It is now believed that the amount of
shells that will this month be taken out OF
New Haven harbor will reach LOO, 00C
bushels. The revised list of the planters
is as follows: Lancraft Brothers, 100000:
Ludington & Palmer, 10000; S. Chapman
& Co., $4,000; F. Mansfield & Sons,
rs 900; 81. G. Rowe & Co., 1875, 1000; J. E.
Bishop & Co., $4,000; G. D. Parmalee
40 900; J. Ames & Son, 40,009; w. Potte,
130, 1000; Michael Coleman, 10000; Isaac E
Brown, $4,000; B. N. Rowe & Son, %, 900
L. Gum & Co., 1000; Oyster Point deal
ers, from 10000 to 400, 900 bushels. TAX
ing the smaller estimate for Oyster Point
and the aggregate plant is 1895, 900 bush
els. It would be safe to add 60, 900 bushels
for the small dealers, who put down only 6
few thousand bushels each. The grand
total would then foot up just 1 100, 00(
bushels of shells worth at the beds SIS, 900.
The outlook for set is good.
