OTTAWA LETTER The Lobster Fishery Bill,

The Kxeamin ry.)

Tupper moved the House into committee on his Lobster Act. tie spoke at length and explained the measures propused in the bill regarding the lobster fishery. Mr. Tupper holda in great esteem @ report male by Mc. Neilson, of Newfoundland, a fishery expert, and his opinions have influenced the minister very materially in drawing up thia bill. Mr. Neilson attaches great importance to the siz limit, and he admits that it is impos- sible to carry out the provisions of the law which vequires’ lebsters under nine inches in length to be restored to the water. Nevertheless, the prisiciple is sovod, but the correet size’ must -be attained by rega- lating the width between the siata in the traps, and: this is Mr. Neilson’s plan, whieh hasbeen sucdcessfully tried in New- foundland. At first it was proposed that the alates should be J} inches apart, but afcer trying au experiment, Mr. Tupper has décided that that space was too large, and that 1+ inches was wide enough to atop an Sinch lobster, As a matter of fact, the law preventing lobsters. under nine inches from beitig taketh was “more honored in the breach than in the observance—io one factory three-Baundred lobsters were found -only four “itighes long. And he was alao led to depart from the Y inch regula- ties by a consideration of the evidence as to.when a lobster matures. Commander Wakebam, an cfticer of vast experience, had stated that a lobster_ under 84 inches was seldom found capable of reproducing; but, in.s receut conversation the minister had with him, Dr. Wakeh«m restricted that opinion largely t. the medium. waters with which be was most familiar, and ad- mitted that’ in Norttiuiiber'aiid Srrait the size would be smiller. Mr. Wlm-+t, asa

cluded.. that a - lobster .@apable of reproducing, would average 8} inches long, though smaller lubaters -were “found with eggs. Mr. Neilson’s experiments showed that they are seldom found under 8 inches capable of reproducing, and in Newfoundiand oftener over 8 inches than under. Mr. Ogden had noticed exuded eggs on lobsters under 8 inches, and on some even under 7 inches. Under the proposed regulations, Mr. Tupper felt sat- istied there would: not be half so many small lobaters as there ara now under the existing regulations. He admitted that it was almost impossible for an honest packer to comply with the present law. In one section of the Island it hat been represent

ed to him that even a 1} inch width,— making the siz limit 8 inches, would em

barrase the business so aso make it un- profitab'e, While he would not make any stipulation he wou'd say to the people of this district, if they won'd give up 10 days at the end of the present open season, he would recommend the passing of ‘an Order in Council reducing the space to. 1} inch, which, from Ogdeu's report, would stop lobetersof 7} inches. Mr.* Tapper de fended the license system as absolu‘ely necessary in the interests of the honest packer, and of thosa who/wish to. put up a good article aa well! as in the interests of a uniform administration.cf the law. The fee was nominal and it was proposed to re- turn good valae for it. In the opinion of many packers, the certificate of the officer or the stencilling would would be of con

siderable commercial value; whether it would or not he knew that packers com- pisined that when they obeyed the law and c'osed their factories, all. over the coast little canneries sprung up to their detri- ment and the injury of the fisheries. With a license system, the police could more effectually exercise control and enforce the regulations.

first presented to the House. It was, ne- ceesary, however, in the lobster industry to make a distinction between the fishery in the Gulf of St. Lawrence and that on the Atlantic and Newfoundland coasts. He referred tu the fact that in the New England States lobsters were taken nearly all the year round, while in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, though we had from Ist January to 15th July, yet dwing to the gulf being frozen over, the active fishing season’ was from lich or 20th of Mayo 15th July, or sbout 45 daya in the year, after deducting stormy days, Sundays and holilays. It was true, to a certain extent, that lobaters are scarcer now than when the factories were first started, but the ac- tual value of thé fish taken last year was nearly equal to that of the best season we ever had. packed, valued at $4 4 case; deducting $1 for case and cans, the net value of the fish was $390,000; lastseason 100,600 cases were packed—although not so many lobsters were taken, They were worth $7 50 case, or $750,000—deducting for cases and cans, we had $600,000, the actual value of che. lobsters. “Commander Gordon and the inspectors admitted that the regu- lations under the Order in Couneil,were impracticable. Mr. MeLean contended that the actual close season had never been fairly tested on account of the extensions of time which had been granted from one season to another. He would like tu see the close season strictly adhered to and extended, if necessary, for the further pro- tection of the industry. (Mr. McLean stated. that he and Mr, A. C. Macdonald had waited upon Mc. Tupper regarding the traps on the Island coast. tu Mr, Me- Lean’s opidion what suited ‘the Island would suit all parts of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, excepting a small portion of Northumberland Strait. They had sug- gested to Mr. Tupper that from Cape Traverse south to Cape Bear and around East Point to the North Cape, the trapa be allowed to be 1} inches between the slats, and in consideration of his extending that. concession, they would be willing to shorten the season to 5th July. But as in Egmont Bay and certain parts of the weat- éra coast of the Island, the lobsters do not strike in as early on the rest of the coast, they had suggested that from Cape Traverse to North Cape the time be made from Ist May to 165th Jaly, Mr, McLean considcred it unfair to compare the Straits of North- umberland and the Gulf of St. Lawrence with the Newfcundland. coast or the At- lantic coast, or even the coasts of Great ‘Britain or of Norway and Sweden.

