SPANISH FISHERMEN
overran to wimsn mn A STRANGE PROCEDURE. Pres* Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. GIBRALTAR, January 11. The crews of fifty fishing craft manned by 300 Spaniards, objecting to British craft fishing in their reserves, armed themselves with revolvers, knives, and bludgeons, and the boats surrounded the Spanish trawler San Antonio, six miles north-east of Gibraltar, and swarmed aboard, forcing the crew to put to sea in search or the British trawler Juanville, which was believed to be cruising thereabouts. Unable to locate her, they seized a second Spanish boat, the Maria, and destroyed the fishing gear. Both craft' were looted of provisions, and later found grounded.
