THE FISHERY DISPUTE.
Americans Make Complaint AgsIust NewiOuud
land Officials.

Washington, D. c. (SpeciaD The
State Department has received some Bit
ter complaints from American owners
of fishing vessels against the Newfound-
land officials for interfering with what
they regard as their treaty rights to 6sh
within Newfoundland territorial waters.
Only few days since an American
fishing smack was seized at a Newfound-
land port because several months ago
she had, it was alleged, shipped some
Newfoundlanders from the Bay of Is
lands. The American Shipowners felt
that this was an infractioll of their right
to ply their vocation in those waters as
guaranteed by. treaty
The State Department has been ex-
changing notes on this subject wish the
British government, and so far there has
been no friction between the two govern
mentS, though naturally the American
fishermen and the local Newfoundland
authorities have at times shown some
heat. The State Department has not
been able to make direct issue with the
Newfoundlanders with respect to their
right TO make it a punishable offense
to ship Newfoundlanders within their
own waters. 1t is not quite clear, how
ever, whether, while admitting the rights
of the Newfoundland authorities to pun
ish their own people who ship on an
American vessel in violation of local
law, it is prepared to concede the amen
ability to Newfoundland law of Amer
can shippers who ship such men.

with fright, and were soon choking with
the dense smoke that filed all the halls
and their calls.
That most of them did not perish is
due to the recent installation of system
oy which in emergencies every cell in a
tier can be opened simultaneously with
all the others. When the extent and
danger of the blaze became apparent the
warden marshaled his regular freight

at work.

utter disregard of the danger TO them

the densest smoke when they brought
out IN their arms the last of the women
prisoners.
The fire bells and the shouts of the
men at work could be heard all over the
island, and in the hospitals and buildings
OF the other institutions there was a
panic, which was Quilted with difficulty
by the nurses, physicians and keepers.
Although only part of the convicts
were used in rescuing the women, those
who remained locked in their cells made
frantic appeals to be allowed to help. AS
the srceams of the women penetrated to
their cells some of the convicts fell upon
their knees, beating the bars with their
fists and imploring the guards to let them
out to fight the fire. When this was re-

guards go TO the rescue, promising that
they would be their own jailers. The
