The transfers for the week speak for
throughout.
The largest consideration for any one
transfer during the week is the sale from
Emma B. Bidwell to Col. James II. David
son, which is 160 feet front on Jackson
street by 210 deep, and half block in
age is excellent business property and
would prove good investment if immedi-
ately improved.
During the week gentlemen Of capital
from various towns in the state have been
in the city vieing with capitalists from
abroad to secure the best ba. gains in the
market. Some will buy nothing but bust
ness property in the heart of the city while
others are seeking for broad acres near the
city. The vicinity of Hamline university
and Manchester college are favorite loca-
tions and acres anywhere near to
eagerly sought after. The fact is, every
institution of learning builds up village
or community about 1t which gives the best
society attainable, and in a few years
hsmes near either of these colleges will
command a premium. Hamline is to be re-
built at once and will be open ready for the
fall term and we understand that Macales-
tor college will commence building with
the opening of spring. This will of course
lead to the rapid development of all the
surrounding property. A depot will soon
be put in near the crossing of Summit av-
two of that point can take the cars and
reach the city before parties who
live two miles out from the center.
Men and teams are busily engaged re-
moving the earth from II. Greve's corner
just south of Smith park on Fifth street
and work on the foundation will COM
mence early. All the real estate agents
seem to be occupied, but
THE NEW FIRM
of Fairchild & Davidson are among the
busiest. They cannot get into their
new quarters, 1874 jackson street, until
May 1, and their present rooms seem to be
full all the time. They have listed upon
their books some of the very best bargains
in business property and acres suitable for
plating, that there is in the market.
They have excellent facilities
for finding purchasers and
as fast as sales are made they made new
listments, thus keeping full line of prop
erty, central, suburban and residence on
their books.
BIG THINGS IN PROSPECT.
There are a good many projects devel-
oping which will add to the wealth and
population of this city. Among others,
smelling and reduction works are being
very seriously considered. A gentleman
who has large interests in mines is looking
ne ground over and will investigate tie

kind. Finally undertook it myself, and
l will put it through and open it to the
public next September. also have IN
dertaken considerable building in addition,
all of which hope to complete this year
but as to my building 'big hotel,' shall
not undertake it, and the arcade for next
year is all have now definitely deter
mined upon.
Thanking the Commodore for the inter
view, the reporter took his departure with
the general impression that "smdU no.
tel'' may possibly materialize on the corner
of Robert and Fifth streets next year,
though we do not commit Commodore
Davidson to this enterprise,for he declined
to commit himself. He already owned
seventy five feet front on the corner of
Robert and Fifth which was only separat-
ed from the balance of his property by a
small piece fronting twenty feet on Fifth
street and running back to and forming
part of the Quinby & Halloweu purchase.
He gets that twenty feet from them and
seventy-fiye feet front additional on Rob-
ert, making him $50 feet front on Robert,
$50 feet front on Fifth and 125 feet front
on Fourth, and Col. Da-
wilson by the deeds recorded yesterday
becomes the owner of seventy feet front
on Robert next south of Quinby & Hal
lowell. We auggsst that hotel fronting
220 feet on Robert using the spare rooms
IN the arcade building, might be large
enough to accommodate the overflow of
the Merchants hotel for a year or two.
We have had small diagram prepared
which We print herewith showing the gen.
eral outlines Of the proposed arcade build
ing. 1t is hoped and expected that an
alley will be run from Fourth to Fifth
street in rear of the Jackson street front
age and the proposed alley is shown upon
the accompanying diagram, though the
initiative steps to procure the opening of
such an alley have not yet been taken.
Commodore Davidson expressly denies
any intention of building nam
moth hotel on Robert, but his
plan contemplates something on the
restaurant plan, neat and comfortable,
with all the modern convenienoes for q
small public house. How much frontage
it will occupy and the number of stories
high it will be, he has not yet determined,
and for the present he leaves the balance
of the details to the newspaper reporters.
In the diagram herewith published we have
not had time to work out all the details OF
the hotel, and so leave that for future is

subject at Omaha, Denver and Leadville,
and if from information he is able to
gather it appears theat such works could
be probably operated in st. Paul, he will
initiate a movement for the erection of
such works here within the present year.
Mr.. Fairchild has sold for E. F. Drake,
to Ferdinand Willius, 5Ox1OO feet on
Fourth street, between Robert and Mime
sofa, for $4,000.
Messrs. Greve & Oppenheim have been
selling right and left. During the week
they sold to J. II. Bryant, fifteen lots in
Palace addition, for 5000 each, amounting
to $13,500; also whole block of Deans
addition, containing thirty-six lots, for
different prices, varying from $500 to
1926 Per lot; also twenty-five lots in Sum-
nit Park addition, for from $500 to $500
per lot; also three lots on Nelson avenue
for $4,000 each; one lot in Summit Park,
$4,000, and various other sales, which in
the aggregate amount to not less than
100000.
Other dealers have also made consider
able sales which cannot be named at the
present time as other deals depend upon
them.

