LOBSTERMEN UNITED. Have No Thought of Weakening Contest For Their Rights. “(Special to The Bulletin.) Noank, Conn., April 27—A prominent lobster fishermen of this place when asked if the Protective association was divided in opinion in regards to taking out ‘a_state license, satd: ‘“We are strongiy united and will improve every possibility to maintain our rights!” “We have boycotted no law. The law reads that mno person shall en- ‘gage in_or follow the occupation of Iobster fishing in this state ugless he shall first have _obtaimed a permit therefor from the commissioners of fisheries and game.’ There are very few ‘fishermen from this village who fish in Connecticut waters; the ma- Jority set their trawls in the Race, ‘whose waters are governed by New York state, to which we pay a lcense for the privilege of edrning our bread and butter. We who have this New York license are breaking mno laws of -Connecticut and fail to see why the commissioners hound us in this mat- ter. which was decided in_our favor in the courts last fall when F. N. Ash- by was tried for not having taken out this permit. Those among us who fish in the waters of Connecticut have complied with the requirements of the law and’ taken out the permit. “Some of those fishing in New York watera took out the Comnecticut per- ‘mit for this reason. At-the close of the lobster :season we are occupied in fishing for blackfish and set out traps in Commecticut water to capture crabs -are used as bait for blackfish- . This makes it necessary to take out”the Connecticut lcense. “Have you been asked to submit a yearly report of your catches of lob- sters?” he was asked. y “We have.

In years past, it has been the cus- tom of the commissioners to grant to-the fishermen to hold egz- lobsters and deliver them to the hatchery for artificial propagation. This permit has been necessary on ac- | count of the state jaw, which read | ‘Female lobsters with the ova or J when caught, shall, wthout avoidable injury, be immed ately returned to the waters from which taken’ We understand that this permit will not be issued this season unless the fishermen first take out a Connecticut state license, but we whe fish in New York waters have no use for this license and fail to under- stand why we are requested to take it out.” “Will the fishermen abide by the Gecision of the assoelation to" return egg-bearing lobsters to, the water?” “Nearly all of the fishermen here and ‘in other fishing towns have agreed to do_so.:. There wil no doubt be some few who will bring the product to the hatchery; not that they think that artificlal propagation brings re- sults, but for the mighty dollar.” “The fishermen will suffer consider- able financial loss in carrying out this plan? “During the first two or three years, yes. But later, as the eggs develop, the returns will more than balance this deficlency.” “Will an effort be made by the as- sociation to revoke the New York state law, whereby the fishermen have to pay for the privilege of fishing in its ‘waters " “Nothing has been donme as vet in that matter, but there is little doubt in my mind that the time is not far dis- tant when something will be done.” “What will be the wresult?” “My impression is that the fisher- men would enjoy the privilege of frea fishing, but it would require considera- ble_money to carry the case through. “Has the association sufficient cap- ftal to handle the casc?” “If it is needed, we could raise $10,- 009 to fight the case; but we hone to arrive at an understanding without going to the courts, where we will hold out for our rights!” YORK BOARDING HOUSE. - With the Dead Man Was a_ Woman Who Has Disappearsd—Smith Left Wife and Family in° Massachusetts.
