It is claimed that the fire was of incen~

was stated that at night the "floors in

do not wet their factory floors at night.
the mistake of so doing at South Nor-

For seventeen years past the public
here have been forCed into a conflict
with a combination that know the tricks
of the law. and that though they have
no foundation in fact to stand on. enlist
the law's delays and a few weak-minded
persons by holding out inducements ofa
share of the spoils by their giving them
their countenance and support that dust
may be thrown in the eyes of the public
to make it believe that they have a just
case and deserve sympathy. This is the
game now being played by unscrupulous.
persevering men in the trope of making
themselves ’ ' , ‘iiowing full well that
their gal e. if successful. will impover-
ish mult tiides of the poor for all time.
The Stu e Fish Commissioners have sur-
veyed all the oyster plantations in the
state. together \“ the natural beds.
and mapped them so that all interested
can see for themselves where our natural
beds are situated. But there is one little
break in the map which for several years
they have refrained frc ni designating on
account of the influences of the cornbr-
nation above spoken of. But seeing that
these leaclies were not disposed to lose
their pretended hold. and knowing for
themselves that these were natural beds
decline to have their work unfinished.
and in the name of justice to the public
have reported to the legislature that this
unfinished portion of their map are the
natural beds of the state which the law
says im Iicitly cannot be owned by any
man. he legislature iuunediatcly ap—
pointed a committee of six to enquire if
this report was just and true. and noti-
tied the parties interested to appear be-
fore theni and show cause why this re-
port should not be accepted. There
were two meetings of the committee.
The first. was adjourned. Last. Tuesday
week they again met at Hartford. The
evidence for the fish commissioners was
there in large numbers. and the room
was crowded with a respectable audi—
ence. many of them oyster-men from
New Haven. The case was called. and
as usual the head of the combination
was there without any evidence but him-
self. and urged dday. which was in fact
the onlv defense he could produce. Their
sole reliance for years has been delay.
hoping the people would sooner or later
getytired of a riding their money in the
defense of t eir rightini norant of the
fact that they are like Mi ton's angels.
” vital in every part. cannot but
by nnnihilntion die.“ At: this point
the counsel for the Oyster Association at
South Norwolk. J. Belden Hurlbutt. gave
an exhaustive statement of the acts of
this combination in striving to steal the
public‘s natural beds. The audience
were. astonished at the revelations made
to them of the bold cheek and perse-
verence of this steel. The committee
decided to hear the evidence which was
numerous and convincing. and were
satisfied that the report of the State Fish
Commissioners was truth .and . justice.
By some unknown influence that was
brought. to bear on Vincent Colyer, he
was induced to speak against the people.
He was asked by the committee for some
reason for his action. which he at first
declined to give, but finally said he won
alwaye in favor of the under dog. or. in
other words. the under nun, who. no-
