I am also thoroughly versed with all

matters of finance in England and ou the continent. I shall deem it a favor if you are interested in any of the above men- tioned matters. if so, I shall be pleased to call and convey any particulars you may desire.

I make no charge in any way, for con-

sultation, my final remuneration to be ile- termined by the demand made upon my freances.

Very truly yours.

Nonrr-r Svnrmv, Nbv. 25.--Advice re-

ceived here to-day stale that one of the worst marine horrors to take place among the St. Pierre fleet is reported at the

French colony, lu which some seventy- five lives are believed to have been lost. The name ol the ill-fated craft is the Ang-

ler, which left St. Pierre sixty days ago with a crew of returning fishermen, num

bering seventyfive souls bound for France. Since then no tidings of either ves-

sel or crew has been heard, from and as

the voyage is generally made in about two weeks, all hope of ever seeing the Angler or her human freight has been given up'

The majority of the men belonglo France, and leave wives and families who have,

according to advices rerxived, given up hope of ever seing their loved ones again _ It is by all odds the worst sea tragedy to be enacted among any ofthe fishing fleet, and adds teriibly to lhe already long list oi' victims of the sea that dlnrs history of

the fishing industry for 1907. ‘
