Extension of Time on Season
Last Year Resuiied in Sweep-
ing the Beds—~Spswn Attach-
sdio Young Oysters. Which
; Are Small
Through their action in securing an
extension of ten days' time on the yo-
ter season last year. from July/'23 to
the 30. the natural oyster growers of
this section practically ruinedvthe en-
tire set of this year, estimated to be
worth nearly a million dollars, The
season opened yesterday, and there
was a great rush of the fleet. of 200
small craft to the natural grounds off
Bridgeport.
The first gatherings of this year's
not surprised and chagrined the grow-
era. The set was very small, and
every oyster was covered with the
new set, resembling in appearance, a
chestnut burr. ,
There were a number of New York
buyers in port. and they. with the lo
cal growers. were greatly disappoint-
ed in the set. The New Yorkbuyers
returned to Bridgeport without pur-
chasing a bushel of the' set. The ves-
sels brought into the harbor some 9.000
bushels for the first day’s work, and
there was only a market for 900 bush-
els, so the extent of the loss can be
estimated.
It was explained that the reason for
the almost complete failure of the set
was the extension of the time granted
last season, during which the growers
dredged the beds completely clean,
and as a consequence this year's
spawn had nothing in the shape of
gravel or shells to attach to, but the
set of oysters, and both the last year's
not find the new set are spoiled. being
attached to each other.
The fact that the entire set is vir-
tusily spoiled is to be greatly regret-
ted. lt means a loss of many thou-
" sands of dollars for the year among
the growers. The natural growers
will now probably have to fall back
on the private bod owners for stock.
The natural growers depend on the
action of nature Inisdepositlng shells
and gravel on the bass bottom. to
which the caller wn attaches lt-
self‘.’ The or vote , were plant grav-
el and shells in quantity as n bod for
the spawn. The. set of the natural
growers this year is to a large degree
small.
The oysters are undersized and are
covered with the new set. making
them very roiigh,.alid incilucd‘io bc‘
come oval in shapb'.
The natural growers were greatly
depressed last night. The fleet of
small boats returned well loaded from
the day's work, but there was no mur-
kei. Though the set Is very small the
growers havc some hope that another
two wccks' growth will greatly lin-
prove ii.
Captain Rowland. a natural grower,
connected with a large Providence, R.
L. oyster house. said last night:
.es. the set is small. and under-
sized, but. we hope in two week's time
there will be ll difference. 1 think
the eel. will turn out fairly good. Some
of the boys reported that the set was
good and olhcrs bad. It runs In
streaks. Last year's set was fairly
good. and we hope this year's will be
the Sfiilil'. 'i‘hc market was poor the
first day.
The Iiisi l‘l‘llllil'it was very signifi-
cant, as it cicurly showed just what
the New York buyers thought of the
set. 'l‘licy wcrc wailing ill eagerness.

to Make More Trouble
NEW HAVEN. Sept. 21.-—~Tho case
against A. S. Rosenbelm. charged with
fraudulent operations while acting as
agent for a distilling company, was
boiled in the city court today. It is
understood that satisfactory arrange-

bringing the complaint.
It is understood that Mr. Rosenhelm
is really one of the partners in the
Empire Distilling Company. of which
claimed to be a member. though one of
the other partners. a Mr. Bloch. denied
that he was over his signature on let-
ters sent to his customers. it seems
that there has been some trouble be-
tween the partners and as nearly as
could be ascertained, the New York
and of the concern took the rather
peculiar manner of ,"gctting square.”
The Sentinel takes pleasure in an-
nouncing the honesty and integrity of
Mr. Rosenheim, who was made the
victim of such an unpleasant and an-
noying set of circumstances. Mr. Ros-
enhelm felt the disgrace of his arrest
very keenly. but throughout be per-
sisted In saying that he was innocent
of wrong doing. and that he would be
able to explain it all.

Were Opposed to li—Sum of $95,000 Approprisied for Site
and Structure, and a Tax at One Mill in be Laid Each Year
Until School is Paid For
A new central high school for the.
Town of Norwalk is at last a positive
fact.
By a vote of 264 to 191, the special
town meeting. held last night at the
armory. decided to build the structure.
which it is planned to have ready for
occupancy on September 1. 1906.
The meeting which decided this im-
portant question was a large and en—
thusiastic one and brought out ardent
support from both those in favor of
the proposition and those desirous of
delaying the culmination of the pro-
ject for a few years.
There were earnest and impassioned
speeches pro and con and the big
gathering was very free with its ap-
plause or biases. signifying approba—
tion or disapproval, as the various
points were regarded.
in a nutshell, the meeting voted
to erect the proposed new control

was allowed by the meeting to prev
pare for and build the school. It is
proposed to pay for theschool grad-
ually, year by year. and to this end
a special tax of one mill. to go on
this account, was laid. This extra
tax will be due and payable next
June.
There were cast at last night's meet-
ing inst 405 ballots. but to the observ-
ers It seemed that quite a number or