during the time they were jiahing. In sup+ port of his opinion that tha Island and the Gulf of St. Lawrence are d fferently situat- ed so far as fishing and th» means of ex- hausting the fisheries are concerned, Mr. McLean quoted extensively front a report on the fisheries of Great Britain. He had ve faith in Mr. Neilson’s report, for while his remarks might be correct as to New- foundland, they did net necessarily spply to the Gulf, If there had been in New- foundland, in the past twenty years, as many traps set as on the Island, lobster dshing would have ceased there altogether. Che lobster industry was _of immense im- portauce to the Island, as mueh so ag one involving $30,000,000 weuld be to the Dominion. Any measure, therefore, that would tend to make it unprotitable would be a serious injustice, especially if the re- gulations proposed were not really in the snterest of the industry. When it was re- ‘ported that Mr. Neilson had -asoertained that 4 10-inch lobster could get through

and his own experience did-not support it. He had made an experiment and found that a9} inch lobster could be pushed through slats 1} inches wide, and he claim- ed that a live lobster will gu through a smaller space than you can push a dead one through... Mr, Ozden’s testa bore out his statement. If the Minister would establish forthe Island the width of 1} inches, taking the section he spoke of, believed .the- fishermen would meet him half-way ; and if the Minister would make the regulation now so a: to meet the ap- probation of the fishermen and packers, it

rigidly adhere to the close season. If, howéver, the bars were made 1} inches wide, so as to allow 8-inch lobsters to escape, the inaustry could not be profitably eartied on during our short season, es- pecially in view of the fact that the reporte of the Gulf and Island facturies show that 56 per cent. of the lobsters taken were 9 inches and under. 9», if we took 30 per cent. of the receipts of a factory, which would be the case if 8 inch lvbstera were allowed to’ escape, the factory being in operation about 45 days in a year, the busi- ness would be unpri fitable to b t) ‘pack: rs and fishermen. Owing to the absence of a market for fresh lobsters, it was im- possible te exhaust the supply in the Gulf. No factory could be run unless 4,000 lob- sters were landed daily, and when tha sup- ply fell below that number, the factory must be closed. The license requirement was unsatisfactory, for lobster fishing should be as free as any other fishing. But the license fee was ‘mall, and if the concessions -he had recommended were made, the packers and fishermen would not strongly object." As to the label— what the minister hoped to accomplish by having a label’ was to detect those who pack out of season and.no man would be furnished with labels who packed after the l6th of July. It might serve that end, but he believed it would work injury in another way. At present every packer has his brand pretty well established in the market and when these labels are put on cases in future, dealers on the other side will look upon it that these lobsters have been packed under Government inspection, and they would all be put in the same category and be judged alike. Other observations he reserved until the House was in -Com- mittee.

