Warm Weather Has Knocked Bot
tom Out Of Market.

The warm weather and the arrival OF
fresh fish in plenty have knocked the bot
tom out of the oyster market. and this
morning the bivalves could be bought as
low as 50 cents a bushel and the best
stock on the market could be had at 60
cents a bushel. Aboard the eight or ten
vessels at the 18th street wharf there are
Pocomokes and other bay oysters, and it
ia estimated there are about $500 bushels
in all aboard the vessels. The demand is
very light, and vessels are leaving here
with oysters still aboard for the Potomac
beds to replant them.
The sloop Enola, which arrived here
early in the week, found dull market,
and, without opening the matches OF his
vessel, the master hotsted sail and started
for Baltimore, where he believes he Will
find better conditions prevailing. Should
the warm weather continue 1t is thought
that the oyster season will be closed a
couple Of weeks ahead Of time. CLANS are
now being brought here by vessels from
the eastern shore Of Chesapeake bay. and
are selling at from 70 to 50 cents hun

Prices in the wholesale Ash market have
taken a slump In the last three or four
days and fish could be bought this morn
ing at considerably lower prices than dur
ting the latter part of last week. Roe shad
are selling at from 80 to 35 cents each
while bucks can be bought for is cents
each. Herring are rather firm in price
and are selling about 60 cents hundred
