HARTFORD, April 19.—-The commit toe on Fisheries and Game found its room crowded Wednesday afternoon at hearings on eighteen bills relating to shell fisheries. The small growers be- low Bridgeoprt were represented by ex-Speaker Kenesly, the general on inion being that. the various bills were drawn In the interests of the big grow- ers and that an effort was being made by them to get control of some of tho natuwill oysbcr ground. Most of the bills were drawn by lawyer A. McC. Mathewson, of New Haven, and most of them were dis- tasteful alike totbe small and large growars. one bill, providing that grants made by the Shell Fish corn mission shall lapse in two years if not staked or improved. was not op bill Opposition broke loose on a mission to pay not exceeding $300 to any person who shall furnish evidence causing the conviction of any one guilty of a violation of the shell fish laws. it seemed to give employment to some successor to D. Preston At- wood. A bill regarding the taxation of oys- ter ground was opposed by Mr. Rowe. and Judge Mathewson retorted by ask- inng. Rowe how much oyster ground he paid taxes on. Mr. Rowe said he did. not know, and Judge Mathewson told him that personally he did not list any and that. his company, H. C. Rowe dz. (30., only paid on 150 acres. Sena- tor Donovan said the statement that the greatest oyster grower in the state only paid taxes on 160 acres was sinlo ply astonishing. Mr. Rowe said that. most of the company's ground was in state waters and that the tax is paid to the state. General opposition was made to a bill which makes mandatory an exist, ing permissive not allowing the select» men of a shale town to appoint a com- mittee of three with power to desig- nate oyster groundio applicants.
