Agent Of Fish Commissioner Tells
Why Fish are Expensive LUXURY.


Mr.. John " Cobb, agent of the U.
8. Fish Commission. has been in Hilo
during the past week completing the
work Instituted here by DR.. Jordan
In conversation with representative
of the Tribune Mr.. Cobb spoke of the
great scarcity of fish here and the
high prices prevailing. state OF af-
fairs quite unwarranted by the actual
amount of edible fish in Hawaiian wa
tiers. At the present time as il seems
there is no protection for the fish in
habiting ponds and waters formerly
covered under .-awaiian laws by pri-
vate fishing rights and protected as
any other legal right against trespass.
The United States has enacted no
laws. and probably will not for cou-
pie of years. as Ii will take some time
for the Fish Commission TO embody
their efforts and researches in suitable
form, and for Congress to act upon the
same In the meantime the fish in
habiting these formerly protected wa
tiers are subject to the depredations
of trespassers. Mr. Cobb is of the
opinion that the late Hawaiian Legis-
lature should have temporarily proyid-
ed against this by local legislation.
This state of affairs accounts for the
present scarcity and high price of null
let AS to other fish the cause is the
combine among the fishermen. mainly
Japanese. Mr. Cobb was much inter
ested in the matter OF the attempt OF
Italian fishermen to engage in the in
dustry here last winter, the circum-
stances of which were related in the
Tribune of January 20. As will be
remembered the Italians stayed but
uriss<ims and lsst In disgust, having
caught more sharks t1es,' Pm

A big fire occurred at Germantown about
2 o'clock this afternoon which completely
wiped out all but one of the farm buildings
on the farm of Jacob Snyder, there only
being left a corn crib Mr.. Snyder had some
men employed saving wood in the COW
stable, which has installed in it large
engine for running the machinery for
crushing grain and chopping hay for feed
ing his milk cows 1t is supposed that a
spark blew from the smokestack of this
engine through one of the crevices In the
boards of the building and set fire to the
hay in the loft Samuel Reid of Boyds,
who was driving along the road saw a
large blaze coming from the top of the
barn and yelled "Fire.'' The men inside
heard his alarm and ran out just as the
the outside caught fire and the blaze
quickly communicated to others and to the
large barns used for the horses and also
the hay barn, which was near the cow
stable, destroying the buildings. three in
all, and the straw ricks on the outside.

All the contents of the building, includ-
ing many tons of hay. but no grain, and a
large engine and crusher and all other ma
chinery were entirely destroyed, entailing
a loss Of over $4,000, the buildings being
only partly covered by insurance. Fortu-
nately for Mr., Snyder, he had no stock in
the barn. Had the fire occurred an hour
or SO later he would have had any number

the second fire to occur on the place. both
being the result of an accident.

Fight on Tammany.
The local fight for mayor in Greater New
York eclipses in interest and bitterness any
thing in the way of campaigns ever held
in the empire state. There are approx
mately 615,OOO voters registered in the city.
and it is figured that all but per cent will
exercise their franchise
The anti-Tammany campaign managers
claim the utter rout of Tammany and d
clean-cut fusion victory for Seth Low and
the rest of the fusion ticket. Tammany
leaders are equally confident in their decla-
rations that Shepard will win out with
handsome plurality John c. Sheehan, for
mer leader of the New York city democ-
racy, still holds to his prediction made some
weeks ago that Seth Low will be elected
mayor by about $4,000.
The Tammany executive committee claims
Manhattan and the Bronx boroughs for
Shepard by 10000. Queens by $500, Rich
mond by 1000, and comedies Brooklyn to
the fusionists by 5000. leaving Tammany
a plurality on it's city ticket of 25,00O. The
Tammany leaders also predict the election
of their county and borough tickets in
Manhattan. thrty-four of the forty-four al
dermen in Manhattan and the Bronx, and
twenty-nine of The thirty-seven assembly

There are indications that the republicans
of New York state will retain a majority
