4 Squirrel Hill Deal and Talk Of Another
Important Railroad G0bble.
THE NEWS AND GOSSIP OF THE CITY

Ira NJ. Burchfeld sold about Is acres, in
cluding the Peoples Insurance Company
property, on Squirrel Hill, near the head OF
Hazelwood avenue, for S3S, 500. The trans
action is supposed to be in the interest OF
the Homestead Railroad.
There was considerable quiet talk in GER
tain quarters yesterday to the effect that
one OF the railroads is negotiating for big
slice of ground to enable it to increase its
facilities for handling its growing traffic.
The amount of money involved is not much
less than that recently invested by the Bal
timore and Ohio at Glenwood. The gentle
man from whom the information was obtained
said the transaction was not far enough along
Tor particulars to be given out.
Homes for the People.
Extensive inquiry among real estate deal
ers, sellers and buyers, shows that the de-
maud for building lots and moderate sized
houses is active and rather OIL the increase.
This is due to the approach of the renting sea-
son. A great many who will change quarters
next April will move into houses of their own
The list of house owners next year will be ma
terially increased.
High-priced houses are rather slow, showing
that this class of improvements has kept
abreast of the demand, if not a little in adj
vance of it, but the avdity with which small
dwellings are picked up demonstrates to a
mathematical certainty that there is shortage
in the supply. 1t is to these that capitalists
and builders should turn their attention. They
should remember that there are people who
cannot afford to live on the fashionable ave-
nues. A brownstone front1s luxury; COM
Portable little home necessity.
Half dozen gentlemen who operate exten-
sively IN real estate met by chance in a Fourth
avenue office yesterday, and discussed the
building outlook for next year. The conclusion
reached was that it would be on larger scale
than ever before. One of them said: II am
cognIzaht of plans for about 400 houses. to be
commenced next spring. Besides, two COM
panies. lately formed, propose putting up
about $50 each. Here are 70O houses that may
be counted upon with considerable confidence.
Other companies and syndicates are talked of,
and some of them will no doubt enter the
field. Individual builders will certainly do
their part. 1t IS safe to say there are LOCO new
houses in sight,"
1t has been an open secret for some time that
Mr.. Andrew Carnegie proposes to give Pitts
burg lift by building large number of
houses The gentleman above quoted. said he
had been informed that MIR. Carnegie would
begin operations next year in the Nineteenth
ward. William Finn and c. l. Magee were
also mentioned as prospective builders OF mole
or less magnitude.
