An Extraordinary Sale by Kayanagh on
Friday-A Few Building Projects-The
Transactions of the Past Week.

The real estate market during the past
week has been quiet and the sales have
been limited to S12s,5 500. This is the
small est weeks business We have had for
very long time. Prices, however, have
not weak ened. On the contrary they are
stronger than ever and are daily growing
stronger and frmer. as will be seen by
any one who will consider
the sale made yesterday By
Mr.. Kavanagh, which will be found below.
Though the Gales do not multiply, but, on
the ontrary appear to decrease, there is
nothing anywhere to indicate any modera
ton in prices.
KAvANAGHs LATE SALE.
One of the most remarkable sales of the
season was the auction sale Of block % of
Stinson, Brown & Ramsey's addition, on
Friday afternoon, under the supervision Of
p. 7. Kavanagh, the well-known auctioneer.
1t is we'll established fact that this gen.
tleman advertises nothing at auction I'M
less he has the assurance from the owner
that the same is to be sold below the
market value. AS natural consequence
the disagreeable weather did not deter
large concourse of buyers from attend
ing the sale. The bidding was eager and
the prices obtained show decided healthy
feeling in st. Paul realty. The following
will give the reader fair idea
of the sale, showing prices
and purchasers names. Lots l and 2,

A number of spectators were on the
ground but we're crowded out IS the list of
buyers show by those who were in search
of homes, and who propose to improve i'm
medistely. Prominent real estate men of
st. Paul look upon the sale, considering
| the lateness OF the season and stripgency
of the money market, as remarkable one,
| while the avidity with which the lots were
taken shows that purchasers of st. Paul
realty far outnumber the sellers.
That there will be more building next
year in st. Paul than during any previous
year in her history is a fact that is as fixed
as anything can be in the affairs of human
beings. Business blocks and tenements
are already contracted for to such an ex-
tent that no question is left as to the truth
of the statement. All our architects are
full of work preparing their plans fol
next season, and every one says he has
twice as much on hand as he bad last sea-
son.
