Wisconsin Fish Yield Is $792,040

How important are Wiscons1n's
commercial fisheries as an eco
nomic factor appears in figures just
compiled by Superintendent James
Nevin of the fish commission in his an
nual report. For the year ending De-
cember 81, 1913, the total catch of
food fishes marketed by commercial
fishermen from the waters of the great
lakes under the control of Wisconsin
was 21.722.061 pounds Of market
value of $4,000.
Under the Wisconsin law all fisher
men plying their trade within Wiscon-
sin boundaries are required to secure
a fishing license and must, at the end
Of each year, make a report to the
state, giving the result of their years
work. During the year 1913 some l.
652 men were employed by the COM
mercial fishermen and the investment
in boats, net and other equipment Is
placed at $696,635.
Following the statement of the num-
Der of pounds of the various kinds Of
fishes taken by the commercial fish
ermen and their value as reported to
the department.:

This agitation, it has been pointed
out by Berchtold, was the direct cause
of the tragedy at Sarajevo, when the
archduke and his morganatic wife fell
by bullets fired by a Servian. The
Austrian minister of foreign affairs
demonstrated in the judicial inquiry
that followed the crime, that Servian
officials, civil and military, had been
involved in the events that led to the
assassination.
Deemed Time for Action.
The moment for action had come.
Berchtold surveyed the international
horizon.
He observed that Russia was in

That France was In a turmoil Of pc.

That Great Britain was facing an

demanding an apology for Servia's
part in the tragedy of Sarajevo and a
suppression of the anti-Austrian agi'
tation in Belgrade, followed promptly
in the midst of the preoccupation OF
the triple entente.
Berchtold realizes more clearly than
anybody else that he has challenged
the entire Slav world, with the ex.
ception of Bulgaria; that his quarrel
is not with Servia, but with Russia,
attacks upon Austria.
NikoIa Pashitch, ServIan Premier.
Nikola Pashitch, premier and min.
lister Of foreign affairs of Servia, has
twice before been the dominant figure

country. His policy always has been

CIamor Against Austria.
But the chief grievance of the Ser

repeatedly demonstrated it's prefer
ence for Austrian rule, the campaign
for liberating the Servian brothers
from the Austrian yoke has been kept
up with frequent outbursts of anti
Austrian clamor in Belgrade. To this
clamor Russia, always jealous of Aus
tria, has lent her secret and some
times her open support
The annexation of Bosnia-Herz
govina by Austria in 1909 produced a
wild demand in Servia for immediate
war to Hberate the Bosnian brothers
from Austrian rule. At that time,
however, Russia was not ready for &C.
ton against Austria, so the clamor
spent itself in torrid speeches and
fervid press declarations.
Occupied Adriatic Ports.
Pashitch was premier of Servia in
1912, at the outbreak of the Balkan
war. He saw an opportunity to block
Austria's long-sought road to the
Aegean sea. The first objective points
Of the Servian armies in the first war
were the ports of the Adriatic, in
what is now Albania. These, with the
help Of Montenegro, Servia occupied
in the first stages of the struggle.
At this stage, however, Pashitch's
calculations were upset by Austria.
Acting in conjunction with Italy,
which also had pretensions to the
country Inhabited by the aboriginal
stock of the Balkan peninsula, the
Austrian government succeeded in in.
ducing Europe to order Servia, Greece
and Montenegro out of the Adriatic
territory occupied by them, and set
aside this region as an independent
state, to be called Albania.
ServIans Nursed Their Wrath.
The negotiations which Pashitch
conducted in this phase of the Balkan
struggle were protracted and delicate,
but eventually the Austro-Italian de-
mand was carried out, and the Ser
VANS nursed their wrath.
For the success of his defiant atti-
tude toward Austria, Pashitch depend
ed almost entirely upon Russia. 1t
was realized clearly by General Put
mix, the Servian chief of staff, that re-
sistance to Austria upon the field of
battle would be unthinkable, so far
as an ultimate triumph for Servian
arms is concerned.
In the course Of the past score of
years Servia has been conducting an
active agitation among the Slavic
population Of southern Austria, and
Pashitch undoubtedly counts upon in
ternal disorders in the rear Of an adj
vancing Austrian army to embarrass
the enemy in campaign into Servia.
OF the success of this plan there is
grave doubt, however, as the Catholic
and Moslem Serbs of Austria have
no laundering for Servian rule.

Auto Races for state Fair.

Terrible Teddy" Tetzlaff, Hughes,
Carlson, De Alene, Kennedy and
Goetz, all Of whom have been "burn-
ing up" courses in the West and North
west during July, will be among the
auto drivers who will compete in the
big auto races with which the state
fair will be opened on September IA.
Secretary j. c. Mckenzie received
word from E. A. Moross of Indianapo-
lis, Ind, who will manage the fair auto
races, that the six men named above
will take part in the fair races. MOross
has not announced the program Of
events, but there will be at least six
races, and in all probability there will
be Is and 50-mile event, in the card.
Tetzlaff and Hughes have been seen
In action in Milwaukee, both taking
part in the big auto event of two years
ago over the Gran Prix course. Tetz-
laff is driving the famous 300 horse
power Bitten BentZ. In 1911 Tetzlah
was the acknowledged speed cham
pion of the United States. He won all
the classic events Of that year and
took second place in the Indianapolis
speedway race Since then he has
lowered his own worlds record by es-
tablishing a new mark of 1878 miles
per hour, which has never been
equaled on this or the other side Of the
Atlantic. Tetzlaff Is the dare devil OF
racing men. If his car can "stand the
gait" he will win almost any race he
enters, for whenever he fails to win it
is because of mechanical trouble.
Hughes on July 4, at Tacoma, Wash,
captured the Golden Potlach trophy in
a 200-mile race from Cooper and Ar
thur Klein. Hughes had six and one
half second to spare over Klein. Coop
er led in this race until the ninety
eighth lap, when tire trouble threw
him back to third place, just as the
first money, $1,000, was in his grasp.
The time of Hughes for this race
was 2:41:32 2-5, at the rate of 74.2S
miles per hour. Hughes drove Max
well and passed Klein in the last lap.
De Alene also started in this event,
but his car turned turtle early in the
race, neither De Alene nor his mechan-
ician being severely injured.
Hughie Hughes is a popular driver
with Milwaukee followers Of auto rae
ing, and, next to Tetzlaff, is the big
card in the string Of speed demons
coming to the fair.
Kennedy has been doing we'll in the
West and will give good account of
himself on the state fair track. He
drives Chalmers six, and his car is
the fastest of all the Chalmers cars
that have been turned out to date.
De Alene finished second in the re-
cent Santa Monica Grand Prix. He
drives a Marmon, and his victory in
this event was the first for an Ameri.
can car in that race for ten years.

These figures are taken from the re-
ports sent in by 5SS licensed fishermen.
They show an increase of 4,114,225
pounds and $139, 148.S3 in value above
the 1912 catch. The Wisconsin fish
commission Is unable to secure white
fish eggs in such quantities that the
whitefish may be propagated in the

is desired. Superintendent Nevin= has
applied all his efforts with what spawn
that can be secured each year, to stock

Increase in the catch. reports for the
past ten years show that the whitefish
in these waters are holding their own.
Lake trout and bluef1n, which the Wis
consin hatcheries propagate on an i'm
mense scale, show great results. The
catch of these species has been on the
increase for years. The 1918 catch
shows an increase Of over 100000
pounds in lake trout and over 465, 900
pounds in bluefin over the catch OF
1912.
