1t was storm swept water front yes
terday, but a great deal worse outside.
During the morning three coasters came
in from the eastward and reported very
heavy sea on. Three fishermen were
reported in by j. ". Trefethen before
noon. The Mary E. Hagan with 10000
pounds Of cod and paddock, Albert ".
Black with 10000 pounds cod and had
dock, and the Menett with 5000 pounds
cod and paddock. The fishermen gath
cred about the stove in Mr.. Trefethen's
Office and discussed the outlook. They
have found it very hard OF late to keep
from. losing their gear. For example
Wednesday, off this coast, the fishermen
were forced to take in their gear very
suddenly, and they were Obliged to leave
more or less of it. In the case OF the
schooner Oliver Hadlock, the crew were
unable to recover their gear and were
obliged to leave it moored outside They
may recover it after the storm is over,
but If so it will be in a very damaged
state. "That's what takes the profit out
of the business" was the way an old
skipper put it. .rs-e
A lobster smack came up the harbor
under difficulties. Even when between
the breakwater and the wharf, she was
under double reefed mainsail and iib.
The Partisan will bring over 100 boys
from thesslums of London and Liverpool.
They will be taken from here over the
Grand Trunk to Canada, where homes
have been provided for them in good
families. AS usual Mr.. Owen will be in
charge of the boys. This consignment
will be..sent out by the wonderfully sue
thousand boys from the hopelessly "sub
merged TENTH" as General Booth would
say, to good Canadian homes. These
boys commonly find homes among the
farmers. There are still opportuniti es
there for all wEo want to work. and as
was once the case in Maine. boys are
wanted on the farms especially in the
new and sparsely settled sections. AS
soon as the steamer arrives the boys will
be forwarded by special train.
what will Clancy get" is a question
of good deal of Importance with many
of e.longshoremen, who. recalling the
suit against the General Ames, are won
dering what damages Judge Webb will
deem it proper to award PatrickCIancey,
who wassinjured while atsswork discharg-
ing her cargo in Januauary. Judgment
was given for clancy by Judge Webb,
and yesterday at noon Marshal Donovan
and Deputy Marshal Smith went to
Rockland where they will sell the three
master today under an ord er of the
court. The General Ames was built in
Camden in 1881, and is a fine schooner,
one of the best of the Maine built feet.
The award to be made later on will be
looked for with great interest both by
the men who are employed in the work
of discharging schooners and by the
owners.
