FISH TRAPS ARE
TO Be ABOLISHED
So Says Olympia House, Which Passed
the Hansen-Edwards- Day Bill.
THE LIQUOR BILL TIED UP
Laid on the Table With Motion for
Reconsideration Which Can BE
Taken Up Amy Tine

Olympia, Wash. February H.-After
discussion lasting nearly the entire
day the house late this afternoon passed
the substitute house bill recommended
by Hanson. Edwards and Day, abol-
lsiIing fish traps. pound nets, wires,
fish wheels. purse nets and other fixed
appliances. and providing that only set
nets, gill nets and se4nes shall be used
within the public waters over which
the state Of Washington has exclusive
or concurrent jurisdiction. The minority
bill. which merely prohibited traps in
fresh water streams and within four
miles OF the mouth thereof. was indefi-
nitely postponed by vote Of So to II,
several members voting for its defeat
under the impression that the remain
ing bill would be amended to permit
traps to remain in Puget Sound After
the minority bill was killed. however,
the majority arbitrarily refused TO per-
init any such amendments to be made
to the Hanson Edwards Day bill, and
it passed as printed by a vote Of so to
g.
It was discovered this morning that
the Cline dispensary liquor bdll which
passed the house yesterday was tied
UP under a motion % reconsider the
vote by which it was passed yesterday.
Wnen F. r. Baker moved upon that
occasion to reconsider. Ross moved to
lay Bakers motion ON the table, and
his motion prevailed, thus the ques-
tiOn Of reconsideration is left open to
the house whenever II desires to take
II up. This morning the opponents of
the bill, seeing the position il was in,
attempted TO take the motion from the
table in order to take advantage OF
the changed ideas OF some Of the mem
bers who had originally supported it,
and secure its defeat. The attempt
was defeated by a vote Of So to IS. but
the motion still lies on the table and
the bill with it. Both sides are working
hard to control the house when the
matter comes up for final settlement.
The senate had no business on its
calendar this morning and after a brief
session. during which only routine mat
ters came up. adjournment was taken
till tomorrow.
