Lent opens this year for the fish trade
with the market for fresh stock upset
by the storm, and supplies on hand have
been exceedingly light throughout the
week.
There We're 20 cargoes in from mis-
cellaneous grounds, and the aggregate
amount of fresh fish landed was only
3S8,800 pounds. At Gloucester there
were 10 arrivals, with 100000 pounds of
fresh mixed fish. One vessel also came
in at Gloucester from the banks with
fresh halibut to the amount Of 5000
pounds.
There were four cars Of halibut in
from the Pacific coast this week. and
they brought 10@11c per pound.
On account of the slim receipts, prices
have ruled high on cod and haddocR
most of the week. The top was reached
on Thursday, when as high as 81 cents
per pound was paid for some offerings.
The demand has been diverted in g
measure, therefore, to cured stock. Sup
plies of nearly all the staple goods are
diminished in volume, and the market Is
quite firm in consequence.
The mackerel hunters are beginning
