Chap- pell has issued a warning to all persons who interfere with lobster pots owned by parties other than themselves and to those who take short lobsters from the waters hereabouts. This warning comes in connection with severe penalties imposed upon two men caught off Pleasure Beach, hauling pots not owned by them and also keeping short lobsters in their posses: It is said that summer tors at some of the beaches have been in the habit of hauling lobster pots and this practice has got to stop or the offenders if caught will meet with severe penalty The victims were Rogero Grandlene of East street, New London and Gero Pensos- sini of 77 Walbach street, New London. Deputy Game Warden Lewis A. Ross Harry J. Edgecomb, Garwcod F. Seipel, with George A. Darling and Walter D. Moran of Waterford, were cruising off Pleasure Beach on a avatch for raids on lobster pots, which have become quite fre- quent. At about 4.45 Tuesday morning they saw Grandlene and Pensolsini haul- ing pots belonging to Garwood F. Seipel of 23 Howard street and Harry J. Edg- comb of Williams street. They watched the men for some time and after they had unloaded a number of pots they set after them and shouted for them to halt The men were i na power boat and tried to get away, in the meantime toss- ing overboard a large number of lobsters which it is presumed were undersize They were caught, however, and a num- ber of short lobsters were found in their boat. They were taken before Justic Thomas F. Morton at Jordan at 10 o'clock, and, after hearing evidence in the case, Justice Morton imposed a fine of $50 and costs on a charge of hauling owned by them and 30 and costs for having short lobsters in their possession. The total fine and costs assessed against each man amounted to $1 det of payment, they were taken to jail It is said that some lobster fishermen have anywhere from $2,000 to $7,000 in- vested in pots, gear and other equipment and many of them have lost many lob- sters through this sort of theft. One man who has 80 nots, and would ordinarily get about 150 lobsters in three days, got only eight lobsters ‘from the entire lot recently. Game Warden Chappell announces that the deputies have been instructed to get after all violators of the fish and gam lays and summer visitors who may have been practising this so of thing are advised to watch their step this summer.
