STATE ICE DEALERS MEET.

Tenth Annual Session of the Associa-
 tion Held at New Haven House Yes terday.
 The Connecticut Ice Dealers associa-
 ton. yesterday held it's tenth annual
 meeting at the New Haven house,
 about seventy members being present
 from various parts of Connecticut,
 from Massachusetts and some from
 Rhode Island, among them being
 Messrs. Taintor of Hartford, Smith of New Hartford, Bristol of Meriden, Vail of Waterbury, Bellnap of Ansonia, Beach and DeForrest of Bridgeport,
 Raymond of South Norwalk, White of Worcester, Mass, Doughton of Spring. field, Bently of New London, Clifford of Hudson, N. r., Perry of New Lon- don and Nash of Westport, besides
 nearly all the New Haven dealers. The following officers for the ensuing year
 were elected: President, E. A. Upson,
 Bridgeport; vice president, George
 French, New Haven; secretary, w. R. 1 CAi 1NCW IJollSOll, 1CCl
 Charter of Hartford.
 The following new members of the
 association were elected: E. O. Dough- ton, E. c. Beyer, Charles Flagg,
 Springfield; Fred c. Lum, Arthur L. Main, Charles w. Scranton, New Ha-
 ven; Charles B. Everett, Waterbury;
 Cleander Allen, Hartford; B. l.. Bishop,
 Meriden; H. w. Cole, Albany.
 The gentlemen present from various sections reported on the crop harvest ed this season in their localities and
 these reports showed that although the quantity harvested will not quite fill up the storage capacity there will be
 no shortage and the crop is sufficient to supply all demands. The quality while fair will not be of the best in general, owing to the fact that many dealers began harvesting early, fearing that the winter would be an open one. Some of the dealers about the state | protested against New Haven dealers sending ice to their places and selling it at $1.60 per ton, a price lower than the usual one
 Superintendent Sanford of the New Haven Ice company stated that the crop udTVeSC6Q IdSC WlnLeT was SOOQ
 and the quality was up to the stan- dard. He said that 1t was a fact that ice harvested in New Haven and vicin- | ity had been sold last year to out-of- I town parties. He offered to furnish a map to out-of- town dealers if they de- sired local trade. Meriden reported the 1 harvest to be about the average; New London has a good supply, but a short age is anticipated; Arsonia has the us- ual supply, but it's sister city is l short and may have to purchase. The | houses of the dealers in Bridgeport are | not full, but they have an artificial l plant in operation there and the people 1 will not suffer; Norwalk dealers report | a shortage of from 5000 to 10000 tons; | Stamford is short 2,000 tons. The crop | that has been harvested by the dealers I in this city is estimated at 100000 tons. No attempt was made to regulate a scale of prices as opposition was ex- pressed to any plan of dictation regard 1 ing the rates in different cities, the dealers themselves preferring to ar range the scale to suit the conditions.
