Morning Post: Tuesday 1st September 1891

The Newfoundland Fisheries: St. John’s, August 31st: Two hundred claims have been presented by the people of St. George’s Bay before Sir Robert Pinsent, the commissioner appointed to investigate the losses sustained by the herring fishers of that district during the last three years through the enforcement of the treaties with France. The claims range from $100 to $6,000 each. The inquiry closes today. It is expected that any compensation awarded will be paid from the Imperial Treasury.

Newfoundland and the Fisheries Commission: St. John’s Newfoundland, Sept. 11th. The Newfoundland Press, alluding to the Anglo-American Fisheries Commission, demands that the Colony shall be represented as well as Canada. The newspapers urge that Newfoundland has vital interests at stake in the matter of the fisheries and declare that a self-governing people will resent having its affairs dealt with by a tribunal in which it has no voice. The grand jury of the St. George’s Bay District has made a strong presentment to Judge Pinsent regarding the threatened French competition in the herring fishery. The judge commented on the notifications of the French commanders that they would not allow the Newfoundland people to take herring on the west coast, and repudiated their assumption that the investiture of a British official with authority on the French shore was irregular.
