than half Of the cos, of
Peruvian gusno.

Especial to the Kennebec JOURNAL.
GARDINER, Feb. 1.-The ice chain,
along the Kennebec river have been run
| nirg steadily sirce the big storm Of lss
week and thousands Of tons Of IS fine ice g.
| ever went into the Kennebec houses hs.
gone up The elevators in the seven days Just
passed. There is not so much ice ia the
houses TO show for the weeks work as i.
| us1si as the ice was only 10 TO | 2 inche
| thick when fret cut. 1t will, therefore, re-
quire 8 much longer time to harvest this
years crop ss q larger scresse must be cut
out TO fill the houses.
Where il lacks in qusntity it more than
makes up in quality, bsiug esps cislly clear
and solid and while The ice will cost the
hsrves ser more on the ton he will hsye the
satisfaction Of furnishing his customers
with superior article.
,The Journal man conversed with quite
a number of ice men yesterday ard it was
the general belief that the crop WAS ont
third housed. Alresdy The stimulus to
trade has been felt by our merchants.
Last week between $50 900 and $50, 600
were paid out, and much of it found its way
river. And still the work gees on though
not without its petty difficulties.
After battling with stubborn fall OF
snow, several Of the compsnies have been
obliged TO talk over may matters with the
men, but in nearly every case satisfac-
tory decision has been reached.
Yesterday some 40 OF the men under

THE SIMS.EDiSON TORPEDO.
II is Tested in Portsmouth Harbor, and
Excites Much Admiration.

LONDON, Feb. l7.-Thsre was All inter
ing ts st Moudsy in Portsmouth Hsrbor of
the new Sims-Eiison eIecIicsl torpedo.
fhe trial took place under the direction of
the admiralty officials, and representstiy rs
of most of the European powers were pres
ent. The naval attaches Of France. Ger
many, Russis, Austris, Italy, Spsin, sad
Turkey were among those who witnessed
The experiments, and the United States WAS
represe n,ed by Messrs. Posi- and Emory.
The torpedo was launched in Stokes Bay
from the steamer Drudge, which was loaned
for the purpose by the Armstrong;. Mr..
Sims personally operated the torpedo. 1t
was sent out 4 distance of mile and
quarter, and was under such perfect control
that the msnipuis,or turned it at will in any
direction while the Drudge was steAminy
rapidly along more than mile away. All
the witnesses expressed great admiration
for the invention. There is reason to be
lieve. however, that the admiralty will no,
adopt it unless compelled to, as the officials
have not forgotten their experience with
the Brennan torpedo. which was similar TO
the Sims + Olson in many respects, and for
which they paid E25 900. They have spent
over El0o 600 in tinkering up the defec;s
discovered IN tne praCticsi WORKING ot tue
weapon, and are now obliged to admit that
It is little more than costly toy. Disin-
terested experts, at the time the Brennan in
vention was on trial, urged that no purchase
be made until the torpedo had stood the
test Of long prscticsl work, but their advice
wss disre garded.
The best features Of the BreDnsn and Of
the present invention are admittedly the
creation of British army engineers, and
have been developed at the cost Of the tax
payers, and the argument is heard IN many
quarters that II would be only fair all round
10 wait and let these engineers perfect the
torpedo and get whatever credit there is to
be gained thereby while at the same time
saving good deal Of money for the people.
Experts admit that the Sims Edison inven
tion would displsce the Brennan IL adopted
as it is decidedly the better torpedo, but
they urge that it would be better to wait
until it mss stood the ties, Of actusl work
IL is reported that the inventors do not take
kindly 10 this idea, and that their terms are
immediate purchase or none at ALL This
puts the admiralty in the dilemms of beng
obliged TO buy smother incomplete weapon
or to run the risk Of having an invention
which is admittedly superior to the one in
use secured by some rival government.

HUGE TIMBER DEPREDATIONS.


WAsHrsGros, Feb. l7.-Special Agent
De Lambert of the interior department
spent four months investigating timber dep
relations along the Msnitobs border. from
100 to 200 miles west of Lake Superior
He reports that the stealing OF timber be-
longing to the United States government
has grown into 4 system Of vast proportions.
conducted by = we'll organized combination
Of men and capital, supplying about 80
sa~mills and employing hundreds Of labor
ers- Most Of the depredstors are Canadians,
with fes citizens Of the United States
and some Indians belonging to northern
tribes
This stealing has been going on for years
and is q great deal worse than the govern =
Ment ofiiclsls have ever suspected, Com
missioner Carter states the region is the
most inaccessible in the L aitei States, The
K.iny Lake River ard kindred stresms
form the boundary line between the two
coua atries for a great many miles. The
choicest Of timber is Gu. 90 this side and
rated across 70 the Canadian shore, where
it is utilized in the production Of lumber.
De Lsmoert's report is specific, owing
that thousands Of scres of timber land
have been ruthIessly depleted, and that the
eneroachments have been growing in ex.
tent from year 70 year. Commissioner
Carter states that sil the facts necessary to
enable the Government to proceed, have
been obtsined, ard that p,omps measure.
will be taken to check the depredstions.
