costs OF the referee are estimated at
about 5000.
The testimony at the referees hear
ing showed that Gates-Madden feud
had its origin in race which Mad
den's 2-year-old Uncle won at Bel
mont park June 5, 1907. Uncle's vic
tory is said to have netted Gates
$4,000. the tip" having been given
to Madden.
Gates, out of gratitude. according TO
the testimony, bought $4,000 worth
of Texas Oil company stock for Mad
den's account. Gates then went to
Europe. Madden, claiming the stock
was put in his name without his con-
sent, refused to pay for It and the
stock was later sold for $4,000 Gates
then brought suit.

OYSTERMEN ARE GOOD
No Violations OF The Gull Law Reported
By Capt. Turner

Capt. James A. Turner, deputy COM
mander of the State Fishery force and
commander of the steamer McLane,
arrived here yesterday after thorough
inspection of the Chesapeake Bay north
of Annapolis. Captain Turner re-
ported that he had not made any arrest
on account of the possession Of unculled
oysters, either on his last tour of duty
or at any time during the season. This
is remarkable. as Captain Turner s
beat covers the whole of the northern
half of the bay on both sides.
Captain Turner attributes respect
for the law to the activity of the Off
cials for several years past, and also to
the little market for unculled oysters.
Packres will not pay over 20 cents a
bushel for unculled oysters, while they
will pay so cents per busbel for culled
oysters. The packers having unculled
oysters in their possession are liable to
a heavy penalty. The oystermen who
were disposed to violate the law have
come to the conclusion that
it does not pay.
