Soft shell Crabs for the Market.


 This season new branch of industry has been started by fishermen along the Chesa- peake. They have taken to breeding soft crabs for the market, and thus far it has been a very profitable business, since there is no outlay except the labor of one or two men at each place where it is carried on. The plan is to catch as many hard crabs as possible, take them up a small inlet or bay and deposit them behind some wires, where they can have the freedom of the water and plenty to eat. By carefully watching them, an expe- rienoed man is able to tell as soon as a hard crab sheds his shell and becomes soft As soon as he does he is taken out and brought to market. As every hard crab must sooner or later become soft shell crab, there Is no lost material. Having become ''soft, the crab remains so three days, though, as 3 rule, he is marketed and eaten before that time The plan of getting soft crabs for market heretofore has been to watch for them along shore, so that under the new plan there is no reason why soft crabs should be quoted high.-BGEtinsOre Anae1Tc0p.

FOREIGN GRAIN MARKET.

LONDON, July l9.-The Mark Lane Err
pres says: The weather continues showery
and unsettled. Heavy rains in certain
quarters have laid the grain crop. The
excessive rainfall at this critical period
has tended to emphasize the frmness
which has characterized the grain trade.
Owing to the depletion Of grauery stocks,
for English wheat prices have been well
sustained, and in some cases are slightly
higher, but the offerings are so small and
the quality SO inferior that choice has
been much restricted, consequently there
has been good demand for such quail
ties of foreign as can be substituted, no.
tably Australian and New Zealand, which
readily brought from 49 to 57s.
Red wheat continues unusually scarce,
particularly Saxonska and winter Ameri-
can, both OF which are readily taken at
SIS, so that in spite OF the good harvest
prospect in America and Europe there ap-
pears little chance OF any decline In the
Immediate future, while the possibilities
Of a smart rise are quiet on the cards. The
stocks OF wheat in London, July lst, were
nearly 90, 900 quarters less than the same
date In 1879, while 1t is estimated at a
total OF about $4,000 quarters, including
a large proportion OF foreign wheat, which
during the past fortnight has gone rapidly
into consumption.
Stocks OF maize are also largely d.
minished, while oats show little variation.
Business in both was quiet, butin the case
Of maize this was chiefly due to the search
ty OF spot. Sales we're readily made on
Friday at 42s. Continental buyers were
also in the market but their operations
were restricted by lack OF available pro-
duce. Sales Of English wheat last week,
1859 quarters at 49, Id, against l9.4le
quarters at Ais l0d for the same week the
previous year. The imports into the
United Kingdom for the week ending
July 10Th, were l,1s5,ll6 cwts Of wheat,
and l3,o3S5 cwts OF flour.

THE SOUND DISASTER.

Investigation In tho Collision Between
the Narragansett aud stonington.
NEW LONDON, July l9.-In the investi.
CATION to-day into the loss Of the steamer
Narragansett by the collision with asster
boat, the Stonington, Of the StoninGton
line, to Boston, Capt. Nye Of the latter
boat, said that the boats were probably
lowered in about ten minutes after the
collision. They were manned by deck
hands. The chief officer remained on
board all the time, and was forward most
OF the time directing repairs. Two pilots
had been on board previous to the disas-
ter. The reason that the number OF pilots
was reduced was probably to save ex-
pense. Iattribute the collision to mis-
lake as TO the Narrsgansett's whistles. ]
considered her fog whistle signal
TO turn TO the right, and as
made in answer to my whistle Jos. Silvian,
wheelsman OF the Stonnington, said she
steers hard and il takes about minute to
heaye the wheel over from the port TO the
starboard. l can hold her myself when
she is going full speed with the wheel bard
down, but | cannot alone heaye the
wheel over when she is going full speed.
The lookout OF the Narragansett testified:
81 never heard any whistle from the Ston-
nington until after had reported the light,
and then only one long fog blast. ] said
to the pilot, she is coming into US, and
within minute and half alter ] first
saw her she struck US. I saw the Ston
nington's light before heard her fog
whistle. She whistled after that but her
whistles were mixed up and couldn'ttell
what they were"
Stephen A. Mowry, mate OF the Nara.
gansett. testified that after the collision
there was good deal OF excitement among
the passengers. Some were without life
preseryers and asked where they could
get them, and told them each berth and
each stateroom was supplied with one. /
have been restricted by the management
as to the number OF deck hands.
