CARELESS CAL
CATCHES FISH
AGAINST
Commits MiSdemeanor by
Hooking Trout Without
License.
MAKES 15-POuND HAUL
So Legislature Passes Law
to Provide Him Free
Permit.
RB JHjted Press

~ 1'Lt't' '-''
SIMSBURY, Conn, April IT,
Calvin Coolidge has taken sixteen
trout from Connecticut waters with
out a license, it developed today, but
the state legislature has made it
possible for him to fish free here
after without danger Of running
counter to the law.
The Northampton (Mass) angler
did his trout fishing on the estate
of George P. Mclean, former
United States senator, here Monday.
Mclean told the United Press to-
day that the former President had
no license-a misdemeanor which,
even if committed on private prop
erty, is punishable by fine OF
about 81 and costs.
"Mr. Coolidge had no license, "
Mclean said. but had one and l
didn't think he needed one mas
much as he was fishing in a private
stream"
Catches Fifteen Pounds
The Northampton citizen went
back to his home carrying his six
teen trout which weighed a total Of
fifteen pounds, and apparently
thought no more about the matter.
But at Hartford, the Connecticut
state capital, the legislature passed
an unusual bill Tuesday. The
measure provided that Governor
John H. Trumbull, With the ap-
proval of the state fish and game
board, might issue complimentary
hunting and fishing licenses to non
residents.
No explanation Of the legislation
was given. but under it Trunbull
and the fisheries board can let
Coolidge cast his fiy-or his worms
in the Connecticut streams with
out charge.
But Not Retroactive
The measure is not retroactive to
cover Mondays fishing episode, but
the beard has given no indication
it will take action against the
fisherman from the north.
Mclean was loud in his praise Of
Coolidge's fishing prowess.
Mr.. Coolidge is a good fisher
man." he said. He cast with a
dry fly and 1 didn't think they'd
lash at it. But they did and he
went home with sixteen trout. They
weighed as much as a pound, some
of them.
The catch was rather remarkable
in view Of the bad weather.

TERRIFIC GALE

Tugs and Steamers Sent in
Violent Storm; Damage
Is Heavy.
FLOODS MENACE EAST
Rain and Snow Send Many
Rivers Rising Toward
Danger Point.

BH tHUcd Press
NEW YORK, April ia terrific
storm which lashed the entire east
ern seaboard had left today flood
threats, snow blocked roads and
thousands of dollars damage to
shipping.
Two deaths we're attributed direct
ly to the storm. The body of a
sailor was washed ashore in New
Jersey and a man was killed in Con-
necticut.
Rivers are rising today in Maine
and New Hampshire as result Of
the combined snow and rain storm
which swept across the New Eng
land states yesterday.
Some roads in western MaSsa-
chusetts are blocked and snow ploWS
are in use today in parts of Penn
sylvania. The snow extended as
far south as Maryland and Virginia.
Shipping Is Damaged
Shipping suffered. Five crafts
were sunk in New York harbor as a
gale of 78-mile velocity battered the
shore line. Most of them carrying
valuable cargo. All crews were
rescued.
A 70-mile gale struck Cape Cod
and two craft went on the rocks.
The steamer West Hika was in
danger with q broken rudder, but
was saved. transatlantic steamers
were delayed in arriving, a number
being held at quarantine off New
York harbor. Several coaSt-WiSe
vessels were held in harbor at Bos-
ton.
The fruit crop in south central
Pennsylvania suffered as result OF
the low temperatures and snow and
sleet storms.
Storm Is Abating
Through most of the region the
storm had abated today and moder-
alton had started. The forecast for
the metropolitan area predicted
snow or showers during the day
with clearing tonight which will
give way to warmer temperatures
tomorrow.
The violence of the storm was de-
scribed by commanders Of two
steamers which arrived a day late.
The Siboney of the Ward line was
off Atlantic City, with two anchors
down, during the worst of the storm
while the Panama of the Munson
line paradoxically was in a dead
calm in the very center OF the
storm.
One table was ripped from the
fastenings in the captains cabin on
the Siboney and papers were strewn
about. Two persons were injured
slightly. The waves were striking
the ship broadside and the vessel
was shipping water in the engine
room and lacked only a few degrees
from being in a dangerous tilt.
Ship in Dead Calm
Captain L. T. Steamstrom said the
storm was unusual for these waters,
as he never had seen anything to
equal it except in the Indian ocean
Captain j. H Lum of the Panama
said he frankly was worried. He
was off the Delaware Capes yester-
day and received reports from ev-
cry direction of the terrific wind.
Yet the Panama was in dead
calm, apparently the exact center
of the storm.
He said he was unable to make
any headway The captains state
ment was borne out by the fact
that four motor boats on the for
ward Geek we're as Ship-shape as
when the vessels left Nassau.
The lie de France arrived and
passengers said that the passage
had been rough since leaving Cher
bourg. Several persons were injured,

LOS ANGELES, Oct %. Up
Recent declines IN the lamb mar
kets over the country have appar-
emily been arrested and there is
quite q general opinion throughout
the trade that the bottom has been
reached for the resent, as far as
prices are conccrnc |. Receipts have
been liberal at thc market ccnters
during recent weeks, and to aggra
yatc the situation, there was but
little demand for thin lambs to 60
into country feed lots. The result
was that both fat and thin lambs,
particularly ON the Missouri river
markets, were forced into meat
channels. Late IL September there
appeared verv broad demand fof
anything suitable to go into feed
lots, with the big Colorado lamb
feeders liberal buyers. The result
has been that thin lambs have been
selling at highcr prices than fat
lambs. The trade opinion seems to
be that lamb feeders in northeast
crn Colorado and western Nebraska
will feed greater number OF lambs
this season than a year ago. The
big operators, remembering the
losses suffered i, cattle feeding op-
erations last yea, are more than
ever inclined to feed lambs. 1t is
generally recognized that the big
feeders i'll the Colorado sugar beet
districts will not feed as many cat,
