The NIackereI and Codfsh Fleets.

The total quantity of mackere landed by
the fleet at outports and here during last week.
according to the Boston Fish Bureaus report,
has been about 5000 barrels. The schooner
Merrimac, the last of the Boston feet, arrived
on Thursday with 70 barrels. The Gloucester
fleet are all in and so far as can be ascertained
the entire shore mackerel fleet have hauled up
for the season. Thirteen sail of the North Bay
feet are still out, and at last accounts were on
the Nova Scotia coast, between Halifax and
the Gut of Canso, with from 1000 to 1900 bar
rels of mackerel on board. The stock of mack
erel now held in Gloucester is reported at 49,
500 barrels, all told, the smallest stock for
many years at the close of the season. At
least three.fourths are No. A. The Georges cod
feet have been doing well, ard vessels arrived
with an average of 10000 pounds each. Tho
Gloucester Grand Banks feet have all arrived.
The stock OF Georges cod in Gloucester is
light, bat the stock of bank fish ia estimated at
100, 600 quintals.-BJston Journal.

Saturday afternoons Juvenile session at the
Portland Roller Skating Rink was more large.
ly attended than ever before, the surface be-
ing fairly crowded with TIE happy little ones,
many of whom showed considerable profcien-
cy. The rising generation will all skate. Man
sger Whitney has certainly demonstrated
his method of conducting rink,-by courte-
GUS attention to the comfort of his patrons, the
exclusion Of Objectionable persons, and pro-
curing the best of music and other accessories,
Ito be the screst of success. Business at his
rink has trebled as compared with last season.
1t has been found necessary within day or
two to procure fifty additional pairs of skates
small sizes-to accommodate increased juven-
lie patronage. 1t is probable that music will
be provided for afternoons also, If attendance
at the sessions continues to increase as it has
been doing of late.

SUBURBAN NOTES.
Eig0uia,

Last evening, about $50 o'clock Mr.. Thomas
Il. Haskell's son went out to the barn to milk
and took a lantern with him. After his return
to the house the rear end of the barR was dis
covered in flames. Mr.. Haskell's neighbors
gathered in great numbers, and Chief En-
gineer Littlefield of Portland was telephoned.
de sent out steamer No. 3, and went himself.
When he arrived however with the steamer
the neighbors had saved the house. The barn
was burned fiat, and all the hay and tools it
contained A small one story ell, connecting
the house and barn was also burned, and one
story building used as an ice house by Clark &
Chaplin. Mr.. Haskell resides on Lincoln
street, opposite the Rolling Mills. His house
is valued at four or five Thousand dollars, and
the ell is covered by insurance. The barn,
stock, tools and hay are insured for 81 600
with Prentiss Loriug in the Phoenix. Mr..
Haskell could not estimate his loss.
Sacearappa.
The barn burnt Friday night was located in
Saccarappa not Cumberland Mills as stated
in Saturdays PRESS, and was owned by Levi
p. Warren and occupied by Lorenzo Knight. a
teamster. MIR. Knight was in the barn when
the fire was discovered about half past eight
O'Clock in the evening. He says he has no
knowledge of its origin, and is sure that it was
not caused by his lantern.
Something thought to resemble the remains
of human being has been found in the ruins
near where the flames were first seen, and it is
now thought tramp may have sought shelter
in the barn over night and caused the confiagra-
tion by attempting to light his pipe. The hay
burned belonged to L. B. Lowell of Gorham.
Mr.. Knights loss will be serious as he has no
property except his team. He succeeded in
getting out yoke of oxen but SO rapid was
the speed of the flames that the other amin ais
could not be rescued.
Bowery Beach.
The Life Saving Service authorities, who
two years age bought a small lot near the Two
Lights on which to establish station, finding
the site insufficient for the purpose, are now
negotiating for further purchase of land ad-
joining, comprising an area some two or three
times larger than the original lot.
Scarboro.
Mr.. Lot Libby, an old gentleman living in
the northern part of this town, recently lost
his pocket book containing $50. 1t is thought
that it was dropped near the house, and picked
up by little dog that is in the habit of pick
ing up things and hiding them away. Mr..
Libby feels badly about it.
Ferry Village.
The schooner Geo. W. Pierce which ran on
Ram Island ledge few nights ago has been
on the marine railway the past week for re-
pairs together with the schooner Enterprise
which has been undergoing a thorough over
hauling. The cost of repairing will amount to
about 5000 for each schooner.

