CONNECTICUT TROUT STRE4MS Though Stocked at Public Expense They are Practically Private
 PrOuerty

HARTFORD, Nov 1.-The Connecticut fish commissioners in their annual report discuss the question of the practical ex- clusion of sportsmen from trout fishing in the streams of the State Streams have been free many years, not only to residents of the State, but.to hundreds of New York city sportsmen who had favorite resorts in the western and southern sections This IS now ali changed. X law was passed by the last Legislature, at the instance of the farmers, forbidding persons from enter ing without leave upon the lands of an- other to hunt or fish, under penalty of S1OO. Within the past two years nearly every trout stream of any value in Con- necticut has been leased by>one or more persons and reserved for private fishing. The streams of the State having been restocked with trout at State expense. the question is raised By the Commis- sioners whether persons who have re- ceived trout from the State for several years to be placed in streams claimed to be public have now the right to debar the public from fishipg.-Neu Fork.
