WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-That the con-
clusion of a convention between the United
States and Great Britain by which the reg
ulations of the fisheries OF the contiguous
waters of this country and Canada will be
assumed by the two governments and dis
putes submitted for arbitration marks a dis
tinct epoch in the history of American
fisheries was the declaration of the Amer
lean Fisheries society in a resolution
adopted here today at its thirty-seventh
annual meeting.
In another resolution the convention ex-
pressed it's great satisfaction at the attitude
of President Roosevelt toward fish preser-
walton as exemplified in the appointment of
the national conservation commission and
pledged it's support to any measures for
carrying out the presidents views. 1t was
decided to hold the next meeting at the
Mammoth Hot Springs, Yellowstone Park,
July II, 1909.
Officers elected were: President, Tarle-

STAY IN WESTERN RATE CASE
Commission Grants Delay in EnfOr-
cling New Tariff Until October 20
at Request of Railroads.

CHICAGO, Sept 22.-The railroads OF
fected by the Missouri river rate case de-
cision requiring them to make effective
the big rate reductions ordered by the In
t~erstate Commerce commission received
word from Washington today that they
had been granted a stay of thirty days in
the enforcement of the order. The rate
reductions were to have become effective
next Friday.
Under the stay the date is advanced un-
III October %. When the Interstate COM
merce commission assemblies in Washing
ton, probably on October o, the railroads
hope it will then take up the question OF
a rehearing of the decision, it is said. The
petition for a rehearing sets forth that in
somuch as a new principle in rate making
has been introduced. a condition of chaos
would be caused which would be disas-
trous TO the railroads.
1t Is understood that If a rehearing is
| granted some of the commercial organiza-
lions of Chicago and ST. Louis will prob
ably side with the railroads in opposing
the reductions. 1t is said under the new
rate jobbers in these cities would be prac-
tically unable to compete with Kansas
City jobbers in the territory west of the
Missouri river, The stay order was issued
upon the recommendation of COMMISSIONS
Z. e.. Clark, who wrote the decision.
