MAKE RICH WHALE CATCH
IN ARCTIC PAST SEASON
The whalers of the North Pacific
anil Arctic oceans have made the lar
gest and richest catch this season that
| lias been knownjfor a number of years, j
The vessels have all returned laden |
with whalebone, all of them touching;
at Pnalaska for supplies and fuel,
i The whalers caught from live to j
twelve whales each, and as each fish is J
worth from $s,(KK) to $12,OK) it will | J
easily he seen that the owners and I
seamen are very jubilant over the
| season's catch.
The Herman, Capt. -las. 11. J'ilton, .
secured the largest catch, taking
j twelve valued at $110,000. The hark!
Balluga secured nine, Win. Palis six,
1 lvarluk six. Belvedere six, and Jenette i
| live. The Bowhead which was re
ported some weeks ago caught nine.
The total value of the catch this sea
son will he over half a million dollars. |
of this amounu two thirds will go to?
the owners of the vosssels and one
! third is divided among the soilor.s.
i Formerly the oil of the whale was
saved as it was quite valuable, but. ol
! recent years other oils that are much
cheaper have taken the p ace of whale
oil. Whale hone brings a large price j
in the market, having been quite
j scarce for the past few years.
