The MackereI Situation

is the chief attraction. Buyers are beginning
to realize that there is likely to be a very
light supply of mackerel this year, and that
prices must soon materially advance. YES
sells are returning from the North Bay with
good fares, but the season is now more than
half over, and the catch to date is a mere
trifie compared with the total at this time
last year. According to the Boston Fish
Bureaus report there is now deficiency of
1851 barrels, the total quantity landed by
the New England fleet this year being only
1857 barrels against 172,068 barrels year
ago. Under the most favorable circumstan-
ces the bay feet cannot land much over 100,-
600 barrels more this year, which would
bring the total catch up to little more than
one-third of last year, and not much more
than one-fourth of the catch of 1884 This
estimate is based on the supposition that the
shore catch is a failure, as is generally con-
coded. If any large schools of macBerel
should strike in along our coast the situation
would be changed, but no such good fortune
is expected. Under these circumstances no.
body will be surprised to hear that prices
are advancing.
