GOLDFISH FROM THE PACIFIC.
Rapid Growth of an Industry Which
May Soon Rival the East
ern Product.

New York Herald:
Codfishing in Pacific waters has
not until within the last two or
three years assumed the proper
lions of a great business enterprise.
Since it began, however, it has
grown so rapidly that it seems
likely soon to become a formidable
rival to the fishing and packing in
dustry of the Atlantic coast. In
deed, salt Goldfish from California
is already in competition with the
eastern product in st. Louis, Chi
cago and other great cities Of the
middle west, and its progress is
steadily toward the Atlantic.
The Pacific coast fisheries extend
from the Okhotsk sea, on the shores
of Kamschatka, to the Shumagin
Islands, off the line of Alaska. The
supply of Goldfish in these waters
is practically inexhaustible. They
can be caught wherever soundings
can be made, and the fleets engaged
i'm the business are always success
full in their work.
At Pescada, ten miles from San
Francisco, an extensive curing es-
tablishment has been located and
is doing an enormous business. 1t
is fitted up with the most APP
proved appliances for preparing
the fish for market and is operated
in connection with fleet
of six sea going vessels
which cruise and fish along the
coast of Alaska. These vessels go
out about the beginning of April
and return in October, sending
their catches" in the meantime to
