HARBOR NEWS.
Warfare in Lobster Prices-Tke Last
Yacht of the Season-Terriffc Fight With
An Eagle-He Made Believe Drunk.

The lobster firms of O. W. Marston &
Co., S. A. Skillings and Frank Willard
have jointly leased the lobster pound at
House Island from Holbrook & Trefethen
and will proceed to stock it with as
many Holsters as they can as soonHas pos
sible. They will put in at least 60, 600 and
may put in 100000 There has been a
good deal of warfare in prices among
Holsters dealers in Portland lately and
the smack captains and fishermen have
reaped the benefit. The price is higher
than the demand warrants. The smacks
get u cents a piece, and they pay the
fishermen from 9 to 10 1-2 cents apiece.
Since the dealers can only sell for cents
pound, and since the average lobster
weights l 1-2 pounds, it will be seen
that the selling price is just about the
same as the paying price. Figure in the
cost of barrels and payment of help and
the local dealers can't be making very
much money. 1t isn't the scarcity of
Holsters that makes the price high. Its
the warfare of prices. At retail now
lobster meat COSTS the consumer 50 cents
a pound. This price is SO high that it
affects the demand. AS a result
of this warfare, the three firms above
mentioned have leased the pound on
House Island
Mr.. e. Larry of South Harpswell,
bagged nine coots and fish eagle on
Saturday. The eagle which was only
wounded on the wing, showed fight when
taken into the boat. He sank his talons
in Mr.. Larry's arm and seized his right
arm with his beak, resisting all efforts to
break his hold. Mr.. Larry who was alone
in the dory with his arms thus pfnioned.
finally conquered the fierce bird by break
ing his neck with his teeth.
A. Newman Of Cleveland, O., and M.
Locke of Portland, rowed a long dis
tance race from Portland to Yarmouth
and back Sunday, which resulted in a
dead heat Neither of the oarsmen are
satisfied and their race will be rowed
again at an early date.
The beautiful steam yacht Huntress,
came into the harbor yesterday and
coaled at Randall & McAllisters. She
is III feet over all, 81 feet on her water
line and 16 feet beam. The Huntress is
owned by Mr.. F. G. Fowler of East
Adams, Conn, who. with a party of in.
innate friends, is going on a hunting ex-
petition up into the Moosehead lake reg
ion. The yacht will leave for Bangor to-
night. She is fitted with electric lights
and a powerful search light. She was
built by Chas 7. Seabury & Co., at
Nyack, on the Hudson, and was launched
last May.
Yesterday afternoon whenithe crew of
one of the small SC boomers at Nidgery' IS
wharf came back to the vessel, they
found a man apparently in drunken
sleep in the captains berth. He was
hustled out in short order. Soon after he
was discovered apparently asleep in a
berth in another Of the little schooners
at the same wharf. This time the crew
telephoned for the police. The fellow.
who was apparently drunk, discovered
what they were up to and ran off VI the
wharf as no drunken man ever ran be-
fore. He was discovered twice in at
tempts to steal and feigned drunkenness
both times.
