OUR OYSTER INDUSTRY.

An English Syndicate Seeking to Buy
 Up ana Control she oyster Industry
 of This sSection-OMers to New Haven
 Dealers.
 A big scheme is now interesting the oyster dealers ot New Haven. It has been kept very quiet, but 1t is learned from authentic sources that . big English syndicate is en- deavoring to buy up and control the oyster industry in this section, and is also reaching for the control of oyster grounds in various other sections of the United States. Agents of this syndicate have been in New Haven and made offers to various of our large oyster dealers for the purchase of their oyster beds. steamers, shops, etc. The syndicate doesn't exactly want the earth, but does want all the oyster grounds 1t can get hold of. The New Haven dealers who have been approached on the subject have been given weeks time ir which to consider and decide in reference te accepting or declining the offers made them They do not appear to be in any hurry in thu matter, but the offers have been made 1T good faith and the dealers spoken of ar' weighing the matter and giving 1t serioul considerations.

GOING FOR A FOX.
Bus Getting Instead . Big Wildcat.
 (Hartford Timesl

lHattford Times.l
 On Monday of this week MT. Norris Bacon of West Smsbury killed . wildcat at short notice. He was out with his gun hunting . fox and had both barrels loaded with buck shot. It was in wild section of woods and lsdges and the two chief figures in the little drama met each other unexpectedly. Look ing up the slope the hunter saw the "var- mint" a soon as she (for 1t was Q young female cat) saw him. The recognition at . distance of eleven rods was mutual and in- stautaneous, and instantaneous was tho flash of Bacon's right-hand barrel. The cat was coming down directly toward him on the top of two rail fence that crowned an old stone wall in the woods. One buckshot broke the right hind leg and another entered one eye. The animal lsaped about ten feet upward and fell, . dying and very soon dead cat. She was brought to town to-day and exhibited, where all such specimens are bound to be brought, in,t the Times office. She was evi- dently young cat and probably less than two years old. Her formidable curving claws, the armament of big feet terminating enor- mously thick and muscular fore legs, like . panther's, are still sharp as thorus; whereas on an old wildcat these weapons are pretty sure to be worn and dulled. Her teeth in- olude an ugly array of long and big fangs, which, in an attack upon a man, would per haps do as much execution as the claws. The characteristic short, stubby tail of all wildcats was hers too-sn appendsge little over two inches long.
 Wildcats, never fat, are always mass of steel-like muscles; but this one already weighed nineteen and one-half pounds, and had frame which in year or two more of roast beef and turtle soup would have made 6 thirty. pound cat.
 "What would you have done," was asked of the hunter, eff you had merely hurt, with out disabling heri Wouldn't she have come for youf'
 "Yes, no doubt; but in that case would have given her the other barrel"
 And he Is cool and collected enough to have done it, and done 1t effectively, too.

onURon CHOIR SINGERS.

The United Church Pleased With
 the Soprano on Tr1al-Changes
 Talked Of for Dwight Place Choir and
 other Choir Changes.
 From all indications it is probable that the United church society will retain the service of Mrs. Dutton, who has been in the choir fer the past three Sundays and given excellent satisfaction. Mrs. Dutton lives in Phila- delphia and has the reputation of being ono of the best amateur sopranos in that city. Sho has sung in one of the prominent churches there.
 Considerable interest has been aroused in the music circles over the fact that the Dwight Place church society has about de- cided to reduce the music appropriation
 $4OO and establish chorus choir of volun- tary singers from the church. The Aocks of
 people who have from time to time filled
 the church to overfowing at praise services,
 will regret the absence of the present well trained singers and perhaps there will then be more room to seat the audience. The tenor of the second quartette has been re- tained for the ensuing year.
 The members of the First M. E. church so-
 ciety have been agitating the question for
 some time past of recognizing their choir
 and 1t is probable that such steps will be
 taken in the near future. This means . con-
 siderable increase in expenditure of money
 and probably every means will be taken to make the music as fine as any church in the
 city. The congregation still remembers the excellent choir that 1t had Q year or more
 ago assisted materially in making the ser vices attractive. The plan that meets with the most favor Is to secure first class quar- tette and members of the committee have already been looking around with this pur- pose in mind.
 There will be no change at St. Paul's this year and the members are we'll satisfied with
 what has been supplied them from the well-
 trained chorus and quartette. Professor
 Fowler has taken great pains with his sing
 CTS and carried them to an advanced point of
 excellence. St. Paul's people would be 10th to part with Miss Nora Russell, whose voice l is an inspiration in itself. In the other leading Episcopal churches
 there will probably be no material changes in There is some interest and curiosity
 whether Calvary Baptist society will retain
 this year it's present high priced singers, as it
 is understood that last year the committee l wished to retrench the music expenditure, l but certain wealthy members of the congre- gation announced themselves willing to sup | ply the amount necessary to make up the bal ance for retaining the old quartette. But fl | is very probable that some such arrangement will be made this year again if it should be necessary, rather than lose the singers. Miss Jennie Thomas, the leading soprano of the Humphrey street church, is another l one that has received call to New York i city. She has received very fattering offer | to sing in one of the churches in the big | city, but she still has the subject under con. | eideratiou.

A NERIOUs CHARGE.

John Melville Bassett Arrested on
 she Accusation of Betrayal.
 According to story of tho New York Sun yesterday John Melville Bassett, formerly in tho real estate buainess in this city, was ar- rested last Tuesday in New York city on charges arising from undue intimacy with Miss Tessie Covert, daughter of Jerome O. Covert, ,one of the prominent men of Jamaica, L. I. He had been paying the young lady attentions for some time and was supposed, by her acquaintances, to be engaged to her. She suddenly became critically ill and made an ante-mortem statement to the coroner and jury, which led to Bassett's arrest. Her con- dition now Is very precarious, with scarcely . chance for life. Bsssett, while in New Haven, lived on Orange street and had an office in Exchange building, where he carried on his real estate transactions. He left New Haven about three years ago, and has since bean in New York and Brooklyn.

 tion and Bancroft's Letser-Sporting
 Talk.
 The Bridgeport Wheel clubs polo team re- csived an nnequivocal defeat at the hands of the local Wheel clubs team at the rink last night. The visitors had no business in the game after it had been played seven minutes. Bridgeport started in with rush and ita work made a great many of the audience think the local team would be defeated, but by superior team work the New Havenera forged ahead and won in e canter. It was . very clever amateur game. The feature of the game was the rushing of Andrews of the home team. This young man caged every goal for his team and gives promise of bud. ding into full-fsdged professional. He did his work well and his drives were of the ls Cotter order. Bronson of the home team played good center and blocked and passed the ball in fine style. The work of the Bridgeport team was on the whole very poo, and the least said of it the better. This game makes the seventh consecutive victory fc, the Nev Haven team and if they should los' every game from now on they would still re tain the championship.

 Feb. 27.-The annual report of the chief engineer and fire commissioners just puh- ished, shows that during the past year the amount of property destroyed by fire was $5, ,6A. .65, and on this there wss an insurance of @, ,965 65. There were only eleven alarms. The total loss was less than for any year since 1886. The department comprises four com panies and ninety-six men, and perfect har' mony and discipline prevails. The report ia very satisfactory one. Chief Osborne makes number of suggestions that will doubtless call for considerable discussion and approval; such as establishing fire limits authorizing au official to make inspections etc.
