Ice Trust takes Boston Ice Company under control
The Ice Trust or American Ice Company has acquired the Boston Ice Company in a deal reportedly exceeding two million dollars. Boston officials say the wholesale ice price may drop while retail remains largely unchanged, with Maine and Kennebec River supply expected. Boston Ice remains a close corporation with long established dividends, and Boston’s market scope now centers on the Ice Trust.
