Weeks Lumber Receipts
Yesterday was one OF the quietest
days in one OF the local shipping
worlds busiest weeks. AS the result
OF the heavy arrivals OF lumber the
dockage facilities Of the port viii be
taxed TO their utmost for some time
TO come. Lumber receipts yesterday
by sea amounted TO 1.11O.0O0 feet,
bringing the total receipts by sea for
the week 10 35,21l.000 feet. or this
amount $4,000 feet originated in the
forests Of the State Receipts by sea
from oregon and Washington since
last Monday total 1862. 600 feet.
Receipts OF coal also were unusually
heavy. the regular coastwise cargOes
being augmented by the arrival OF sew
eral big tramps from Australia The
British tramp steamer Bramley which
arrived yesterday from Newcastle. Aus
tralia. brought 4ll9 tons Of coal and
1850 tons Of coke. making the week S
receipts Of coal 22s23 tons. In spite
OF this heavy addition to the local sup
ply the dealers say that the demand
is still heavier than can be filled.
Just what the demand for lumber in
the work OF reconstructing the build
ings OF this city means to the coast
wise trade is best illustrated by the
case OF the steam schooner J. B. Stet-
son. This vessel has had more than
her share Of mishaps. all Involving
more or less expense, but a dividend
declared the other day gives to her
shareholders a total profit for the year
OF 100 per cent on their investment.
