Mone rOoN, June 4.

\ ‘hrilling scene was witnessed in the

police court this afternoon. It has created | ' great sensation, and isthe talk of tie

wn to-night. <A Scott Act case was} brought @p against Mrs. Wm. Wallace } before Sitting Magistrate R. Barry Smith. |

Mr. Geo. Thomas was counsel for defen- | ;

lant, while Mr, David Grant prosecuted.

Mrs. Wallace was arrested and taken to! : * Pd he court room to give evidence in’! her own behalf. She carried with her a

stout whalebone whip, but the spectators took little notice of this as they supposed

ie had left her team outside, and brought the whip in to prevent its being stolen. On being sworn she refused to answer whether she had sold liquor or not within 3 months. The magistrate told her she mustanswer and it Grant’s reques the Magistrate ordered her to be committed to jail for seven days

or contempt of court. Then Mrs. Wal- lace rose in her wrath and struck Grant several times with the whip. The

latter caught hold of the whip, and endea- vored to wrest it from her, and defendant, who isa stout, able woman, grabbed him by the hair and banged his head several times

on the magistrate’s desk. The Marshal was |

. ' — : | erdered to take charge of her, which he} did and took away the whip. She then told

the magistrate she would be quiet and said to Grant: ** lt will horse-whip you the first time I meet you on the street, and | can do it too.” She then answered the questions, saying she had no recollection of selling within the past three months. The was adjourned and Grant asked for a warrant, and it is said will prosecute Mrs. Wallace for assault.

This evening a number of Mrs. Wailace’s presented her with a valuable

FISHERY TROUBLES AGAIN.

They Must Have Bait.

Hairrax, June 4.

Consul General Phelan has just received a cablegram from the United States Consul at St. John’s Nfld. stating that Capt. Dig- gins and crew of the Boothbay, U. 8. bank- ers Ambrose Knight, have been arrested here on a charge of getting bait im St Pierre, Mig. Thecrew were released on giving bonds. Consul General Phelan is at a lossto under- stand action of the Newfoundland Government. The probable explanation is this : under the modus vivendi, the license of American fisherman are entitled to all the privileges of the Newfoundland fisheries, including the purchase of bait, but it is ex- pressly stipulated that this bait shall not be resold or trafticed in. For months past the French fishermen at St. Pierre, who were cut off from admission to their old basking ground in Fortune Bay have been receiving supplies of smug- gled bait from American and Canadian fish- ermen. These enterprising speculators have gone to Newfoundland waters, have vbtained supplies of bait and then cleared for Sydney or some other Canadian port,

this

touched*® there and then run_ back to St. Pierre, where they disposed of their bait at bonanza prices. The Ambrose Knight is thought to have

engaged in this enterprise, and upon her return to St. John’s for shelter or fresh supply her captain and crew were arrested.

This month marks a crisis in the admin- istration of the Newfoundland Bait Bill against the French, and the colonial cruisers have received instructions to use extreme vigilance. If they can effectually prevent St. Pierre fishermen from getting supplies of caplin, a disastrous blow will be struck at the French industry, already greatly harassed and crippled by the oper- ations of the law this season.

Fatal Fire. RockpaLe, Tex., June 4. Mundine Hotel, a three storey brick
