is much greater than last year.
At the East the improvement is more
moderate, and yet the aggregate of transac-
tons is quite cloer, though tho season is not
the busy one for some important trades At
the South there is distinctly better feeling,
owing to the advance in the price Of cotton.
Very little change is seen in the great in
dustres, though the demand for iron at
some points is distinctly improved. The
markets. for voollens is hardly significant at
this season, but rather better than year

Boston reports are quite satisfactory,

TONS OF PIKE CAUGHT
CANADIAN FISHERMEN FEAR NO
PROTECTIVE LAWS.

Tho Spawning Beds the Scene of Wanton
Destruction in tho Most Critical Seas on
of tho Year-vormontors indignant at
tho Outrage; But Holploss.
ALBuReH, April 22--Canadian fishermen
are shipping from 90 to 25 barrels of fish,
mostly pike, from this station every day,
and have been since the first of the month.
The fish are caught with seines in Missis-
quot bay, near the line, where the water 10
is rather shallow. 1t is the spawning ground
for tho pike in tho northern part of the
lake, and fishermen say that the catching OF
one fish at this season of the year-whils
thoy are spawning-is more destructive to
tho tribe and fishing interests generally than
a thousand would be after June l.
1t is extremely aggravating to the YER
mont fishermen, who are prohibited from
fishing even with n hook and line, to stand
by and see the Canadians draw senes and
use every other means to catch the fish.
1t seems to the common people as though
the State Fish and Game league
should bring the matter very forcl-
bly, before the secretary OF state, with
q view to bringing Canada to such terms as
would protect the fish in Lake Champlain
in Canadian territory during the spawning
season, or else have the present stringent
laws repealed.
1t is certainly one-sided affair, for,
while the United States is trying to stock
the lake with fish the Canadians haul them
out by the barrel with ssines and ship them
to the Boston and New York markets from
this station. There il no law by which this
outrage can be stopped as long as the fisher
men pay the small license required by the
Canadian government.

UTICA, n. V, April 22.-Bunco Steerer
o. Brien, who feeccd Mr.. Peck of Albany
out of $40. 900 in 1880, and three years
after WAS extradited from England and sem
fenced for 10 years IN Dsnnemora prison
for robbery in the third degree, has given
the authorities the slip.
O'Brien arrived in Utica Sunday, in
charge of Keeper Buck Of Dannemora prison.
He came here on writ of habsas cor
pus and Judge Coke remnnded him back
TO prison.
When he first arrived here O'Brien was
taken to Jail, but he has friends and rela-
tives in tho city, aud as lie did not like his
accommodations there, his friends, by dill
gent use of bosp tality, induced Keeper
Buck to allow him to be transferred 10 tho
mora pleasant precincts Of the BagGs
Hotel. ia fact, Buck evidently became
very much in love with Uticans, prominent
among whom was D. a. Dishler, aud the
plan was sdepty laid and worked like
charm.
While Buck and his friends wero busy
telling anxious inquirers that O'Brien was
at the Jail, he was. III fact, leaning up
against the polished bar OF the hotel drink
ing good health to his friends and long life
TO his period of freedom.
Buck said to-day: al amt making no
boiler, and had just a. lief tell O'Brien he
could 60 TO Montreal and back, and | know
he wouldn't run away
Later Buck admitted that O'Brien had
Eloped. He said ho left him for a moment
in his room to-day, and when he returned
O'Brien had gone.
From better information it would seem
O'Bren left tho city Wednesday noon, just
after Judge Coxe's decision had been rem
dered, and that be is now well on his way
to Cuba, as it is said if he reaches Havana
he will be safo.
While O Brien's case was in process of
argument, three detectives from Albany
were here, and one Of them remarked that
O'Brien was the most desperate man no had
ever known. Another officer complained
to the authorities Of the United States
Court that O'Brien was left unguarded and
alone in the hotel, bat The authorities had
nothing to do with him, as 10 had not been
turnsd over to their charge, but remained
in the care Of the keeper.
1t is evident that O'Brien had friends
and money behind him.

GUTHRIE, 0. r., April 20.-Twenty
thousand farms and II, 600 town lots were
the grand prizes given By the government
in the great land lottery, conducted in
Oklahoma yesterday afternoon. The great
Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indian reservation
OF 4, 200, 600 acres yesterday stood as it has
70" centuries, an unhroken wilderness, a
hunting ground for the Indian and a lair
for wild boasts. At sunset it was en-
pire occupied ard settled by 40, 900 active
people, who will build towns in day and
cause the wilderness TO blossom forth into
an industrious farming community. The

As the bour drew near the excitement

people on the coast line were racing wildly
