A Profitile and Rapidly Groving Interest on The Coast. Increase of tho Fleet ~How the Fish Are Caught--A Fisher's Experience ~The “TLione Fisherman" Exemplified, S, F. Call The cod fishing fleet that will sail from this port to the Okotsk and Bohring seas and to the Choumagin Islands will be considerably larger this coming season than it was last yoar. So farsixteen ves- sels have or are about to sail, while it is thought the total number may reach as high as twenty. The fleot last year num- berea but twelve. Cod fishing on this coast has proved very profitable to those engaged in the business, and_the field is said to be unlimited, as the fish are plen- tiful and show no signs of diminishing in numbers. “In fact,” said a skipper yes- torday, “‘the fishermen claim that there are more fish there now than ever.” Among the vessels known to be in this year's floet aro the following: The schooner Krancis Alice, Captain Hen- derson, which sailed on the 22d instant for the Navigator Islands with a general cargo. From there she will go the Okotsk sea. The schooner Czar, Captain Schmalz, goes to the Chou- magin islands with stores, and will act as a tender for the schooner Ounga and Ounimak, the latter in command of Captain Trouson. She will do some fish- ing herself, and as soon as the three vessels secure a full cargo for the czar will return here The schooner Dashing Wave, Captain Gaffney, will go tho Beh- ring sea, and the three masted schooner Hancock, Captain Chipman, follows her. The latter was formerly a government steamor and has a war record. Her purchasers took enough copper and metal out of her to pay the expenses of changing her into a sailing vessel. She recently has been fitted up as a codfisher and her firat trip as such is yet to be made. The bark, Helen W. Almy, Captain Smith, for many years in the Honolulu trade, makes HER FIRST TRIP As a codfisher, her destination being Behring sea. The barkentine Jane A. Falkinburg, Captin Klinger, is_well known in the Honolulu trade, and goes to the Okotsh for the first time as a cod- fisher. The barkentines Coustitution, Captain Schmalz, San Louis, Captain Johnson, the schooner, Hera, Captain Cobb, and the brig Glenca, Captain Hoonby, are all fitting up for the Okotsh, and the big Tropic Bird, captain Smlph. will go to Behrings. The barkentine Fremont, captain Emerson, is now nbput due from Sydney, and upon her arrival will fit out for the Okotsk, and the schooner Isabel, captain Nickerson, will eicher go there or to Behrings. The schooner William H. Meyer, captain McDonald, is spoken of as a prospective codfisher, and should she go her destina- tion will be the Okotsh. About four more are mentivned in the same relation, but the owners prefer that nothing should be said refering to their identity just at present. Boatman William M. Mason, at North Beach, went north last season in one of the vessels mentioned, and when ap- proached yesterday he said he ‘‘wasa tisher that never intended to go a-fishing again,” slthough he had not had such a very hard time up there, and when he got back here haa several hundred dol- lars in his pocket. Ina general conver- sation relating to the experiences of men in northern watets, the modes and methods of taking fish, the following in. formation was gleaned from Mr, Mason. Each vessel according to size takes up from fifteen to twenty men, all of whom are up and breakfastin time to go to work by four o’clock in the morning. At that hour the majority start out from the vessel to the fishing grounds, each taking adory, which he anchors wherever he sees fit. On either side of the boat is cast a fishing line, baited with halibut cut to the proper size. The man sits with his arms stretched out over the sides of his small craft and in each hand is grasped a line. Feeling a bite one line is dropped and the other hauled in with the fish at- tached to one of the two hooks; it fre- quently happens that both hooks have a prisoner. This work is kept up eight or nine hours every day, and the narrator compares it with sheepherding as regards MONOZONY AND LONLIKESS, The lone fisherman has the privilege of smoking and chewing tobacco, whistling, singing and eating his lunch, and he has the pleasure during » portion of the time of seeing his equally lonesome mates in the distance, and when everything is fa- vorable a glimpse may now and tnen be obtained of the vessel to which he be- longs. Should the fish be plentiful the fishers by handlining frequently catch from three to four hundred and fifty dur- ing the day, Those using troll lines—a a long rope attached to two buoys, from which many lines and hooks are suspend- ed, claim to