PAUL JONES' REMAINS.
Body to Be Permanently Deposited at
ANNAPOLIS

A dispatch from Annapolis says: Gov.
Warfield has received a letter from Paul
Morton, Secretary of the Navy, In response
to the governors suggestion that the re-
mains of John Paul Jones shall be deoos-
tied in the Naval Academy Chapel on Peggy
Stewart day, October 10. The governor
called attention to the fact that during the
summer the great body of officers and mid
shipmen will be absent from the academy,
and that 1t will be impracticable to pro-
vide fitting ceremonies until later The
governor is very anxious to make the Gel
ebratfon of Peggy Stewart day a great
event this year, and the response OF Secre-
tary Morton, he believes. gives assurance
that his plans can be carried out. The Sec
rotary has decided that the body must he
brought over during the summer and de-
posted in a temporary vault until the
crypt In the academy is completed The
governor understands that the permanent
vault will be completed by Peggy Stewart
day and that the final entombment can
take place then with fitting ceremonies. He
believes that the Maryland societies of New
York and Chicago will visit Annapolis on
that date and take part in the funeral
exercises, and that the old senate chamber
will at that time be restored to Its original
form. The governor thinks that the society
of the Sons of the American Revolution will
take great interest in the Paul Jones cere-
monies on account of Gen. Porter. who was
at one time president general of the order
The letter from Secretary Morton to Gov.
" 90 ''-'N NAVY DEPARTMENT.
WASHINGTON, D. c., May IL, 1903.
His Excellency the Governor of the State
of Maryland:
'Sir-The department acknowledges, with
many thanks. the receipt of your very
courteous letter of the 18th instant where
in you express, for the people of Maryland,
your appreciation of the action of the Pres
ident, and myself as head of this depart-
ment. in deciding upon the United States
Naval Academy at annapolis as the most
fitting place for the final reDose of the re-
mains of John Paul Jones'
your suggestion that the transfer of the
remains from France to the United States
and their deposit in the memorial chapel at
the Naval Academy be deferred until next
fall can only be met in part. 1t Is consid-
cred most appropriate to effect the en-
barkation in a French port during the resi-
dence in France of our present ambassador
to whose Jealous interest and search the
discovery of the remains Is largely due.
"A vault will be prepared at the Naval
Academy for the temporary reception OF
the remains until a fitting time arrives
when they can be deposited finally with all
due ceremonies. Very respectfully,
PAUL MORTON, Secretary.

FISH POUNDS
A REAL, MENACE

The Engineer Corps of the United States
army is now regulating in a systematic
manner the construction of the fixed trap-
nets, or fish pounds. which are used SO ex-
tensively along the New Jersey coast In the
east and in the Puget sound and Columbia
river districts in the west, in connection
with the fishing industry. The War De-
partment. through the Engineer Corps. first
began giving attention to the location of
these immense fish traps uy private parties
and companies about year ago. Prior to
that time the fishermen evidently were al
lowed to locate their pounds off shore wher-
ever they desired. and as a result the traps
constituted serious menace to the small
pleasure boats and fishing vessels which
were obliged to keep in close to the shore,
owing to the roughness OF the sea.
Particularly along the coast of New Jer-
sey and in the Puget sound was the loca-
ton of these fish pounds without govern
ment supervision potential danger TO nav
fgators of the waters near the shore. BY
reason Of the employment of the immense

structions and at nighttime vessels navigat-
ing along the shore might accidentally col
Tide with the traps and be wrecked. But
within the past year the War Department
has made some changes in the conditions.
In the fishing districts along the Atlantic
coast the War Department has defined the
areas within which these pounds may be
built. and each individual or company that
desires to locate fish trap must first OBJ
tain permission from the department to do
so. Under the new rules prescribed by the
department the pounds cannot be located
closer than quarter of mile from the
shore, and this rule permits the small boats
to sail along the shore without danger OF
encountering a substantial mass of poles
and netting. Open spaces are left opposite
the life saving stations along the shore and
no fish pounds may be built in front of these
stations.

