| stock, makes a grand total of SOL ,S15.
Mr.. Emmons, in speaking of this last
sale, said that the purchasers had every
reason TO be satisfied with their bargains,
for he believed that if the property had
been included in the Mclaughlin sale the
| total amount realized would certainly
have been increased by at least ten per
cent. He further said that bidders have
become disguised with the numerous
mock auctions that have taken place in
Jersey City, and now have little faith in
the genuineness of sales. He said that his
firms were resolved to have nothing to dc
with the sale of any property except upon
a distinct understanding with the owner
that it should be sold to the highest bid.
