cessions and property will be made in a
few days. The subject was discussed at
request of Attorney General Knox the
war department will designate a suitable
person on the isthmus to receive the
property there for the United States.
It has been decided that the payments
shall be made in Paris. A syndicate Of
French bankers will advance the $4,000.
600 necessary to liquidate the Indebtedness
of the United States to the canal com
pany. The money will be handed to the
company by Assistant Attorneys General

In connection with the discussion OF
the origin Of the word graft" it Is re-
marked that the same word is in use in
Australia and New Zealand, with en-
actly the opposite meaning We give it.
Its origin appears to be uncertain therd
as here. In the Antipodes graft
means working yourself. and not, rs
here, working somebody else. One
speaks Of a Job as hard graft"
meaning that it is genuine work, and
to call man good little CRATER" Is
a compliment implying that he is able
at his work.

MAckEREL SCARCE.

Portland, Me-, April 27.-The Portland
Express says. tonight:
The mackerel fishing has gone all to
pieces and for the past nine days prac.
tically none have been caught by the
immense feet of seiners and METERS
now in Southern waters. Dealers at
this port and at the other great fish
centers along the North Atlantic coast.1
are becoming very much discouraged
and say the outlook is about as bad as
it can be.
Charles A. Dyer, OF c. A. Dyer & Co.,
Union Wharf, one OF the veteran,
mackerel dealers Of New England, be-
lieves that the cold and stormy wealth.
er is the cause of the lack Of fish.
THE water Is too cold for Them"
said Mr.. Dyer to the Express today
land the fish are hanging to the botI
tom in deep water where they cannot =
be caught. Mackered also feed on live
bait and this same reason of cold and
stormy weather has kept this bait in
deep water. ... Az
If this cold weather continues very .,
few mackerel will be sailed but the
fish will all be sold fresh. 1t Is also
probable that the Southern fishing will
not amount to much and that when !,
the mackerel next make their appear
ance it may be in the vicinity Of Sandy
Hook and Barnagat, farther North. .'
IF you have noticed it is during dry,
hot Summers that we catch the most
mackerel for then the bait comes to
the top of the water and the mackerel u
follows after to get it. The mackerel :

them.
This is the time now for the METERS =
to get intheir work for most of their
fish are caught on the full of the moon
or during the period up to the time
the moon reaches it's height. When It
begins to wan, or on what Is called the
dark of the moon" the seiners catch
most Of their fish. OF course IL the
mackerel show in the daytime then the
selners have a chance to get at them,
but generally speaking most Of the fish
caught by the latter are taken In the
night when the moon is on the wane.
From now until the 18th of the month
when the moon will be full the METERS
will have their turn, IL there are any
fish to be caught, and then after that
date when the moon begins to get g.
smaller the seiners will begin to show
returns. /.