catch a third more,but hand- lining for some reason is preferred. The fishers aro absent from this port about five months, and during that time some thing like three months are put in in fishing, and each man's catch usuall averages about 10,000 codfish, tor whic he is paid at the rate of $25 per thousand, making his five months’ work worth to him about $260. The fish are caught in from ten to thirty fathoms of water, and about a foot or more from the bottom of the sea, One trouble the fishers have to contend against is the fact of the halibut having a fondness for halibut flesh. See- ing the tempting 1orsel on the hook they swallow it,ana the man in the boat feeling & bite begins to haul in, The halibut per- mits itself to be drawn up ten or twelve feet, when it suddenly, in Mr. Mason's words, “‘begins to kick like a bay steer.” I€ it is & large one the fisher is compelled to pay out his line and then coax the fish toward the surface by easy stages, follow- ing out a pragramme similar to that in “‘spouting,” and seems to have a partic- ular fondness for becoming entangled in the anchor lines of the dories. The fisher without hesitancy cuts the rope and leaves for safor quarters, as his frail craft might at any minute be forced under water or smashed to picces, As dark- ness approachos tho men return to their respective vessels, and the dories are hoisted aboard. A general wash-up fol- lows, and the tired fishers partake of a hearty meal, smoke a pipe of tobacco and then go on deck again to count their fish under tho supervision of a suporior. Two small sized fish are counted as one, and each man before going to bed is given credit for his day's catoh. The next morning, while the men are following out the previous day's programme, a man oalled the ‘‘throater” cuts the throats of the fish brought aboard the night bo- fore. The ‘“header” next twista the heads off and drags the entrails out. The ‘“‘splitter” with a sharp knife splits the fish down tho back, takes the backbone neatly out, and slides the cod down a chute into the hold of the vessel. Here they are piled up in a kenches,” each layer, with heads and tails altornating, being freely sprinkled with salt. Mason says that the men are well treated in the ful, and their quarters comfortable, The only reason for having nothing to relate regarding the amusements of the men was owing to their not indulging in such luxuries, they being so tired upon com- pleting their day’s work that they were ¢lad to get to bed as early as possible For water the vessels had to go to the Choumagin Islands. When a full cargo of fish was secured the vessel headed for this port, where the catch is unloaded, the tish freed from salt by washing and placed upon rocks in the warm sunshine and sundried, or cured. This wasking process the fishers are compelled to assist in, should they not have made a contract to the contrary before shipping. Two of of the drying places are on Kershaw's island and one at Califernia city, and it is estimated that besides the 400 fishors omployed nearly as many more men are supported by this fast growing industry. e —— “I'm All Broke Up!"

The halibut frequently measures ®| four feet in length, and threo in width, and weighs something like one hundred and fifty pounds. For one man to get such a monster in a frail dory is a matter of impossibility, ana it is not safe to bring the fish too close to the beat, so the only thing to do 1 to cut the line and let the halibut go its ways with a hook in its mouth and piece of cord dragging. Some. times the fisher anchors his dory right over a school of halibut, and as each one caught causes a loss of ten or fifteen min- utes’ time it is evident that another an- shorage must be found. The small hali- but are taken into the boat and cut uml bait, but this easy way of capturing bait does not compensate the fishers for the loas of two or three hours' time during the day in the hooking of the large fish, and in consequence !fie men look upon the halibut as an interloper.

Much of the silver currency—fips, lev- ies, and dollars—was of Mexican and Spanish coinage, The country retail trade was much bet- ter, as people could not so essily run to the city by rail. Business letters were more voluminous and formal, and were written in a precise, round hand. There was York currency, 8 shillings to the dollar, and New England currency, b shillings to the dollar. The diet was more subcharged with groase, the winter breakfast usually be- ing made of salted ham and hot cakes. Dinner was simply a hasty lunch at noon, and little importance was attached to the necessity for good digestion or a period of rest after eating.
