REAL ESTATE.
Moderate Inquiry the Past Week
for Business Property.
Good Demand for Residence Lots All
Through the City.
Active Building on Every Hand But Rents
Scarce and High.

in a very pleasant manner and the bright
warm days that have greeted the real estate
men, transactions have not been as active as
it was expected they would be. Especially ii
| this the case in regard to business property
which is rather slow. There is very con
| siderable demand for lots for homesteads
and dwelling houses generally, but business
property is less in demand than it was ex
pected 1t would be. This is partly attributed
to the fact that lots on the best business
streets of the city are really not in the mar
ket and cannot be purchased, and a
the same time no person that purchases {
business lot, wants to buy one anywhere elst
except on one of the business streets.
The inquiry for residence property is very
active and in this line purchases are very
free indeed, and hundreds of new residences
are springing up in all directions and IL
every part of the city excavations are being
| made for new residences. The same may
also be said of business blocks. These are
going up ON every hand.
A syndicate composed of Albert Scheffer
Samuel Dawson and DR.. Schiffman, have
been picking up good deal of real estate
lately. The last purchase made was that OF
blocks 100 and 10, Dayton's addition, fol
| $4,000
The purchase referred to last week as hay
ing been made of the Nelson Lumber Com
pany of forty acres has fallen through for the
present, at least. Those who were engaged
in making the dicker upon looking over the
ground became satisfied that it did not lie as
favorably as was at or first supposed. The
gentlemen therefore stepped out and the
property is now subject to disposal to other
| parties, provided there are any who want il
at S4S, 900.
The matter of rents Is still a serious one,
and is growing more so every day. AS was
predicted in the GLOBE several weeks ago.
dwelling houses for rent are growing more
and more scarce in the city, and at the
present moment it may be said that there are
practically none for rent tn st. Paul. Now
and then one can be found, but notwith-
standing all the residences that have
been erected during the year, there are no
houses of any account to rent.
Mr.. Timothy Reardon who erected last fall
double residence on the corner of Fifteenth
and Jackson streets, and this spring another
dwelling house on Fifteenth street. is now
engaged making the necessary excavation on
Ninth street, between Robert and jackson
for a large three-story warehouse. This
building will be 50x140 feet of brick and
will be used as an agricultural warehouse.
The location is a very convenient one and is
next west of DR.. Higbee's residence. The
cost of the building will be about $500.
