BUSINESS EMBABBASSMENTS. 



New York, N. Y.— Chas. E. Jaeger, 

 florist at 147 West 127th street, filed 

 a petition in bankruptcy May 9, with 

 liabilities $3,018 and assets consisting 

 of an interest in fifty-eight acres of 

 land at Bayport, L. I., worth $2,000, 

 which is under foreclosure of a mort- 

 gage of $2,000. 



Frankfort, Ky.— Louis Singer filed a 

 deed of assignment May 7, to D. L. 

 Hazelrigg. It is said his assets are con- 

 siderably in excess of his debts, but 

 some of his creditors were pressing him 

 at a time when he had no ready money. 

 His assets are estimated at something 

 like $6,000, while his debts amount to 

 $3,500. An effort will be made to have 

 the creditors agree to let Mr. Singer 

 retain the management of the business 

 and sell out the stock on hand. It is 

 believed that if this is done he will be 

 able to pay all his debts and have 

 some little left over, whereas, if the 

 plants are put up at public auction and 

 sold they would bring but a small sum. 



NEW YOKE. 



The Market. 



The almost constant rainfall last week 

 bad a depressing effect on the market, 

 and Mothers ' day proved but a tem- 

 porary relief. Apart from an unusual 

 demand for white carnations, the supply 

 in the general list was well in advance 



X. *°y possible requirements. The 

 wholesalers drew attention to Mothers' 

 day by placards in the windows and the 

 retailers gave the public similar remind- 

 ers, so that the day was more generally 

 observed than heretofore, in spite of 

 the unfavorable weather. Evidently it 

 has come to stay. 



For the best grade of American Beau- 

 ties 25 cents continues top, and this 

 ngure is obtainable only for the se- 

 lected. The tendency of all roses is 

 downward. There is an enormous sup-
