NO DREDGING TO BE PERMITTED Until the Bivalves Become of Merchantable Size, When They Will Be Thrown Open to Licensees.

(Special to the Eagle.) Patchogue, L. February 26 The Brook navenTown trustees yesterday decided by a unanimous vote to lease out to one or more individuals the bottom ot the entire eastern portion of Great South Bay allotted to the town in the division with the Smith heirs. The lease Is to be under the control of the trustees and it is understood that the bay bottom Is to be undisturbed until the spring ot 1803 when the seed will be marketable the bay will again be made free. This tract comprises several thousand of acres of what would become good oyster land it left undisturbed. But the natural beds which produce the seed oysters are under the "free bay" system raided as soon as the young oysters become the siza of a silver dollar, and in this way not only the seed destroyed, but the entire bottom oE 'trne bay dragged and all chance of a future volunteer plant is gone.

February, 26 It Is said that it will take at least two weeks to got the telegraph and telephone lines of Long Island, destroyed by Saturday night's ice storm, in a working condition.

There is but one trunk line in operation between Jamaica and Brooklyn and no communication east from this place. The Long Island Railroad system of wires is entirely disorganized, but Superintendent Potter says that has not Interfered as yet in the least with the running or trains. He says further: "We do not run our trains by telegraph, but by schedule and this morning the slowest train into Long Island City was but six minutes late. We only need to use the telegraph in case of an accident, or unusual tie up, which has not occurred. We are pushing as rapidly as possible the work of repairing the wires that are down." PAYNE SUED FOR DAMAGES.

Case Given to the Jury This Morning in the Supreme Court in Session at Mineola. Mineola. L. February 26 The case of Edwin H. Payne of Baldwins, who Is being sued by James W.

Thompson of Frceport for $10,000 damages, for injuries sustained when assaulted on the streets of Freeport last September, was tried at yesterday's session of the Supreme Court for Xassau County. The lawyers summed up and the case went to the jury this morning. Evidence was adduced to prove that Thompson met Payne, who was driving a runabout, and the two had some words which culminated in Payne striking Thompson several blows on the head with the butt end of a whip. From the time of the assault. Taomoson testified that ho has been a physical wreck.

and his appearance on the witness stand seemed to bear out his assertion, as he was barely able to walk and could speak with difficulty. Witnesses for the plaintiff swore that they had seen Payne assault Thompson, and tho latter's physician was placed on the stand and he testified that the plaintiff was suffering from aphasia, caused by Payne's blows. The defense called witnesses to prove that Thompson had been hit in the head during a labor strike in Brooklyn some ten or twelve years ago. and Dr. Lanchart of the Xassau County Hospital also testified that, in his opinion, the blows could not have caused aphasia.

Another physician was also summoned to corroborate Dr. Lanehart's testimony, but cross examination brought out the of ilumine, new style Blouse Uh small sailor coilar, and ir.mrr.rA with small buttotis, new model skirl, deep flounce, liabit fitting tack, with drop of bilk vake K).

At the Wright trial, the supervisors' law, under which Wright was arrested, was' de dared by Justice S. W.

Conklin to be uncon stitutional. That decision not only set Wright free, but upset all plans that were maturing tor the furtherance the natural oyster industry in local waters. The day following the Conklin decision declaring the supervisors' law unconstitutional the Board of Supervisors, who, fortunately, were in at Rlverhead, were appealed to to ctiati, law at issue, so. as. to properly protect the oysters, and which the supervisors did, imposing a sufficient penalty for tbe infraction of the law.

It has since been' learned that the supervisors have no power to make an infraction of any of their acts a misdemeanor and after a joint conference between the supervisors of Queens and Nassau counties and the For jest, Fish and Game Commission, it has been Tapcided appeal to the Legislature for re i lief. Assemblyman Reeve will this week introduce a bill to make the supervisors' laws of New York state enactments, and make, their violation misdemeanor, punishable by. fine or imprisonment, or both. Yesterday it was explained to the trustees that under the circumstances if they obtained relief through the Legislature any la.w, could not become oaeratlvo until May at the earliest, when it would bo too late to prevent possible depredations on the oyster beds, whieb'might conie wlth the "Tice leaving the ibay, and.theVnext'best course, that of leasing, was decided upon.

February 20 There was a on the proposed new trunk sewer t'ore the local board in Long island city yesterday morning. The Board of Public Improvements has made surveys and planned a trunk sewer to be built under the boulevard, with lateral sewers in the cross streets. A number of properly owners favor this plan.

These are the smaller taxpayers. i Another faction, composed of large real i estate holders, favor the construction of a i new roadway along the Jamaica Bay front and placing tho trunk sewer in this new I driveway.

Mott of Bastport. The town authorities say that they are empowered to make the lease under a decision which was rendered by Justice Birdseye in a suit brought in 1856 by Daniel Chichester, against William Henry Smith and Peter Ruland, and which fixed the town's title to the bay under its colonial patents. The courts decided that the town held title jointly with the Smith heirs, and by the partition made by order of the Supreme Court last year, the town's title to the easterly two thirds of the bay is impregnable. Immediately after their defeat in the Wright trial last fall the Brookbaven trustees revoked their previous form of license to the baymen for the privilege of oystering on the town's natural grounds and issued instead a license which gave the hoard of trustees power to do exactly what tvas done yesterday, viz. to lease out the town's interests in the bay to private individuals.

All the baymen, with about a dozen exceptions, after some persuasion, made the exchange of licenses. At yesterday's meeting the trustees passed a resolution that those refusing to accept the new oyster licenses be deprived of further privileges and their present license be nullified. The question now arises, was the action of the trustees in changing the form of license legal and can they compel the holders of the prior form or license to exchanso for the new form. It is also a question whether the trustees can deprive the baymen of further privileges, under their resolution yesterday, for failure to make the exchange desired by the board. Many of the baymen claim that they, as residents of the town, cannot be debarred from participating in the bay privileges and further that the old form of license is a valid contract and cannot be broken at tSe will of the town's representatives.

Under the terms of the nroposed leaning of the entire bay to individuals, it is understood that the lessee or lessees, are to recognize all licenses issued by the town. Among the baymen who appeared before the trustees yesterday fri support of tbe plan to lease, were Daniel J. Thurber. loaac H. Ruland, Orrin Hulse.
