NEV|LLS AND
HIS PARTNERS
COMPROMISE
Agree to Sell the

LITIGATION TO BE DROPPED

AT $1,soo,ooo.
A Written Compact and Final Ar

Friend.
LITIGATION TO BE DROPPED
PRICE OF THE PROPERTY FIXED
AT $1,soo,ooo.

CAPTAIN w. A. Nevills and his warning
partners, W. H Martin and John Ballard,
in the celebrated Rawhide mine, have
agreed to settle the several pending suits
between them in a novel manner. The plan
of compromise evolved from bluff MAGE
by Martin and Ballard, according to the
version of the affair given yesterday by
Captain Nevills.
Believing that his partners were endeav-
oring to take advantage of him in con-
nection with certain deal that was pend
ing for the sale of the mining property,
Nevills about three months ago began suit
against them to protect his interests. This
suit was followed by two others, including
one demanding $167 900 damages. Frequent
endeavors were made by the mutual
friends of the parties to the litigation to
have the matter settled out of court, but
without avail until three weeks ago.
Martin and Ballard charged that Cap
tain Nevills would not agree to anything
that was fair They declared that they
were willing to allow the property to be
sold to third parties and thus put an end
to all disputes, chickering's ana 4sgatlSon,
proposition This was brought to the
knowledge of the captain, and he prompt
.lY sent word back for them to name the
price for which the mine was to be sold
and to put their offer into writing. This
was done and was at once accepted by
Captain Nevills.
An agreement was drawn up which the
three men as we'll as all the smaller
stockholders in the mine signed, by the
terms of which the Rawhide mine was to
be sold at an upset price OF 900, the
proceeds to be divided among the share
owners in proportion to. their holdings.
This agreement has been placed in the
hands of a third party, whose. name is
kept a secret and who is given full power
to dispose of the property. The agree
ment further provides that all pending
litigation be abandoned.
1t is said that a prospective buyer has
been found and that he will make a visit
to the mine in about a week. Owing to
the lack of water the mine has not been
worked for the past six months, but pre-
vious to that time its output is reported
to have been $40,0 a month.

Ia W OFF TO
Poachers on Trout Preserves Thts Year
VIII he Severely Dealt with,

The friends and supporters of the
State Game and Fish association are
unusually alert this season to prevent
fishing before the law is off. The farm
ers and riparian owners along the diff
ferent streams have Joined forces with
the lessees of the fishing privileges to
prevent poaching, both in and out of
season.
The fishing privileges will be protect
ed by the streams being well patrolled,
and the local constabulary are in earn
est to protect the rights of the farmers
and lessees. This applies especially to
The streams where large sums of money
have been spent in raising fish and re-
stocking.
Most of the preserves have been eX-
ceedingly well stocked and the owners
are fearing more than ever that I'M
scrupulous persons will take advantage
of the fact. Last year was marked not
only by an exceptional amount of stock
ing by the state and private parties, but
Those planted by the state were, many
of them, large enough to attain the le
gal length of six inches this year, and
some of the fish used in planting the
private preserves weighed from quar-
ter to half a pound or more.
This season may test the question as
to whether rainbow trout some of
which were put in last year, can thrive
in Connecticut waters.

Governor Lounsbury Agrees to the
Governments Terms.
Governor Lounsbury some time ago
applied to the secretary of the navy for

of the vessel except the necessary wear
and tear, and that the navy department.

nent sailing crew, the men to be paid
and messed by the government. Gov
ernor Lounsbury has accepted the terms
and has so notified the navy depart
ment. The cruiser, which is converted
yacht, very handsome specimen Of
naval architecture, will be sent on and
stationed in New Haven harbor. The

sponsible to the government should an

gaining on Wednesday, again sold yes
terday at 210N. 1t is a rise of 51a points
since March Is. A little over year ago
the price was 212A. The roads earn
ings have been greatly increasing OF
late, and have given rise to a report
that the old 10 per cent dividend is to
be restored. Officials of the road say
this is mere stock gossip talk. The Con-
solidated, by an order from Washing
ton, is to be allowed a notable increase
of its bonded territory in which 1t can
deliver bonded merchandise imported
into the United States for further de-
livery at various interior cities ana

President Hall, in which permission was
asked to add certain ports and lines or
railway and water routes to the nst
embraced in the original bonds OF the
company, approved July S, 1894 In all
seventy three ports or supports OF en-
try have been added; also 173 lines OF
