Newfoundland Ends Poor Sealing Season
St. John’s Newfoundland May 18 Today marked the close of one of the most unsatisfactory sealing seasons Newfoundland has known in many years. Twenty steamers engaged in the fishing reported a total catch of 175128 seals valued at 329104 this is hardly more than half the number taken last year when the steamers reported 304291 seals valued at 493635. The falling off this year is due in a large measure to the abnormal ice conditions. There were no serious accidents to the vessels of the fleet.
