During the season of 1898 the New Jersey fishermen caught 5,060sturgeon, valued at $19,375, while they prepared 1,067 kegs of caviar,valued at $76,861. As the fisheries of Delaware and Pennsylvaniawere not canvassed for the year 1898 it is impossible to show the catchfor those States. It is estimated by a leading dealer that during the season of 1899,only 700 kegs of caviar were put up by all the Delaware Bay andRiver fishermen. Report U. S. F. C. 1 899.
