YEARIING TROUT DISTRIBUTED.

HARTFORD, Conn, March 26, 1894. In
view Of the continued scarcity of trout, the
Fish Commissioners have announced that
they will take energetic steps to replenish
the brooks. They will distribute 1900, 900
trout fry about the State, to be planted at
the cost of the persons who obtain them. A
novel method Of restocking brooks will
probably be inaugurated next year, the re-
suit of which will be watched with interest.
Game Warden Collins of this city has been
converted to an enthusiastic believer in the
introduction of s'yearling" trout, and feels
confident that they would be satisfactory
means of cultivation This belief is steadily
gaining ground all over Connecticut ssYear-
Ing trout, it is thought, could be more
cheaply reared on artificial food and easily
protected from turtles, snakes, minks king
fishers and other enemies, while minnows
and frogs make sad inroads on the fry.

The charge was made last week in Wash
ngton dispatches that Secretary Gresham
caused to be Struggled through Congress,
on the last night of the recent session, an
addition to the deficiency appropriation,
giving Hon. +. j. Phelps of Vermont and
Hon. J. c. Carter of New York $1,000
each additional fees for their services in
the Bering sea arbitration case at Paris.
The effect of this appropriation, according
to these dispatches was to give Phelps and
Carter, who are both Cleveland men, S2S.-
800 of fees, exclusive of $50 day for eN-
penses; while eX-Secretary of State John
W. Foster. and Frederick Il. Coudert re-
ceived only SIS, 800 each. Mr. Phelps,
who has been interviewed at Burlington.
declares these statements to be untrue so
far as they imply unjust discrimination to-
ward himself and Mr. Carter. He says the
other lawyers and commissioners were
paid less because they rendered less SER
vice. There was no stipulation in advance
as to what Mr.. Phelps and Mr.. Carter
should be paid, and Secretary Gresham
thought entirely reasonable the sum
which they finally named for their fees
The New York sun gets in a character
istic drive at the whole arbitration bust
ness and thinks the financial outcome "a
glorious victory for the American juris-
consults,' "when We remember that the
American case was lost at every point, :"