Sudden Death at the Merchants.

A man named Charles P. Stillman, of
Zumbrota, Goodhue county, died very sud-
denly at the Merchants shortly before
twelve noon yesterday. StiIlman arrived
at the Merchants Thursday evening last.
He was indisposed at the time, and the
next day after DR.. Murphy was called.
Yesterday morning Stillman was down in
the Office for a short time, and then re-
turned to his room where John Lawless fixed
him comfortably in an easy chair, and left
him. About II o'clock a chambermaid
looked into the room, and seeing Stillman
quiet in the chair, supposed him to be
asleep, but Lawless, going to the room a
little later, found that his sleep was that
of death, supposed to have resulted from
heart disease. Stillman was probably
about thirty five years of age. His father
was one of the pioneer settlers of Galena,
and later was wholesale confectioner of
Chicago. At his death, several years ago,
be left each of his children $175,-
900. Deceased was married, residing
at Zumbrota, where his mother, married
again, also lives. In response to tele-
gram notifying them of the death of the
husband and SOD, they returned answer
that they would reach the city this morning
and take charge of the remains.

those who own property on Robert street,
would like to know what improvements
are contemplated for the Robert street
frontage of block II?
Ans.-Well, 1 am not prepared to say,
for our plans are not sufficiently matured.
Rep.-Well, it has been rumored that
you would build a big hotel on Robert
street in connection with the arcade
Ans-I don't want all the ''big things"
want other citizens of ST. Paul to go to
work and do their share towards building
up this city, and can say most emphatic
ally I lcon't build big hotel. 1 have
thought that small hotel, with modern
conveniences, and not built on too extrava-
giant scale on the corner of Fifth and
Robert might prove paying investment
Rep.-Then you are contemplating
some kind of hotel on Robert street?
Ans.-I can't hardly say that, but have
thought good deal about it. Now don't
commit me- to a hotel, Dig or little, on
Robert street. have only said have
been thinking about it and it may never
eliminate in anything more than "think-
ing"
Rep.-Well, commodore, don't you think
a big hotel would pay in this city?
Ans.-Certainly one is very much need
ed and it ought to be commenced
and built just as quickly
as possible. We expect an immense pleas
ure travel from the South to Minnesota
this season and am, or the packet COM
pany is, building a new and fine passenger
packet to assist the Gem City and the War
Eagle to bring the people from st. Louis
to st. Paul, and to take them back after
their summer vacation, and this city ought
to provide hotel facilities to take care of
them. For two or three seasons past the
summer visitors who have travelled on our
boats have complained bitterly of lack Of
hotel accommodations, and it is getting
worse every year.
Rep-Then why won't you take the mi
tiative in building big hotel commensu
rate with the needs of st. Paul?
Ans.-Simply because can't. I have
got to keep up my steamboat line, which is
Just as important to st. Paul as big no.

The Plat Commission.

Yesterday afternoon on invitation Col.
J. S. Prince, Hon. Alex. Ramsey, Col. Al
len and some others met at the Office of the
city attorney for the purpose of consulting
with the plat commissioners as to the
course of proceeding under the new law.
The meeting was a kind of an informal
one, and variety Of matters were talked
over The new law in regard to the duties
of the plat commission was the principal
subject under consideration. The law
requires that in all plats of
over five acres, one-twentieth of the same,
exclusive of streets, shall be dedicated to
the public for park purposes. The ques-
ton as to wholly evading the law was
brought up. 1t was suggested that If
man had fifty acres that he wanted plated

Of permanently succeeding to the bust
ness of the Western Union.
But II the sma' Ter rival lines do not
succeed In gobbllng up the business OF
the Western Union, and q settlement OF
the strike should be long delayed, 1t Is
sure to arouse the old demand for the es-
tablishment of q telegraph system as a
branch of the Postoffiee Department;
and this demand will be reinforced by
. strong and increasing pressure Of pub
lie opinion.
Public opinion has been found, on
one or two occasions, to be very strong
In this direction, and if once aroused
under such circumstances 1t may sue
coed, particularly If it is found that the
reform in the civil service has the
effect Of removing public employees
nom an overactive participation
in politics, and insuring the ap'
pointment Of All efficient body
Of men. While there are m any other
objections to q government telegraph
system the enlargement OF q field oil
political patronage has generally been
the one most insisted upon by the OBJ
~jectors to this plan.
This latter is neither a remote nor an
insignificant danger to the leading tele'
graph company. 1t Is we'll understood
that the government could duplicate
the plant Of the Western Union at one
fourth the capitalization Of that corpor-
alton, and as it would not be under the
necessity Of paying dividends upon the
investment, there is no doubt that it
could materially reduce the cost OF
sending messages to users of the teie-
graph in all parts Of the country.
In other words, for the government
10 come in as a competitor OF the West
ern Union, means the utter collapse OF
that company. 1t is II of the peril4
that threaten it, and an impatient pub
lie will bring it about unless its de-
mands for an efficient telegraph service
at all points are speedily and fairly met.
