PROVIDENCE. 



The Market. 



Althougli tlic usual suniiiKT cessation 

 in business Ijegan a week ago, last week 

 showed little of it because of several 

 large funerals that gave tlie majority 

 of the downtown stores a good business. 

 Among the notable funerals of the week 

 ■was that of the lit. Rev. William N. 

 Mc\"ickar, Bishoj) of the Episcopal 

 Diocese of Khode Islandj for which 

 there was a large nui7iber of fine floral 

 pieces well distributed among the deal- 

 ers. 



Prices followed the normal standard 

 for the season, Killarnoy, My Maryland, 

 Bride, Richmond and Bridesmaid be- 

 ing quoted at $S per hundred for firsts, 

 .$.5 to .$() ])er hundred for seconds, .$1 to 

 $3 per hundred for thirds; carnations, 

 $2 per hundred for firsts, down to 50 

 cents; sweet peas, 35 cents to 75 cents 

 per hundred; cut ferns, $1.50.