UNHAPPY IRELAND.

Great Excitement Over Wholesale Evic-
tiens i'm Longhrea-Proposed Visit of the
Prince of Wales N Mediator.
LONDON, Nov. 10.-Great excitement exists
throughout Loughres, in Ireland, in conse-
quence of system of Wholesale evictions put
into operation yesterday, and a direct result of
the revived feuds between the Orangemen and
the Nationalist. The evicting landlords, be-
fore proceeding to oust their tenants, secured
the protection of the police and had soldiers
with fixed bayonets stationed on guard around
each farm that was to be cleared. Thus pre-
pared, the landlords had constables dispossess
all the tenants, putting them and their effects
into the roadways. The evictions began at
daylight, and were we'll underway before the
neighbors of the sufferers were made aware of
what was going on. Then all the farmers and
farm hands for miles around gathered in
groups about the different scenes of eviction,
aud nothing but the overpowering strength of
the well entrenched military prevented the
worst forms OF rioting and bloodshed.
The Prince of Wales has received many
pressing invitations to make state tour
through Ireland, and Mr.. Gladstone, with
whom the Prince is great favorite, is encour-
aging His Royal Highness to make the tour,
assured that hispresenceswill have most sal
utary effect in -quieting existing troubles,
which are daily becoming more riotous than
ever. The Tories are already opposing the
plan of sending the Prince to Ireland as
royal mediator, aud pretend to fear that the
Irish revolutionists will attempt his life.

RAILWAY NOTES.
A Pool Disturber,

| Next Spring there will enter into the traffic
elements over which Mr. Fink will have no
control, especially during the season of lake
navigation, the Canadian Pacific and the two
new routes it will open from Montreal West
ward. The Canadian Pacific will first open its
line from Montreal. via Ottawa, TO Lake
Huron, at Algoma, and as the local traffic
through this section of country will be of
little importance, great efforts are being made
TO open up large through traffic between
Western points and Montreal and New Eng
land Besides lines of frst-class steamers
running between Algoma and Port Arthur,
the Lake Superior terminus of the Canadian
Pacific, other lines are to ply between Algoma
and Duluth, Milwaukee and Chicago. Next
week the Canadian Pacific Company will
ratify leases of 400 miles of railroad, whereby
it will open up in the early Spring new
route from Montreal, via Toronto, to st.
Thomas, upon the Canada Southern, and via
that road all Western points will be reached
by route open all the year round, and the
Grand Trunk will find an active competitor in
its own immediate territory. These two new
routes of the Canadian Pacific will become
important factors in the through traffic be-
tween the West and East-more so than is
generally acknowledged.
The Ogdensburg & Lake Champlain, encour-
aged by the experiment it has been making in
the direction of employing steamers in trans
porting grain, etc., from the West via the
Welland Canal, proposes to greatly increase its
facilities in this direction next year, thus
practically furnishing a new through route,
part water and part rail.
Another new factor OF importance in the
trunk line traffic will be that of the opening of
the West Shore & Buffalo the first of the
coming year. AS 1t has bsen constructed
especially with reference to handling freight
cheaply, the old roads will undoubtedly find
sharp competition in this new rosd.
The Grand Trunk.
The London Bullionist of October q, report
ing in full the speech of President Tyler to
the Grand Trunk stockholders, makes him
say: "Other available connections with New
York are opening up to us. There is the Della
ware, Lackswanna & Western, and there is
another line that will be better than the New
York Central between Buffalo and New York,
with which the Grand Trunk is on friendly
terms and with which it is about to enter into
an agreement" This is regarded as significant
in connection with General Manager Hick-
Shore road.
The Canadian Pacific.
A special from Montreal says that mini
mum guarantee of three per cent on the
Canadian Pacific has been signed by the De-
minion authorities.
Minor Notes.
The Portland & Rochester is filling in solid
the mill pond between Portland and Deering.
Commencing to-day, the Boston & Maine
train leaving Portland ct 100 p. m. will stop
regularly at Old Orchard Beach.
