OYSTER SEASON NOW ON;
RIVER STOCK ARRIVES
About 200 Bushels Brought Here BY
chooner-Other Vessels Ex-
pected Soon.

Oysters from the private beds along
the lower Potomac arrived promptly
today, when, according to the popular
idea, the oyster-eating season should
start. The vessel to arrive was the
schooner Lottie Thomas, Capt. Jim
Bailey, which brought about 200 bush
els of good Potomac stock. Usually, at
this season of the year, oysters are
generally very thin, and it requires
several days Of good frosty weather to
make the water cold before they fat
ten up to any extent
The dealers at the 18th street wharf
market expect oyster-laden vessels to
arrive with frequency between this and
the middle of the month. After that
time they will come into port daily, as
the vessels can then obtain cargoes
from the tongers Until after the
opening of the dredging season in Oc-
tober the carsoes brought will be small
for the reason that the tongers cannot
gather many oysters, and, because there
is danger of hot spell coming and
causing the oysters to spoil before they
can be sold.
The schooner S. c. Colbourn, Capt.
Herbert, Is reported due here, and her
arrival is looked for at any time. and
there are other vessels down river fter
oysters that may arrive this afternoon
or tomorrow.
