nation of this uncertainty.
The war in freight rates, the pros
pect of a soft coal strike, uneasiness
over the condition of winter wheat
and the impending Northern Securi-
ties decision must all be held in mind
to understand the apathy of the mar

MARINE
INTELLIGENCE
Day without an Arrival.

Yesterday was unusually quiet
along the water front, and not an
arrival was reported by Boarding Of
ficer Barrett. The only vessels to sail
were the New York and Baltimore
steamers. 1t is thought March will
be a very quiet month for shipping
as the supply of cotton is about ex-
hausted.

be very quiet month for shipping
as the supply of cotton is about ex-
hausted.
During the last few days, lumber
has been piled up on the wharves.
The demand for the yellow pine has
not been strong, and the result is that
considerable supplies have accumulat-
ed, awaiting shipment to the North
1t is the opinion of the captains of the
schooners that there will be "a decid-
ed increase in the lumber trade, when
the work of rebuilding the burned dis
trict of Baltimore begins. An increase
OF 10 pen cent. in the price has been
made in Virginia and North Carolina
lumber, and this is given as one of
the principal reasons why the greater
part OF the lumber used in Baltimore
will be shipped from this port.
The City of Bluffton, the new steam
err which will run between this point
and Bluffton, was inspected by the
government steamboat inspectors yes
terday. The steamer will begin its
regular trips next Monday, and will
make round trip every day, except
Sunday. The vessel is seventy-five
feet long, and draws five feet of water.
The initial trip was made here in less
than three hours and a half. The
Button is commended by Capt. E. G.
Daniels, formerly of the tug Maud.
Ex-senator Don Cameron's yacht
Alameda. which arrived in port Tues
day night, returned to Beaufort yes
terday afternoon. The Alameda is a
steam yacht and makes frequent trips
to Savannah. Senator Cameron had
q party of friends aboard the yacht,
and they spent few hours yester-
day driving over the city, The vessel
is commanded by Capt. George Will
liams who is we'll known here.
The Imogene twelve ton naphtha
boat owned by Messrs. Wilkins, Nc
Donoush & Co., is now making regu-
lar trips between Savannah and
Beaufort. The Imogene touches at near
by places en- route. The owners of
the Imogene own several stores in
South Carolina, and the boat is used
TO carry supplies. On the return trips
the naphtha brings cotton and country
produce. The naphtha boats are becom-
ing valuable for this sort of work, and
they promise to play an important part
in the river trade. The Imogene makes
a round trip each weak.
