SAL MON
OF Humpback Variety to Be
Transferred from Pacific
Coast to Maine.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. e.
One of the most interesting and
promising pieces Of constructive
fishery work now in progress in the
Bureau of Fisheries. Department of
Commerce. is the Introduction of the
humpback salmon Of the Pacific coast
into the littoral waters of Maine.
The native salmon of the New Eng
land coast. has become very scarce,
and there is a noteworthy run only in
the Penobscot river. where the bu-
reau conducts extensive operations
addressed to this species. Owing to
u~nfavorable physical conditions
tdams, pollutions, removal of forests
at headwaters, etc.) in most of the
streams formerly frequented by the
salmon, there is little or no probable
tty that this fish can ever be .reestab-
lished. The humpback salmon has
therefore been selected as a suitable
substitute. 1t spawns near salt wat
er, and will find numerous favorable
streams in which the eggs will hatch
and the young remain until ready for
their short marine life. The average.
weight attained is five pounds, but
examples weighing ten pounds are
sometimes taken in Alaska When
the fish is fresh run from the sea, the
flesh is of a rich red color, of deli
Hcious flavor. and a very satisfactory
substitute for the Atlantic salmon.
The Bureau has begun an annual
transfer of humpback eggs from the
west coast to the Maine hatcheries,
and is now distributing, in the form
Ioe fingerlings. the fish resulting from
eggs brought across the continent last
year. The plants will aggregate
about seven and, a quarter millions.
and the waters stocked, which have
been specially selected for the pdr-
pose. will include the following Maine
rivers: Penobscot, Androscoggin.
Pleasant, Damariscotta, Dennys'
orland, Union, Georges, Medomak.
and st. Croix.
This work will be continued on a
large scale annually until the hump
back has been firmly established, and
a great boon will thus be conferred
on the fishing industry Of Maine. In
1913 the .humpback run in Pudget
Sound was valued at 4 10000 the
fish being used chiefly for canning.
In Maine and other New England
waters the humpback will be in great
est demand as a fresh fish. \

FOREIGN
Mail is to Be Sent Not Later
Than Friday, Says Post
master General.
tsrre,AL 10 Iar 1.lraaAn,

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. O.
At least one means of communication
by those in this country with friends
stranded in. Europe is assured by the
announcement today Of Postmaster
General Burleson that the weeks &C.
emulation Of mail will be sent, not
later than Friday, by the steamship
st. Paul, of the American line.
The cancellation of the sailing OF
the Cunarder Lusitania caused the
first really important delay in the
sending Of the mail. There is still
hopes Of the La Lorraine, Of the
French line, being able to clear this
week. However, in case of her fall
r to leave port, the whole's weeks
mail will go by the st. Paul arriving
in C~herbough, Plymouth OF Southamp-
ton, with only a weeks delay.
There is assured from now on at
least n sailing a week by the Amer
lean line, and in addition it is thought
that there will be available from time
to time vessels flying the Norwegian,
Swedish or Holland flags, whose sail
ings presumably will not be inter-
fered with.

"At 4 o'clock in the morning the
German Tenth army corps attacked

forts from the southeast while their
artillery bombarded the forts at
Flemalle on the opposite bank Of the

GO TO CAD|LL
From E%ncampment Of Mary.
land Militia TO Give Guards
men Some Pointers.
1s,re,AL 70 me 1rLron.s,

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. O.
The members of Company E, Of the
T%wenty-ninth infantry, United States
army, who are now participating in
the annual camp of the militia Of the
District OF Columbia at Virginia
Beach, will go directly from here to
the encampment at Caddill, w. Va.
The regulars have been instrument
al here in teaching young guardsmen
a few lessons as to how guard dodg-
ing is treated in the regular army.
Heretofore 1t has been a comparative
ly easy matter for the young civilian
soldiers to spend a night in the town
or city near the encampment and run
the lines" getting back to his tent.
Strict military discipline has been OBJ
served here under the regime of the
regulars, and it is understood, tn
stricter military discipline Is to be
observed in all the state encampments
this year. Lieutenant Wagner, after
a few o~ffenses, placed his seasoned
troopers as outside pickets, and a few
OF the stragglers we're treated to quite
a surprise in experiencing how real
soldiers handle guard runners, and
also to a few seasonable lessons as to
how any army post must be watched.
Since the state militia has gone
under practically the same formation
as the regular army, there is every
probability that some Of the young
militiamen will be surprised this year
at the state encampment, with regular
army orders, and the discipline that
Is meted to the United States seasoned
veterans Of the regular army.
Official confirmation OF the appoint
ment OF Major William Wallace OF the
Eleventh Infantry, to Charleston, w.
Va, to instruct and superintend the
annual state encampment of the mil
lila was madetyesterday, in the army
orders issued by the wal department.
Adjutant General Bond had been prev
iously informed of the successor to
Major jerks, who has had charge of
the state encampments for the last
two years. The order details Major
Wallace as an inspector Instructor of
the organized militia of the state, to
take effect September 1, and he will
enter on duty on or about August Is.
Major Isaac c. jerks, who has here
tofore supervised the state encamp-
ments has been assigned to the Ninth
infantry.

A clash occurred over the right Of

At the end of two hours of Wrangllng
IN the course of which the committee
once completely reversed its ruling on

the understanding that Sueh evidence,

Judge J. G. NOrthcut told the COM

SULZER ATTEMPTS TO

Albany, n. Y, Feb. 24-LegaI pro-
ceedings have been instituted by VIII
liam Sulzer before justice Alden Ches-
ter of the state supreme court to re-
cover the gOvernorship from which he
was removed last October.
An order was issued by the court
commanding controller Sohmer to ap-
pear and show cause why a writ of
Tnandamus compelling him to pay the
former governor his full salary as the
occupant of that office, should be
questioned. Mr.. Sulzer previously had
made a written demand on Mr.. Sob

When attorney general CarmOdy ne
titled Justice Chester that he would op-
pose the granting of the writ, the
court said he intended to refuse it as
a question of law.