The owners of the traps are also required
by the department to display white lights
al night of sufficient power to afford pro-
lection against collision by vessels with the
traps and the maintenance of effective fog
signals on the traps is also required. Be-
fore a permit for the construction of the
traps will be issued by the War Depart
ment the applicant must produce license
from the state authorities proof of his
right to fish The construction of the traps
must be performed under the supervision of
an officer of the Engineer Corps in charge
of the district and according to plans APP
proved by the department.
The building of traps in the Puget sound
and Columbia river fishing districts must
also be done under supervision of the En-
g.neer Corps and the officer in charge of the
district must give his approval to the loca-
ton of the trap, which must be out of the
line of navigation. During the past twelve
months about 200 permits have been issued
for the building of traps in the Puget sound
OF the New Jersey coast about fifty-ive
pounds have been authorized by the officials
of the War Department.

fixed traps fish were being destroyed in
large numbers. The War Department,
however, has no jurisdiction whatever over
the fishing, that industry being controlled
by the states, which issue licenses to fisher
men operating off the shores of the states.
The fish traps however. are of such size
and construction that they may be properly
classed as Instructions to navigation, and
under the act of Congress passed March 3,
1899, prohibiting the obstruction of ports,
harbors and other waters of the United
States, the War Department was authorized
to take hand in removing the menace to
the navigation of the waters near the
shore
The fish pounds or fixed traps employed
generally along the Jersey coast are made
of nets stretched between poles set on the
bottom of the ocean. The trap consists of
a guiding wall or leader" approximately
LOCO feet long, built of poles and netting
and located at right angles with the shore
line The poles are placed about eighty
feet apart ard are tied together at the top
by a continuous wire cable about one-half
inch in diameter. At the far end of the
leader, from the shore. there is a heart
shaped trap. 10 feet wide and so feet long,
into which the fish swimming either I'D or
down the coast are led by means of the
guiding wall. The heart-shaped trap opens
into a sort of pocket about so feet long
by 20 feet wide. The trap and pocket
also constructed of long poles and netting.
and the poles of the pocket are guyed to
anchors on the bottom of the ocean, form
ing perfect network ABOUT the pound.
In the pounds off the New Jersey coast
the poles used are about foot in diameter
and of such length that when they are
sunk to depth of ten or twelve feet In the
sand they extend about eight or ten feet
above the water surface at high tide. 1t
can be readily surmised that such suhstan-
tial construction in the path of small yes
sells would constitute a serious obstruction,
and when the traps were located wherever
the fisherman desired, at varying distances
from the shore line, they were particularly
dangerous.
Ordinarily the pounds were located in
water having a depth greater than eighteen
feet. The pounds were usually built in
April and were used until December. when
the nets were taken in, but the poles were
left in place In some instances several
traps were built in line forming a barrier
from the shore more than half mile
long.

Fishermen In the Puget sound district
frequently built immense fish pounds in the
sound without regard for uniformity of dis
lance from the shore line. In these pounds
the builders frequently brought down Ore
gon pines from seventy to eighty feet long
and used them in the construction of the
traps. Traps of this character of construc-
ton it is declared, would easily wreck
large ocean steamers should one collide
with the immense piles.
Until the Engineer Corps of the army took
the matter in hand no lights or signals of
any kind were displayed on these large OBJ

Fond of Sylvester Scovel.

He was very fond of Sylvester Scovel,
who died few months ago in Havana.
Scovel underwent more peril and risked his
life oftcner than any American who was
in Cuba during the Instruction. Gen. Co
meZ appreciated his adventurous bravery,
and in the last year of the instruction he
allowed Scovel to come to his camp to in
terview him on the Spanish proposition for
autonomy, though he had promised to hang
any one who undertook to approach him
on the subject, and he did hang some OF
the Spanish emssaries along with his own
followers who were ready to propose it.
He also had great liking for Walter
Barker the United States consul at Sa qua,
In Santa Clara province. Consul Barker
had been intensely moved by the starva-
ton and suffering caused by the reconcen-
tration. and had secured some partial meas
tires OF relief for the non-fghting popula-
ton. Gen. Gomez was grateful for this

may be supposed they contained much val
liable information regarding the actual CON
dition and the prospects of the insurrec-
ticn. Yet Consul Barker never was deceived
or misled
After the war between the United States
and Spain ended and Cuba in a way
was free, the great problem was the atti-
tude of Gen. Gomez. Short-sighted Ameri-
can military officials in Cuba with an ex-
aggerated notion of their own dignity, pro-
posed to ignore him. He on his part re-
manned in Santa Clara province with his
followers quietly but effectively resisting
all the efforts to secure the disarmament
of the so-caled insurgent army. Every
body in Cuba and some sensible people In
Washington realized that those insurgent
followers of Gomez must be got to disband
and return to their homes. Finally, Presi-
dent Mckinley met the situation squarely.
He sent an olive branch to Gen. Gomez by
a special commissioner. The military Of
