Great Britain Puts Import Ban Homarus Amcricanus. on Halifax, Feb. 28.—Serious effects on the lobster fisheries of the Can- adian maritime provinces are feared Ly those interested in the industry, due to the prohibition of lobster ship- ments to Great Britain. A prominent shipper said today that more than 18,000 families in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick were dependent upon lobster fisheries for their living. He declared that the cutting off of the British market would result in great hardship to these people. “Our annual shipment abroad,” he said, “and last year it was practically all made through Great Britain, is about 110,000 cases, valued here at about $2,250,000. 1If the lobsters cannot be sold in the European mar- kets they cannot be sold anywhere. Only forty or fifty thousands cases 800 allowed this year and $714.05 expended to February 17, street spe- are consumed in Canada and the United States.” o i m tmfm L Ll MR. P.
