Washington, Jan. 1.Preservation land development of the fisheries of the great lakes are the purposes of an agreement which will be signed in the new year by Secretary Root and Min ister Durand. This agreement will provide for the appointment of a com mission to draft uniform laws and regu lations for the protection of fisheries and for the culture of speeies which canl thrive in inlanbd seas. Laws ani regulationsthe are to enforced by the federal authorities and Canadian authorities, thus taking control of this jurisdiction of the states. The laws and regulations are to remain in force five years, after which time they may be revised. Few people will appreciate the great importance of this agreement between the two countries. The amount of fish taken from the lakes has steadily de clined. There has been almost com plete disappearance of the maskalonge a reduction in the catch of the tooth some whitefish, with which the waters were alive a few years ago an increas ing rarity of the wall eyed pike, and a general falling off of the catches in the best fishing grounds. Decrease in Like Superior. This decrease is best shown perhaps, by the experience of the fishermen who operate in Lake RiiDerior, which has alwavs been noted for iaje quantities of wiulchsh an tioul tilt en its wateis. The tat'h of tiies~ spe eies is becoming smaller VUMI succeed ing year. For instance, tae '.itch whitefish decreased in fp-" \fiis over 2,000 00') pounds. Th kmes Hie amount of fish placed upon the market directly aftects all the people of th country, who have to pay higher prices for lake products 01 patronize the beef trust more extensively. The value of the great lakes fisheries has been esti mated by the bureau of fisheries and furnished to Secretary Root for his information. The amount of ""apital in vested is a little more than ^'von mil lions. The pioducts of the fishori^s in one year aggregated 113.000,000 pounds. valued at $2,614,349. Lake Erie, with its shoaler waters, produced the most, reporting a catch of 58,000,000 pounds, valued at $1 150,895. Lake Michigan was second with 31,499.000 pounds, val ued at $S76.000. Lake Huion was third with 12,000,000 pounds, alued at $308,000. The wholesale fisheiv trade on Lake Michigan is most extensive at Chicago and Green Bay, Wis. Consolidation the Rule. The tendency toward consolidation which exists in the fresh fish trade of nearly everv section ot the great lakes early had its effect on Chicago and Green Bav, a certain number of firms in each combining under one manage ment, which now handles the greater portion of fresh fish. Chicago is the most important distributing center for the great lakes region, the total invest ment approximating $2,000,000 and the total value of products being nearlv $5,000,000. Canada^ inteiest the preservation of the great lakes' fisher ies is as great as that of the United States. In order to execute the agree ment with the British government, tho president will have to ask congress to enact a law conferiing upon the federal government authority to regulate lake fisheries. There are eight states inter ested in the industries. States on moie than one lake are Michigan, which bor ders on four lakes, and New York and Wisconsin, each on two. The other states are Illinois, Ohio, Indiana, Min nesota and Pennsylvania. "GOD REIGNS" TO BE MOTTO OF DOWIEITES Chicago, Jan. 1."God reigns" will be Zion City's motto for 1906.

Every Man for Himself. The Associated Press learns that af ter the fall of the Prokharoff cotton mill and other fatcories, a council was hastily held, at which it was decided that the revolution had failed and an order was given to every man to save himself as Dest he could. A. hundred agreed to hold together so as to keep up a show of fight under cover of which others could escape. After the final surrender the inhab itants swarmed into the streets of tho district and in a remarkably short time cleared away the remains of the barri cades and other obstructions, with which for a week the revolutionaries had blockaded the district. Considering the intensity of Satur day's bombardment, when "as many as five shots a minute were fired, besides the steady volleying of the infantry, the losses are surprisinglv small, not more than forty of the soldiers or in habitants being killed and only about two hundred being wounded in the dis trict. The artillery was concentrated mainly against the factories fringing the district, but the revolutionaries usually decamped at the first shot, tak ing refuge in the cellars or neighbor ing houses. The shrapnel and rifle bullets did not taker who had stuck to his post thru out the fighting that there was only one pei son Killed and that a dozen were wounded. Girls Among Fighters.

A great many of the workmen, however, are in an angry mood. They say that they have been deceived by the revolutionaries and that their families are starving.

LIBTO HURT M'GLELLAN Tammany Threatens Revenge on Mayor of New York Thru Reign of Vice.- New York, Jan. 1.General Bing ham, the new police commissioner, will have all he can do to keep the city clean of poolrooms and gambling houses, for, according to many Tammanyites, word has been sent out to go as far as you like" in opening resorts, for the purpose of doing all that is possible to make the administration of Mayor McClellan a failure, Tammany, according to these people, does not intend to be "good'' any longer. They say they have been "good" during the past two years, for Boss Charley Murphy's sake, and have had some care not to blemish McClel lan's administration, but now that Mc Clellan has refused to recognize the Tammany leaders for commissioner ships, they intend to let their followers go ahead and do as they please. During the next two weeks, if the threats are carried out, more than five hundred gambling houses and poolrooms will be established here. They do not intend to go to the police for "pro tection," either. They will defy the authorities and take their chances of being raided. Should policemen be de tailed in front of the places, they will apply to the courts for injunctions. PLEDGES BY McCLELLAN Mayor Says This Is "Probably His Last Public Office."

LUMBERMEN SPOIL NAMES IN MAINE Twisted About and Clipped by Syllables to Suit Tastes of Unsentimental. abo ut to suit the convenience of a non sentimental and an intensely practical people. The8 United States postoffice depart ment has succeeded in clipping the last three letters from such names as Wald boro, which now reads Waldboro, but it can do little with Indian names. For instance, it is difficult to make any thing out of Mattawamkeag or Passa dumkeag, and Passamaquoddy is still official, altho the Maine people call it Quoddy for short. A stream in the Katahdin region has been called Wissataquoik, Wassataquoik & and Wassatacook, and today Ui lumber men call it Satacook. Molunkus, Eipo genus and Meatus are simple enough to be left alone, but there is a big job awaiting the man who tries to simplify Pockwockamus, Sourdnahunk, Passa magmock, Katepsconegon (sometimes called Debsconeag), Caucomgemock or Chemquasabamticook. Aboliackmagasset, Abol.iackarmegas sae or Abeliackamegas is generally clipped by the loggers and hunters to Abol, and, in fact, is so called by nearly everybody on the plea that life is too short to wander thru all the syllables have pledged that rightly belong to the riame of the til after the stream. stream Almost any one of the Indian names is a terror to the postal clerks, but there is one that they particularly abhor, because of the many ways in which the people spell it. This is Wytopitlock seemingly simple enough, but in every day affairs a name strangely twisted and tortured Pwytopetlock, Anytopeloek, Flytopet lock, Wytopills, Wyte Pedlock, White Oak Padlock, Wytoporetock, Witipid- ,.lc lock, Westapitlock.

Pretty good idea don't you think so? Now for an explanation. With other forms of stamps you are obliged to exchange your book of 1,000 stamps for a cheap premium of unknown value, and often you are required to pay nearly as much as your premium is worth in delivery charges before you get it home.
