THE NEGRO TROOPS
War Department Has Issued I State
nent Covering tho Whole
Situation
MIxUP OF ORDERS

Washington. Nov 21.-The war
department issued the following
statement to-day concerning the
negro troops ordered dismissed at
Fort Reno:
In the matter OF the order dis
charging the enlisted men OF three
companies OF the Twenty-fifth infan-
try Issued by the president, applica-
ton was presented to the secretary
OF war by number of persons Of
standing asking for a re-heartng by
the president of the ground on which
the action was taken. The secretary
telegraphed the president Of the ap-
piication and delayed the proceed
ings of the discharge until the presi-
dent could indicate his wishes. The
secretary was meantime called out
OF town. No answer was received
from the, president. The secretary
on his return did not feel justified In
further delaying the execution Of the
order OF discharge. and especially in
view of the fact that the secretary
then learned that the president had
fully and exhaustively considered the
argument against the order of the
persons who now applied for a re-
hearing. Accordingly the secretary
directed yesterday Tuesday, that
the proceedings for discharge be con-
tinued without delay"

THE fISHERMAN'S PLAGUE
InshoTe Fisheries ln the Bay Of Sun
dy Have Been Ruined By
the Sharks
GROUND FISH DRIVEN OUT

Digby, N. S., Nov 21.-Dog fish,
the fisherman's plague, have practi-
cally ruined inshore fisheries in the
Bay of Fundy. Since the first of
September these small sharks have
driven out or destroyed nearly all the
ground fish, and the only catches
made by the bay fishermen have been
by a few who have been able to go
from ten to fifteen miles offshore. For
the past three weeks, however, even
this method has been impossible on
account of heavy weather.
Within the past few years the dog
fish has become a serious menace to
American and Canadian deep sea
fisheries. Travelling in large schools
these pests kill or drive away cod,
haddock and other marketable fish
and destroy the ffshermen's nets.
Both the American and British gov
ernments have had their experts
working on some plan for the exter-
mination Of the nuisance, but SO far
no real solution to the problem has
been found. In the provinces some
months ago an effort was made to
advocate the dog fish as a food, say
ing that the prejudice against 1t
largely arose from it's name, and that
in reality Its flesh was finer and OF
better flavor when properly cooked
than that Of many of the more pop
ular kinds Of fish.
