Fish Out Of the Chesapeake.

FISH VUC UI VU6 chesapeake.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
NORFOLK, Va, August 15.-Complaints
are being made by the fishermen of the
Chesapeake bay Of the depredations of the
big fishing boats owned by the guano fac
tories hereabouts 1t is declared that these
boats with their patent apparatus are driv-
ing all the fish out of the lower Chesapeake.
The owners of the fisheries along the coast
where only edible fish are taken, complain
bitterly that the fishing boats take the yery
best fish in these waters for the fertilizer
factories, where good and bad alike are
ground up for fertilizers. Sportsmen have
also noticed the fact that fishing in the
bay is not as good as 1t used to be, and the
prospect is that some action will be asked
on the part of the state board of fisheries
and possibly the legislature itself.
