Plenty of LObsters
But Prices Stay Up.

Rockland, Me-, Aug. 30.-From the
Maine sea and shore fisheries cons1nis-
sioner it is learned that the lobstermen
along the coast now have on hand more
ments into Portland within the last
week or two have been unusually
heavy The lobster pounds are full.
The lobster trust doesn't want any
more for the price is up and they in
tend to keep it there.
Such n condition has not been known
in midsummer in the Pine Tree State
for a score of years, and affords ample
proof that the lobster industry has been
saved to the State through the efforts
of the Maine and United States fish
department officials.
From Aug. 20 to Oct. ! is the time
when Holsters are particularly scarce,
fewer being caught within that period
than any time of the year except in the
extremely cold weather, because the
shedding time usually begins in Au-
gust. Therefore. nearly 25 per cent. Of
the Holsters are unavailable for market
at this time and during the next four
or FIVE weeks. Another handicap during
August is due to the fact that there
are no heavy winds to stir the waves
and compel the shellfish to journey
from hiding place to hiding place seek
ing shelter. Without the movement Of
the sea the Holsters cling to seques-
tered hooks where the food supply is
abundant, and the fishermen are forced
to move their car stations from one
point TO another in order to find the
favorite locations of their prey. This
takes time and lessons the number
brought in as the result of a days haul.
Not withstanding these August disad-
yantagaS, the catch still maintains COM
paratiyely phenomenal proportions and
the fishermen are Clamoring for q low
price which will induce the public to
take some Of the surplus off their
hands Until the combination of deal
ers accedes to their request the over
supply will continue and only indepen-
dent sales by the fishermen will help
the situation. Except those sold to tho
local hctes, the fishermen are COM
peeled to turn over to the wholesalers
all that they catch. and it is Impossible
for them, under present circumstances,
to reach the big markets. That the fish
erinen arrange for their own middle
men is 4 proposition which meets with
much favor in view of the conditions
this year.
Only a stormy autumn will reduce the
catch during the coming three months
and, according to Commissioner Dona-
hue. if the high winds continue there
will be 4 still larger supply of Holsters
On hand than at present.

ENGINEER REscUEs CHILD.
Climbs on Pilot and Pulls Baby OF
Rails to Flying Locomotive.

Parkersburg, w. Va, Aug. 80
James Brown, an engineer on the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad between
here and Grafton, has been proclaimed
the hero of the day, and will always
be remembered by one family at least,
for his remarkable presence of mind
and his cool nerve.
Brown left here this morning at 10
o'clock for the East. His train was
twenty minutes late and was running
past Kanawha station at forty-five
miles an hour, when the engineer no.
ticed the twenty -months-old tot Of q.
L. Jackson sitting on the rail.
Brown knew he could not stop his
train. He reversed the throttle, how
ever, and then climbed over the run
ming board to the pilot. By the time
the train had come upon the child it's
speed had slackened to twenty miles
an hour. and Brown, holding to the
Swaying engine with one hand, reach
ed down and grabbed the child by the
arm. pulling it on the engine. The
baby was struck on the head and in
tured, but will recover.
The act of Brown was witnessed by
the mother and sister of the tot, who,
on hearing the approach of the train.
Brown was so unncrved by his expert
cnce that he is now under n physi-
clans care at his home in this city.
