of Marquette, was in L'Anse last Sat
urday and subpenaed Meador Seavoy
to appear in the u. S. Court at Chica-
go Monday in the case of Nathan Fish
er VS.. the U. S. postal authorities, for
using mails for fraudulent purposes.
Two years ago last May Fisher sent
out circulars quoting fancy prices for
fish, higher than the regular commits
sion men. and thousands of pounds of
the finest Lake Superior white fish
were shipped to him. In some cases ne
paid for the first consignment and in
some cases he didn't. The week fol
lowing shipments, circulars were re-
ceived by fishermen from the same
man, under an assumed name, in which
he again quoted prices.
Mr.. Seavoy was one of the unfortu-
nate shippers and with Attorney Bren'
nan went to Chicago at the time anc
made an attempt to collect the ac
count. Failing to collect, they enlist.
ed the support of the Postah depart
ment.
1t is understood that there are TWEEN
ty-one witnesses in Chicago to testify
