In the past few weeks there has been
an advance Of about so cents per M IN
the spruce lumber, and, as is usual in
the fall months, the demand has in
creased somewhat. Freights have also
recovered part of the decline of last
summer, the prevailing rates being
s1.62 to Boston $1.s7 to the Sound and
$2.12 to New York 1t Is said that IN
one or two cases $225 has been paid to
New York. The New York rate for
small vessels has been considerably
affected this year by the unusually
large number of big carriers taking
deckloads of lumber.-Bangor News
