  The 
  quantity 
  of 
  fish 
  landed 
  at 
  Boston 
  by 
  American 
  fishermen 
  in 
  1S95 
  

   was 
  about 
  7:5,808,000 
  pounds, 
  vahied 
  at 
  $1,340,000. 
  With 
  the 
  exception 
  

   of 
  a 
  few 
  salt 
  mackerel, 
  practically 
  the 
  entire 
  receipts 
  consisted 
  of 
  split 
  

   fresh 
  fish. 
  Comi^ared 
  with 
  1894 
  the 
  foregoing 
  figures 
  represent 
  a 
  de- 
  

   crease 
  in 
  quantity 
  of 
  about 
  13,057,000 
  pounds 
  and 
  in 
  value 
  of 
  $322,000. 
  

   An 
  analysis 
  of 
  the 
  returns 
  shows 
  tliat 
  200 
  fewer 
  fares 
  of 
  fish 
  were 
  

   landed 
  in 
  1805, 
  and 
  that 
  cod, 
  cusk, 
  haddock, 
  hake, 
  pollock, 
  halibut, 
  

   and 
  mackerel 
  were 
  all 
  taken 
  in 
  smaller 
  quantities. 
  About 
  5,000,000 
  

   pounds 
  of 
  the 
  decrease 
  was 
  in 
  the 
  catch 
  on 
  the 
  more 
  eastern 
  grounds.
