OLD CROP ON HAND.
Many Tons of Kennebec lee Left over
From Last Season.

Gardiner, November 14.-The Toe ship
ping business of the Kennebec river Is
practically over for this year. Not a vss-
sci is loading on the river at the present
time, although one may be expectedsto
arrive and load q cargo before the close
of navigation. The seasons shipments
have not come up to the expected figures
and q large amount Of ice is to be car
ried over, which is not en- ,ouraging to
the farmers and those who live in touch
with the river and who for years have to
a certain extent, depended on the Toe har-
vest for their winters work. The pros
poets are not favorable to the American
Ice company for rebuilding the houses
which were burned early In thesseason,
unless there ehould be a mild winter
and the crop OF the Hudson river proves
a failure. This amount of Ice on hand at
the opening of the season was 9l3, 600 tons,
OF this 10000 tons were ruined by fire,
leaving a balance Of marketable icelof
SAB. 600 tons. Today there are 493, 900 tons
in the different houses on the river, show
ing that only 850.0o0 tons have been
shipped during the entire season. There
are IL houses on the river from which
no ice has been shipped. Ten houses are
partially full and five entirely empty
so that IL is readily seen that not half OF
the kennebec ice crop found a market
the past season and that but q small part
OF the capacity of the river Is in condi-
ticn to receive next winters harvest.

ARE STILL AFLoAT.

Scattered along almost the entire coast
of Alaska are long, low, rough buildings
on shakey piles, salmon canneries. In
most cases the wild and barren wilder
ness grudgingly allows but a strip OF
beach barely wide enough for the build
ings and the rougher shaoks In which the
operatives live for time.
The Alaskan coast is something like
that OF Maine with many islands, inlets
and bays These are alive with salmon
and reddish. Big course fish when COM
pared with the Penobscot article but red
OF flesh and nice to look at and eat by
those who know nothing better.
A score or more of syndioates operate
these canneries In the season but the ex-
igincies of the business require that they
bring their employees with them for where
the salmon are most plentiful they are
no Inhabitants except few lazy, half
civilized Indians. The canning compa-
MES for the INST part have headquarters
at San Francisco. Here In this early
the canneries Some own and some char
ter godo sized craft for they must carry
from 200 to 400 people. including the Chi
nese who make tbs cans and pack the
fish ms well as the fishermen, engineers
for the seine steamers, and supplies OF
all kinds,
And this Is what the solid old Maine
ship the LlewelIyn j. Morse has come to.
For few months she Is tied up nc San
Francisco, then with a miscellaneous
cargo she heads far TO the northward for
Chiknik Bay, where all summer, high
and light. she swings at her moorings in

RELIGIOUS DECADENCE.
The Spiritual state of New England
Discussed.

Boston, November 14.-The secretaries
OF the State Congregational Home Mis-
sionary societies, In each of the states Of
New England, were In session yesterday
and today, considering whether there ID
an over supply of ministers, and whether
there is any real decay in the religion
life OF New England.
Secretary Hillman Of Concord, N, II
secretary Of the New Hampshire Home
Missionary socisty, said that he did not
believe that religious decadence had oc-
Cured, either in the last few years or In
the last 80 years. There are communities
in New Hampshire where large numbers
do not attend church, but there had been
no decadence because 3he Conditions were
not new, but historic. More congrega-
lions In New Hampshire have come to
self support during the last decade
than during the previous decade. and
the additions to the churches by profess
sion and by letter have bean greater,
Notwithstanding the losses by emigration.
Secretary Joshua Colt OF the Massachu-
sets Home Missionary society, stated
that tners had been no decadence In
MASSACHUSETTS,.
Secretary Lyon of Rhode Island, said
that more religious work was done than
formerly, notwithstanding the seeming
evidence to the contrary during the sum
IneI months.
Secretary Harbutt of the Maine socie-
ty, said that there are more people in
Maine who are sloyal to religious prin
ciples than ever before.
Secretary Ives of Connecticut affirmed
that conditions In Connecticut were a
duplication of those in New Hampshire,
as stated by Secretary HIIlman, and
that the number OF churches and the In
crease OF church membership have more
than kept pacs with It's larger increase
in population than the increase OF popu-
lation in New Hampshire.

waters OF thszChilkoot river. In the tall
when the season Is over. she Is locked,
and case upon cass and ton upon toni OF
the canned salmon are stored away In
her spacious hold, the door and windows
Of the cannerles are nailed up, the boats
housed and with the lass man on board

(. Her skipper probably never heard Of
Llevvellyn j. Morse OF Bangor or Bath,
or the Penobscot river but the craft
considered a pretty good ship yet. The
Chlknik bay Packing company who now
own her put down her value as 80, 600.
But the Lleweilyn p. Morse Is not the
only Maine built craft that is lodging
the coal barge fate up towards the
Behring sea. Ihe bark Nicholas Thayer
built &C Thomaston in 1868 carries the
supplies OF the Al aska Salmon Packing
and Fur company to Loring on Nanai3ay
and has as consort the bark Electric
built at Boston in the same year.
. When the ship George Skoineld, lSo
tons, was built far up the Kennebec at
brunswick, thirty years ago the Bowdoin
class prophet did not foretell that the
a beautiful craft TO which he alluded by
way of very pretty ana convenient
would ever be freighting Chinese laborers
mp tine Pacific coast but that Is what the
Glacier Packing com pany, who can
salmon at Point Highfie1d, Mrangelf is-
land, use the one time pride OF the Ken
nebec for. And there are still others.
Inc ship Invincible, built at Bath In 1873
runs TO Pyramid Harbor, Philkoot inlet;
the bark Prussia, Hath built In 1868, goes
to Kadiak island for the Arctic Packing
company, also the ship Santa Clara, built
at Bath In 1875, and the st. Nicholas,

Several large ships and harks built In
Massachusetts help make up consi tersble
fleet which head northward for salmon
every spring. But for proud Yankee
ship TO carry Cinnamon, Loaf all summer
ana then load up with imitation PenoD-
SCOT salmon, seems very much too bad.
