When 1882 came in with the Kennebec
,;ver omen 10 its mouth and the mercury not
down TO freezing point, the ice men
anticipated a year Of high prices for
their crystal cakes. The cold, back
ward spring dashed their prospects.
and the demand for ice has been dull all
summer. Although the houses on the river
are pretty well cleaned out, more or less ice
will be carried over. The season. is now
virtually over, but until the river closes
there will be schooners loading At
the wharves. The highest price which has
been paid for ice this year is 81 so, but that
sum is exceptional; the ruling figure is much
lower. Freights have averaged about IS
cents TO New York and Philadelphia.
