FISHERMEN WILL FIGHT
CANADIAN CUTTERS
Smuggle Cannon Aboard Tugs to
Defend Craft.

DUNKIRK. N Y. Aug. 1.-THE &C
ton of the Canadian revenue cutter
Petrol In firing upon and nearly sinking
the fishing tug Silver Spray. from Erie,
has aroused in the Dunkirk fishermen a
desire to retaliate. Small cannon were
struggled aboard several of the tugs
yesterday. it is said, and several cap
tains have privately expressed their
readiness, should the Petrol repeat its
warlike actions, TO reply in kind.
The Petrel's captain. the fishermen de-
clare. has not been careful to stay on
his own side o: the line. and has be-
come so arrogant that they dare not ap-
proach within three miles of the bound
airy. The Silver Spray incident has
brought the twenty captains fishing from
this port to decision to defend them
selves.
Several weeks ago the Petrol captured
and towed to Port Colborne. Ont, the
tug Kittie D., which at the time. as since
proved by measurements. was in Ameri-
can waters. This was the spark in the
fishermen's breast which the Silver

churches of that circuit participated.
In spite of threatening rain, at least

Benjamin and Franklin Bryan, Wright
and Kindiay; recitations and songs by
children. and excellent music by the
Kings Valley Band Refreshments were
served to all.
Isaac N Shipley, for sixty years a
resident OF this county, near Boyds. AMI
who moved to Bel Air, Hartford county,

WALL STREET TALK.

Wall Street heard many absurd ru-
mors in explanation OF the rise, as. for
example, that the Delaware and Hudson
and the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western would guarantee four per cent
dividends on the common stock. This
was later varied by saying that the sec
ond preferred would be retired and the
common placed on a dividend basis by
the new but unnamed controlling in
terest. This yarn was never seriously
considered. nor was the rumor that the
Wabash proposed TO enter New York
via the Reading system. thus giving the
Rockefeller-Gould interest a direct
transcontinentaI route.
Men usually well informed as TO the
concernsof the Reading system are firm
in their belief that the financial con-
troll OF the property is now vested in
the Pennsylvania Railroad and Lake
Shore and that much OF the very large
sum of ready money recently acquired
by the Pennsylvania was used in financ-
ing the deal, which was put through
for the chief purpose of dominating the
output and transportation OF anthracite
coal.
These men believe that the shares
controlling the Reading will be allotted
pro rata among the coal roads, which
now own the majority interest in the
Lehigh Valley.
