work on Tower Hall is progressing so 

 rapidly that his company will probably 

 take possession oefore New Year's. It 

 is planned to run both stores, for a time, 

 at least. 



Charles Henry Fox erected a stand in 

 front of The Sign of the Rose for the 

 founder's week parades. 



Last week, under the heading "What 

 Philadelphia Can Do, ' ' it was steted that 

 W. E. McKissick sent 5,000 American 

 Beauty roses and some peas in one order 

 out of this city. It should have read 

 teas, meaning roses. 



Smith, Lineaweaver & Co. report that 

 egg and broken coal are selling below 

 circular prices. The high prices and ac- 

 tivity in pea coal continues. Other 

 grades unchanged. 



H. Bayersdorf er & Co. have their build- 

 ing handsomely decorated for founder's 

 week. Phil. 



The S. S. Pennock-Meehan Co. has just 

 issued its first catalogue, listing a large 

 line of supplies, in addition to ribbons, 

 cut flowers and plants. 



BOSTON. 



The Market 



At last some slight betterment in mar- 

 ket conditions is noticeable. There is 

 a perceptible falling off in supplies of 

 outdoor flowers, killing frost on the morn- 

 ing of October 3 finishing tender plants 

 in many places. Roses are still selling 

 abnormally low for the season. Beau- 

 ties clean out well, but most other va- 

 rieties are sluggish. With street fakers 

 offering nice Brides and Maids at 10 

 cents per dozen, an idea of prevailing 

 prices can be formed. Killarney is com- 

 ing of good quality and Richmond also 

 is improving in size and length of stem. 

 Carnations are selling only moderately 

 well, but should improve now that the 

 aster avalanche is nearing its end. The 

 violets seen are mostly singleybut are 

 ii;ot in much demand yet. Chrysanthe- 

 mums are chiefly Golden Glow, Monro- 

 via and Marquis de Montmort. Polly 

 Rose and Glory of Pacific also appeared 

 this week from several growers. These 

 sell fairly well, better than the mid- 

 season sorts are likely to a month hence.

Gladioli are poor and nearing the end. 

 The frost has put most of the dahlias 

 out of . the running and the sweet peas 

 left are poor. .For candytuft, demand 

 is slow, and the. s^ime is true of cosmos 

 and tuberoses. Lilies are not plentiful 

 and valley is in fair request. 



Pot plant trade is slowly picking up, 

 but still leaves much to be desired. For 

 green stock there is a fairly steady 

 call.
