PENOBSCOI ICE OPERATIONS.
Another Setback by Mondays Storm and All
Work Suspended.

Ice operators on the Penobscot and
kenduskeag We're given another set
back by the storm on Monday; it is
not thought that the freeze will be
damaged beyond the possible loss of
an inch or two. but the delay is Of
great Inconvenience to the crews
Getchell Bros. the firm which supplies
Brewer. We're to have commenced cut
ting. on Monday. but on account of the
heavy rain they may not begin before
Wednesday, although if the weather
permits. they will try to start in on
Tuesday.
The Rollins houses are about three
fourths filed. 50 that there will not be
much more than 5000 tons to be har-
vested when cutting is resumed.
The Mutual Ice Go. will probably be-
gin operations on its fields near East
Hampden within a few days unless the
thaw has cut off couple of inches or
so. in which case they will wait until
ii thickens up to IA or Il inches.
Several other concerns are keeping
their fields clear and in a condition 50
that operations may be commenced on
short notice if the Hudson crop proves
to be the failure that is now threaten
ed. The condition of the Penobscot ice
will depend much upon the weather
within the next day or two. If it turns
cold again. there will be no trouble.
but if the thaw continues there is some
danger Of the crop being damaged.
Up to the present time the ice has
been of excellent quality. in fact the
icemcn say that seldom has a better
freeze been obtained.

both suspended operation. on Monday;
the crews of the fomcr concern have
made good progress. while the new
