FALL OFF IN THE CATCH.
Fishermen Getting Rest They Do Not
Enjoy-The Cold Snap and Clear
Water to Blame.

For the past three days the run of
salmon has fallen of to such an ex-
tent that many Of the gill net fish
ermen have not averaged over one
fish per haul. AS a result the canner-
les have not been working full time
and the fishing business, which start
ed with su,h a boom, has been de-
cidedly slack.
But. strange to say. neither the fish
ermen nor the cannerymen seem the
least discouraged on account Of the sud-
den falling of in the catch. On the
contrary they say the lull in the run
was to be expected and, coming as it
does, argues a better season from this
time on than for several year past.
The cause Of the fall OF in the catch.
according to the fishermen. is first.
the cold snap Of last week, which
lowered the temperature Of the river
water several degrees. and second. the
extraordinary clearness Of the water
in the river. due to the absence Of
freshets, etc, enabling the salmon to
see the nets and avoid them. The
first cause has passed and gone and.
to overcome the second. the fishermen
are moving down toward the bar and
setting their nets in the rougher wa
ter. The fishermen do not expect a
late run. in fact, they are counting on
having a majority of the boats out of
the river by the end Of August.
The union barge was out yesterday
on brief snagging trip and will go
out next week on a general clean up
Of the fishing grounds.
