PROVIDENCE. 



The MArket. 



Washington's birthday brought a 

 heavy demand for cut flowers and deco- 

 rations. Clouds prevailed during the 

 week and somewhat checked the sup- 

 ply, roses continuing to be short in this 

 market. Carnations are in larger sup- 

 ply than during previous weeks and the 

 receipts of bulbous stock are heavier.

 has entered suit in the Superior court 

 against Charles iLapham, of Pawtucket,

 them. According to Mr. Chambers, the 

 partnership was formed October 1, 1914,

 Mr. Chambers was entitled to $3,500.
