REAL ESTATE & BUILDING.
NO CHANGE FROM THE PREVIOUS
WEEK an THE MARKET.
Portion eF the President's Message
Which Specially Pleases Real Estate
Men-The Transfers and Building
Permits of the Week.

The state of the real estate market during
the past week can best be best described as
stationary, the activity which was noticed
during the earlier part of the week proving to
be so slight as to be hardly perceptible later
on. OF course dealers expect at this season
a stationary market, and no real forward
movement is contemplated until after the
opening of the new year. AS was aptly said
by a prominent dealer last week: "This is
the time of the year when investors are
deeply engaged in looking over the field, and
for that very reason there is felt neither for
ward nor a backward movement. There is
plenty of money to be had here, and at the
proper time that money will be used In ad-
vancing one of the most spirited movements
in the local real estate market ever seen."
In general way, such seems to be the uni
versal impression of dealers.
Another dealer, in speaking of the
state of the market, said that the SEN
tfments of the President, as expressed
In his annual message respecting civil
service reform, gave great satisfaction to
Washington real estate dealers, for the rea-
son that maintaining of the civil service
rules encouraged the average Government
employe to invest in Washington real estate,
thing which would not be done did there
exist doubt as to the stability of those rules
and regulations.
In the building world the past week there
was noticed quite decline in the average
value of the buildings for which permits were
granted. The principal building appearing
in the permits issued the past week, was the
hospital to be erected on Massachusetts, ave-
nue., between Sixth and Seventh streets north
west The next important one was that issued
to William Pabst for the erection of the two
story houses in the northeast.
During the past week sixteen permits for
the erection Of twentY-seven buildings at a
total cost of $55, 100 were issued, the average
cost per building being little over s., 600.
The buildings were thus divided: Northwest,
six, at a cost of $23, ,250; northeast, thirteen,
at cost of $20,900; southwest, three, at
cost of $1,S50; southeast, two, at a cost Of
$500, and county, three, at a cost Of So, 500.
