seabass Fishing Is Good Now.

During the past week the bass fishing at
the New England banks and at the Klondike
has yielded good catches. The fish are large
out on the New England grounds and catches
have run from ten TO thirty to the man on
the whitby.
There are a great many Inquiries each day
about the porgies Passengers ask where are
they. why are they scarce and why are
there not more bass?
These questions can be answered In very
few words. First. the weather is the great
drawback, II we had had favorable mild
spring weather and an early hot summer the
The lower Jersey grounds off Cape May. tho
Five Fathom Banks are literally alive with
porgies and bass Mt tho present time. The
porEies are 40 numerous that the bait fisher
men cannot get their hooks TO the bottom to
catch bass before the porgies nall the bait.
The market fishermen have used purse
nets 81, the porgies and literally slaughtered
them and glutted the market with these fish.
They have turned thousands OF them adrift
from their nets to keep the prices up In the

porglea would now be on our upper Jersey

Notwithstanding the absence OF his

Irish American Athletes
May Yet Race in Ireland

Conditions In Ireland at the present

the Irish race games scheduled to take
place at Dublin next month. according
~ cablegrams read at a meeting OF the
United States executive committee of
the Aonach Tailtean. held at the club
house of the New>York A. c. last night.
The reports received in this country On
regard to Ireland's internal troubles
have been greatly exaggerated. the
cablegrams also stated.
Because OF these statements the
United States committeeman have de-
cided to put the matter of sending a
team Of Irish Americans to the games
up to the members Of the finance COM
nittee. If they will promise to under
write the expenses Of the team the
