LOBSTER famine BRINGS
THE LANG0USTE INTO VIEW
French shellfsh May Tempt New York
Appetites.

That portion Of New York's popula-
ton which preys on lobsters-meaning,
Of course, the well known and succu-
lent crustacean which appears in the
dictionary under the alias Homarus
americanus-are shocked at news that
there is to be a famine. There was
no wall Of agony from the Tenderloin,
but an attitude of stunned credulity, as
the fact was spread around that the
crop is short this year and not only
must the prices go up, but the Holsters
themselves will be hard to get at any
price.
The shortage began in Boston, which
is considered the fountainhead Of sup
ply, and, although it has been growing
gradually for months, did not break
over New York until later. Then the
cruel fact that the market price Of lob
ster has advanced from 25 to sc cents
a pound became known.
The average lobster weighs nearly
two pounds, costing about 20 cents in
the market. Places where a broiled
specimen is served for 81 have a mar
gin of only 30 cents, and this Is not
enough to suit them, they assert.
Broadway restaurants have planned
no action, except a possible raise IN
prices, but the stringency has become
so great that at least one has arranged
to ship in a quantity of the langouste'
or immense lobster, which grows in
French waters.
"This specimen" said this restau'
rants manager, us new in New York
It is much more delicious than the ma
tive lobster and usually weighs about
eight pounds. OF purse it would be
impossible to serve a whole one FOL
one or two persons, so we plan to cut
one up in portions, four to the lop
ster, and charge about 81 EACH"
