BETTER TONE IN TRADE. The market shows a very much bet- ter tone than it did a week ago. An active demand for most lines causes h;i>iid clearances. It is now not an un- usual thing when calling up the whole- sale houses late in the afternoon to hear the words nothing but Paper Whites until morning or in other places nothing till evening. The de- mand while larger than a week ago is not so much larger as to be a real brisk demand. The supply has short- ened .somewhat and is now more equal to the demand than it was for a fort- night. The rose supply has shortened very considerably and as a result this? How'is an- cleaning up at sight. Even white is taken up regularly. More Pink Killarney might at the time of this writing be used. The same is true of red and American Beauties. Carnations with the exception of whites are again selling nicely. Enchantress especially, is cleaning up well. With a few exceptions the local retailers are not making any strenuous efforts to create a large demand for colored carnations for McKinley day. Most of them seem content to allow'the day to follow the even tenor of its way. Both giganteum and callas are prov- ing very good property. Sweet peas are selling very well and more might easily be used if the present demand keeps up. On the day of this writ- ing one house reported that thev might easily have sold ten thousand more had they been forthcoming. Vi
