The Seacoast Packing Co., the sardine
syndicate, is building a fve-story ware
house at Eastport, with all modern con-
veniences-eievators, electric lights, steam

Sea street terminus OF the Washington
County railroad where most of the
freights are loaded each day for the west.
The first floor will be on level with the
doors of freight cars so that cars can be
quickly loaded and unloaded.
The Maine Central railroad for the
year ending June 80, makes an excellent

lions were $5,640,724. a gain OF $591 ,035
from the year before; operating expenses,

A report from the Kennebec says tina
while the American ice company evil
IDENTIFY is shipping all the ice for which
there is any demand, 1t is not keeping up
with the summer average, and 1t is esti-
over to next year. A careful estimate of
the quantity OF ice on the river Oct. !,
shows that OF $4,000 tons harvested
1863, 600 tons only have been shipped.
There are some indications that an OPP
position to the American Ice Co. may
develop. Representatives of operators
have been In Maine looking over locations
on which to erect new buildings. At the
same time a report is heard that the
American Ice Co., in the near future, will
esta blish a dock in Boston which will
give them a new source Of output for
their shipments. The company loads Ice
on the river and places 1t In Boston In
less than twenty hours, making a great
saving not only In the shrinkage during
transportation, but also in the rate of
freight as compared with that to southern
ports. 1t is claimed, moreover, that ice
could be placed in Boston at cost which
would permit competition with the prices
now charged there by the dealers, and
give to the company shipping from here
a good margin OF profit.
