OYSTER SHIPPING DECISION.
May Be Another Week Before 1t Is
 Finally Rendered.
Especial to The Bulletin. )


 Washington. March 15.-Mr. and Mrs. Frederick L. Perry of New Ha- ven spent a couple of days in Wash ington on their way home from a trip to Richmond and old Point Comfort. MT. Perry called yesterday afternoon at the depal tment of agriculture to find out when the decision as to the shipping of oysters could be expect ed, but Dr. Wiley, who has the mat ter in charge, was out of town, and no one could say just when the de- cision would be given out.
 MT. Perry also had talk with Ivan c. We1G. who is connected with the dairy bureau of the department and has charge of the card system of determining whether milk is pure or not This system Is now in vogue in ed that the same system will be in sisted upon by the department to test the water where the oysters grow. The department officials are now at work getting up card which will be suitable in the oyster business, and the oystermen will have to comply. practically, with the same regulations that now pertain to pure milk.
 The department has tested the wa ter in all the rivers and waters of Connecticut where oysters are found, but the results will not be given out at present. They have also investigat- ed the sanitary conditions of all places where oysters are shucked. and upon this information the new rules and regulations will be based. It was intimated to MT. Perry that the de- partment would not be too severe on the Connecticut oystermen, provided they showed disposition to cooper ate with the department in cleaning up the rivers of the state. Dr. Wiley and his board will. however, insist that conditions. be made as nearly per feet as can be, and no uf1wholesome- ness or unsanitary oysters will be a1- lowed to pass the government inspec- tors It may be another week before the decision is finally rendered.

AN UGLY STORY.

An ugly rumor is in circulation in
the southeastern section OF the city,
which is causing much gossip in that
neighbOrhood The story runs that
very recently a married man of over
60 wears and his son, over 80 years old,
also married, and living with their
families in nearby houses in that
locality communicated with girl
about 10 years old, employed as a
nurse in family close by, that one OF
her relatives was at or near the ship
ward aud wanted to see her. The men.
il is said. proceeded to the place men
toned and the girl soon put in her APP
pearance and asked for her relative.
The two men, it is narrated told the girl
20 get in their boat and they would
take her to the place where her relative
was said to be. The girl, the report
goes. got on board the boat, which at
once put off down the river and soon
thereafter the cabin door was fastened
and she was made a prisoner She
was kept aboard, it is said, for some
hours during which time she was re
peatedIy assaulted 10y both men, father
and son. ard shamefully abused. 1t is
also said that as the boat passed an ark
on the river she attempted 10 give an
alarm, when she was threatened with
further bodily harm if she made an
outcry. Some time afterward, it is
said, she was put ashore and proceeded
TO the house where she was employed
and there she told of the treatment to
which she had been subjected. The
woman to whom she told her story be-
came frightened and the next day sent
the girl back to her home near Deco
guam and then told the wives OF the two
men the story which had been told her.
The two men, it is said. in the mean
time learning that the atrociOus deed
they had committed had become known

river and did not TO return until today.
