LOSS TO BRITISH FLORISTS.
Grew Roses by the Thousand for the
Coronation.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
How great will be the loss Of thousands
who had expected to reap fortunes during
the coronation ceremonies in London it has
been impossible to estimate. Here is one
item alone in which the losses are prac-
tically irreparable: In anticipation of an
enormous demand for roses-the coronation
hower-the florists of England and the con-
tinent laid out large tracts of land with
rose bushes. planning it that flowers
would be ready in these last days of June.
1t was estimated that the kings subjects
would wear and use for decorations at
least $4,000. 900 red roses alone and would
be willing to pay from cents to cents
apiece for them. This was a moderate esti-
was feared that the supply would not equal
the demand. The English retail florists
poured in orders for thousands of blooms
upon the gardeners. These fortunes in
prospect seemed to be very close at hand
for the price of roses went steadily up in
of a scarcity.
Now 1t is all at an end. Instead of great
profits there viii be great losses. No one
wants red roses now. The florists who or
dered and have literally tons of flowers
coming from the continent which they Will
be unable TO use, will bear the loss in
part But most Of il will fall upon the
growers in whose Offices the notices Of
are piled high.
The larger part of the rose crop will die
upon the bushes. and the gardeners will
be out of pocket the money they have spent
on land, on plants and on cultivation in an
ticipation of the profits which the sudden

BY comparison with a sample Of the dust
elected in 1872 obtained from the Barbados
laboratory museum IL was shown that n
striking difference existed. The dust Of
1912 was much finer and composed almost
wholly of volcanic glass. The finding Of
larger particles of mineral matter at Bar
bados, ninety miles from Martinique is
significant of the violence of the later ex-
plosion and of the prodigious height TO
which the elected material must have been
lifted
1t is evident from the composition Of the
dust that it is nearly entirely deficient in
fertilizing value.

TALKS ON
IRISH AFFAIRS
THE GREAT IRISH
LEADER AND MEMBER OF PAR
LAMENT DISCUSS CONDITIONS.

NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-John e. Red
mond, the Irish leader and member OF
Parliament from Waterford, and his
wife and son, sailed for home early to-
day on the White Star steamer Celtic.
John Dillon and Michael Davitt, who
accompanied him to this country, will
remain here until Christmas.
Mr.. Redmond said that he had had
pleasant visit and that he came over to
attend the convention of the Irish
League of America held in Boston Oc-
tober 20 and 81 He had remained over
at the solicitation of his friends TO at
tend the Carnegie Hall meeting, and
another held in Philadelphia.
THE League in convention at Bos-
ton decided to raise at once a fund of
100000" he said, and of this amount
$4,000 had already been subscribed
The entire amount, 1t is expected, Will
be collected before Christmas.
This fund will be used in Ireland.
1T will be turned over to the national
defense fund and to be used to protect
the tenants from the landlords.
The trouble is the old one which has
been going on for hundreds of years.
1t is the old story of oppression of the
Irish. 1t might be called our great
strike between the tillers and the
idiluON lGIot OF lle lOlleTS ana the lanQ-
lords. This strike, however, is differ
ent from your coal strike, for we have
no one to step in and demand a settle
ment along just lines. The weight of
the government in Ireland is always
thrown in with the landlords.
THE landlords recently raised a fund
of a quarter of a million of dollars, and
1t is in answer TO this fund that we
have raised the fund here. The money
will be used for the good of the ten
ants. 1t will be used first of all 10 buy
land, then for legal expenses; to help
those who are left destitute by the ac-
tlons of the landlords; to help editors
who have had the courage of their coa-
victions, who stood ready to make any
sacrifices, and who have been ruined
by the seizure of their plants through
the working of the damnable coercion
law; and for other expenses of the
fund"