Mr. Davies, who followed, quoted stat- istics to shew that the fishery was nut being cepleted in the Maritime Provinces and he thought it better to: interfere with the industry as little. as possible. Leave it alone and. it would regulate itself, No- where was there such a consensus: of opinion in favor of the close season as on the Island, and the elastic close season which enabled the Minister to extend it a week or 20 days had been the curse of the fisheries. Mr,,Neilaon’s opinions were en- titled to great weight, but neither he nor anybody else had yet been able to master ths subject, and his conclusions should not be embodied inlaw. We were-as yet only in the experimental stage, and we should

knowledge. Mr. Davies quoted Buckland and Spencer Walpole to prove that there was no evidence that the sea coast fisheries were being depleted. These gentlemen showed that, while it is easy to fish cut smal] bays and harbors in two or three seasons, the shoals of lobsters come from deep water, and it was not probable -that they could be exhausted. They pointed out the causes which in some parts of England had led to a decrease of the fisheries, none of which causes existed in Canads. Their report concluded by recommending the adopticn of the 8 inch gauge, and that gauge was evacted by Parlia- ment. The fisheries were left entirely free, because the evidence shewed that the fisheries along the deep-sea coasts were not depleted, and that the powers of man could not exhaust them. They agreed with the conclusions of the Norway commission that unless we can — that these fisheries are in danger of ing destroyed, we are not justifird in hampering those engaged in them with w»- necessary regulations. *Mr, Welsh agreed with Messrs. McLean and vies. Mr. Perry contended that 1887 was the les* year that. showed a depletion of the lobster catch on the Island; and that since then the catch had increased owing to the enforcement of the regulations. He strongly objected to the license system, which might be worked

‘the bill ficdt préposed by the Divister, but knowing thathis sole object was he preser- vation of this valuable industry, thy had laid their views before him in a letter dated March 18th; 1892, as follows;

Finally it was agreed to make the width 1} inch, on the understanding that any section

would have their ing by 10 deys. He was oppown ie inciple of license, He con sidered whole difficulty in connec’ i »n with the depletion of the fisheries would be reyateps taken te have incubators, by which; the eggs of the berried lobsters would * be~ hed. Mr, Neilson’s report showed that he had met with extraordiua:y success ig ithe tion of codfish and lobsters; partioslacly the latter. Were the Minister to turn his attention to this branch | of the fisueries, packers would not object to a } much heavier fee than %, besides assisting jthe department to save what now went to destruction. The fce_of two centa a case would have a good effect, as it would show the buyer that the lobsters had been caught in per season, and when they were best fitted or tood, and the fee would be more than com- pensated for S the standard of quality intro- duced for our rs. Mr. Macdonald con- tended that theishort fishing season was all the protection necessary for the fishery. Our season was shorter than that of any other couutry. On the whole he believed the pro- | posed regulations would, with a little amend- ment in committee, mest with the approval of ackers and fishermen, and would tend to nild up and preserve this important industry.

Mr. Yeo, while agreeing with his colleagues from the Island on the question, would oppose the bill, as imposing unnecessary restrictions

jon ap industry which should be eliowed tu

regulate itself. He repudiated the idea that the lobsters on the Island coast were being depeted. He was particularly severe on the license and stamp requirements.

In committee, Mr Davies objected strongly to the license clause, which might place the packers at the mercy of “‘little, petty jicks. in-office.” He,bad ug confidence in the local officials. of the Fithery rtment. Were the license to dome t from the depwt- ment, he was satistied every justice would be done; but these little! jacks-in-office harrassed ant worried éVery Liberal engaged in the business go as to shew their authority. He declared he spoke from his own knowledge.

Mr. A. C. aspersions which Mr. Davies bad cast upon the Island fishery overseers. Island packers had been fined, bntas many Conservatives had been fined as Liberals, and when fishery officere had to do with distributing tie bounty, there were as many Conservatives complained as Liberals, ~

Mr. Perry—It is not so.

Considerable further discussion took place in committee before progress was reported. Iam sorry that I cannot give a fuller report of the speeches as the question is one of great importance to the Island, but your space would not allow of it. It ia probable the bill wil yet be so amended in committee as to make it ore palatable to the Island.

Ua Friday Mr. Davies brought up the constitutional matter of Lientenant-Governor

Carvell reeerving the bill regarding the Legislature of P.E ob, aud wanted to know whether the Dominion GU.vernment had given any iastruétidns to the L’entenant- Governor in the matter. To which Sir John Thompson replied, No. We are all in the dark so far upon the latest episode ia Island poli ice, but P anticipate there will be a lively brash in the Hou-e ere manv days.

The House then went into Committee of Supply, aud after passing a large number of items, adjourned at an.early hour;
