OTTAWA, November 3."
Newfoundland's dispute with America regarding the herring fishery in the bay and off the islands is increasingly serious. The Americans there sent a steamer to convey 50 men to vessels outside the three miles limit.
The colonial cruiser Fiona compelled the steamer to tetarn and threatened to seize hear as she was without a clearance, which the Customs refuse to grant except for a genuine voyage.
The Americans declare they will appeal to Washington to send a warship.
