Stations 6 and 7. — On August 18 two seine hauls were made at station No. 6, 

 on the Mississippi River. No fish were caught in these hauls. On the same day 

 another haul was made about 7 miles below station No. 6, but here, again, no fish 

 were taken. At this latter place one haul was made in a slough still connected with 

 the Mississippi River. Here one short-nosed gar was taken. This fish was very 

 sluggish. A haul made at station No. 7 on the evening of August 18 likewise 

 took no fish. 



On August 19 four hauls were made on the Mississippi River between Hastings 

 and St. Paul. Three of these were made between stations 6 and 7. One was made 

 just above South St. Paul (that is, between stations 5 and 6). Not a single fish was 

 taken in these hauls.
