BAIT SITUATION SOLVED:
HERRING SUPPLY ASSURED
The local bait problem, says the
Juneau Empire of recent date, caused
by the new herring regulations which
become effective within a short time,
has been solved by a ruling of the
Department of Commerce to the ef
fect that the 60-barrel per boat lim
it per day will not apply to impound
ing. Herring, according to a tele
gram from Commissioner Henry O’
Malley to Asst. Fisheries Agent E.
M. Ball, may be impounded in any
quantity regardless of the limit dur
ing the close season on herring.
Until the fish are taken from the
pounds the regulations do not apply.
Halibut boats, calling at pounds for
bait, will then be regarded as fish
ing boats and allowed to take up to
60 barrels at any one time but not
more than once each wreek. As none
of the local boats would require in
excess of that amount for one trip
this ruling makes it feasible for them
to secure all the fish they need for
bait.
No Relief For Packers.
The Department, however, so far
has not modified the regulations in
any way to meet the problems con
fronting the packers, such as the
Douglas Fish Co., and which officers
of the latter company said would put
it out of business. The purport of
the regulations, said Mr. O’Malley,
was to curtail the operations of re
duction plants at all times except
during the general open season and
the Department would take no steps
which w'ould endanger that objec
tive.
Text of Telegram.
The bait situation was again put
before the Department last Friday
in a wire by Mayor I. Goldstein who
called attention to the fact that it
would be impossible to impound fish
under the regulations. In answer
to this Commissioner O’Malley cabled
Mr. Ball as follows:
“Answering Mayor Goldstein’s tele
gram, December 26, advise him there
is no limit regarding quantity of
herring that may be stored or im
pounded. Halibut fishing boats may
secure their supply by purchase or
by any other lawful manner and
there is no restriction regarding
quantity herring that may be placed
aboard any halibut fishing vessel.
When herring are removed from
pound each halibut boat will be con

its limit of sixty barrels without

SUPPOSED GERMAN
SPY IN B. C. COURT
VANCOUVER, B. C., Jan. 6_Was
Fred Lobb at one time a German spy
and at another a sergeant in the Roy
al Canadian Mounted Police?
This is the question which officials
of the Canadian National Railways
and O. J. Wheatley would like Lobb
to answer; and Mr. Justice D. A. Mc
Donald today overruled Lobb’s coun
sel's objections and ordered the ques
tion and other interrogatories of a
similar nature answered.
Lobb claims unstated damages from
the Canadian National Railways and
Wheatley, who is in charge of their
investigation department here, for
illegal arrest and imprisonment. The
plaintiff was arrested in response to
a telephone message to Wheatley and
the. message was subsequently discov
ered to have been fictitious. Lobb,
incarcerated in jail overnight, was
then released.
Monetary compensation is sought
by Lobb for the injury to his repu
tation.. On this issue, R. W. Hanning
ton, defense counsel, questioned Lobb
and he refused to answer. Today,
E. C. Mayers and Mr. Hannington ap
plied in supreme court chambers for
an order compelling answers to the
questions.
Mr. Mayers said that the defend
ants contended that Lobb had served
in the Greman army, had resided in
London, returned to Germany and re
ceived instructions in espionage work,
came back to London in 1913, joined
the Royal Northwest Mounted Police,
alleged he was a member of the Lon
don Stock Exchange, said he was a
British subject, and was a sergeant in
the Royal Canadian Mounted Police
during the war. Lobb, if he wishes
to continue with his action, must an
swer these allegations and also the
various explanations he gave of these
matters in Lethbridge and Fernie

PTARMIGAN PLENTIFUL
IN OLD DAWSON CITY
The recent high winds on the hills
surrounding Dawson have driven the
ptarmigan into the Klondike valley
and the flat on which Dawson city
is situated, and the early risers are
replenishing their leader with very
little effort. Rabbits also are plentiful
on Dawson’s streets and the small
boys have set many snares and are
meeting with great success.
