NEW SUBDIVISIONS.
There are butt few subdivisions made for the
purpose Of placing property on the market these
days. Since the beginning OF the month one
only has been filed for record, viz Subdivision
of Lots ~ and 50 of Thomas sttnson's Sub
division OF Block 81 in the E. 4 Of 5: W.A Sec:
7, SO, II. situated at tho northwest corner OF
Hovne and West Washington strceta, making
two lots fronting east on HoTne fU: stfset ana
ton street There is perhaps nothing SO
significant OF the dul1ncss that pervadcs the
market as the scarcity Of new p1ats flied for
record. For the corresponding. period last
year there were e. SIX bona hde new SUB
1873 the same number, and ten in 1872.
Demand must have fallen to the lowest possible
point when owners are lndlsposed to go to the
expense OF subdividing the many blocks even
within the city limits, which are inviting i'm
burban territory tn its pri1neval uakedness, with
out fear OF being reused by importunate buyers.
