Flower Market Reports 



(Continued from page S47) 



Decoration Day busi- 

 ST. LOUIS ness this year fell oft 



somewhat. From re- 

 ports gathered from some of the lead- 

 ing florists throughout the city, there 

 was not the same feeling displayed 

 as in former years, and we can attri- 

 bute it only to the fact that too many 

 out-door flowers were in this year, as 

 the displays at the cemeteries plainly 

 showed. The wholesalers had great 

 piles of stock all week long and prices 

 did not change any except only on 

 extra quality stock and there was 

 very little of this to be had. as the 

 extremely hot weather hurt the qual- 

 ity in roses, carnations and sweet 

 peas. Cape jasmines and gladioli 

 were fine, so were peonies; all these 

 were in abundance. A great deal of 

 cheap out-door truck was sent in 

 which were sold in baskets for grave 

 decorations.

FIRES. 



A three-story wooden and Iron-cov- 

 eied storehouse at A. H. Hews & Co.'s 

 pottery, North Cambridge, Mass., was 

 gutted by a menacing three-alarm fire 

 early Monday morning, June 1. Frank 

 Fellows, a night watchman, discovered 

 the fire shortly after 2.15 A. M. and 

 sent in an alarm. When the firemen 

 arrived the entire building was in 

 flames and a third alarm was given. 

 Several dwellings were threatened and 

 the occupants made a hasty exit, car- 

 rying their children. The loss is es- 

 timated at $8,000. 



Arlington. Mass. — The greenhouse 

 of John Lyons on Brooks avenue was

Tarrytown, N. Y. — Informed that the 

 I. W, W, and other free speech advo- 

 cates from New York planned to stage 

 a demonstration on June 3, "Rocke- 

 feller's town" was active early to meet 

 the threatened invasion. 



Scores of special constables, clubbed 

 and armed, were on duty ready for an 

 instant call, every road into the town 

 was watched and — crowning device — 

 the whole of Fountain Square, the 

 town's forum, was covered with fresh 

 asphalt. 



"There will be no free speech meet- 

 ing, or any other kind of meeting in 

 the square today." Village President 

 Pierson said. "If any gathering is at- 

 tempted we'll break it up with clubs 

 and if that doesn't do we'll turn on 

 the fire hose. Cold water. I guess, 

 win bring calm."
