their stock comes from New Castle, Ind., 

 by pxpress. For several days the cut 

 went to another market but now they 

 get along without much trouble by car- 

 rying the stock away from the depot in 

 bundles, the regular procedure with all 

 houses. 



Bassett & Washburn have done all 

 their shipping from Hinsdale, the Bur- 

 lington making connections one way or 

 another for about all points, as the ex- 

 press companies can still make transfers 

 from one road to another at the Union 

 depot. 



Vaughan & Sperry get in most of their 

 stock by express and have had troubles, 

 for they could not get boxes out of the 

 depots. In some cases they repacked the 

 stock in a telescope valise and got it out 

 that way. 



E. E. Keser says he thinks $500 worth 

 of stock was lost in the mass of incom- 

 ing express matter which quickly ac- 

 cumulated at the depots. Nearly every 

 house had one or two consignments 

 which either were not found at all, or 

 had spoiled through delay. 



At E. H. Huitt's they are proud of the 

 record of having got ofif every ship- 

 ment the day the strike was called, but 

 they smile when they think of the round- 

 about way they had to route some of 

 them. 



Probably refceipts are very nearly nor- 

 mal now except that outdoor stock, such 

 as lilac, etc., is shut out as being too 

 bulky to handle. 



Weiland & Eisch have been carting 

 their stock in from Evanston. Pochl- 

 mann Bros. Co. has two teams making 

 daily trips to town from Morton Grove, 

 thirteen miles. 



For a couple of days Wietor Bros, and 

 Peter Reinberg packed considerable stock 

 at the greenhouses and shipped from 

 Eavenswood and other neighboring ex- 

 press offices. 



One South Water street dealer under- 

 took to move a lot of strawberries 

 marked "funeral flowers" and provoked a 

 riot. 



Variooi Notes. 



A report from Carbondale, 111., is to 

 the effect that a severe hail storm passed 



STRIKE NOT 



interfering witli us in the least. 

 Plenty stock and all orders being 

 filled with our usual promptness.

It is reported that John Lambros has 

 sold out to his partner. The Mangel

 charge of J. G. Johnson, Swan having 

 retired. 



Lubliner &, Trinz, after a month in the 

 old Carson, Pirie, Scott & Co. store at 

 State and Washington streets at $600 a 

 month rent, have secured an extension of 

 the lease. They handle an immense 

 amount of stock. The place is thronged 

 all day, and sales are made from one 

 rose at 2 cents to a dozen at $4. Trinz 

 says its a poor day when we don't do 

 over $100 and "we've got the Greeks 

 beat to a standstill ! ' '
