THE FISHERMEN ANGRY.
Lively Raids Among the Illegal Stur-
geon Catchers by j. III. Davis.

geon Catchers by j. III. Davis.
]. H. Davis, one of the patroImen of
the State Fish Com ission. returned from
the San Joaquin and Sacramento rivers
yesterday and reported having taken a
very large amount cf illegal sturgeon
gear from the waters of the streams.
These gears consist of long stout lines of
the best material, that are strung out into
the rivers and held in place by anchors
and floats. Each line is loaded with
hooks. and no matter what kind of fish
strikes the hooks 1t is sure to be caught
for the more it struggles the more hooks
become fastened into it. The use of this
teck.e has been prohibited by law, ana the
mere possession is evidence of guilt.
Davis was out ten DAYS, and he dragged
for the lines OF eleven camps. As result
of his labors he confiscated 10000 feet OF
sturgeon lines, fifty anchors and over So. :
000 hooks, the whole being valued at not
less than $500. As result OF this raid
there is less of these fish in the markets
than usual and the dealers are not in a
good mood in consequence.
