Par-The Bay Men Excited-Deleaation $
Going TO Albany.
The excitement which prevailed In Suffolk county
for the past few weeks relative to the fishery laws
now more intense than ever. TWO bills were pre-
pared, which simply transferred the monopoly. The
first bill was to the restriction contained in
chapter 567 OF the laws OF 1870 which prohibits the
use OF pounds weirs or set nets, with meshes less
than i've inches in length between March Is and
June 15. The bill was accompanied by petition
Of severa hundred citizens, and bill virtually
1870. But there were conflicting interests and Mr.
Cannan received suggestions and bills from both
parties. Section seven OF the laws OF 1870 to be
SO amended that 1t should not apply TO the salt
waters lying eastery or the boundary line between
Queens and Suffolk counties. The second bill would
relieve the pound fishermen OF the disability between
March and June, and transfer the ban to the purse
net fishermen throughout the year.
POUND FISHING
would be made legal In Suffolk county throughout
the year. while pursenet fishing would be made ille-
gal at all times Of the year. except in the waters OF
Long Island Sound. On Saturday last, when the
character OF this proposed legislation became KNOWN
strong feellng OF indignation arose among the
purse-net fishermen and they made start for Can
nan. The Green Point fishermen are willing to
yield Peconlc bay to the shore fishermen, but In
Riverhead different feeling prevails. They believe
that the
SPRING FISHING IN pECoNIC BAY
is matter too serious TO surrender thus easily and
petition with 400 signatures been prepared in
opposition This fight between the fishermen is very
bitter, one party trying to totally annihiate the
other and refusing TO Concliiate It Is thought IL
Will result In open rupture OF the bays.

THE PNEUMATIC TUNNEL.
