with Frank Mullen who keeps the barroom IN inc

from the advertising signs which cover the front and

When the erection Of the Savoy was well under way
Judge Ducro bought the lot adjoining Mullen's rom
Vice President Levi P Morton for $4,000, and had
excavations made for the foundations Of building
which might be used for either Offices apartments.
He had also thought OF establishing bank ON the

Mullen lot for 100000 To treat Mullen fairly, ne
went TO him and told him he did not want
10 turn him out Of his lease without doing the right
thing by him, and asked him what his price would
be- Mullen told him TO another day for his
terms and the Judge went away. Judge Dugro was
not aware that Mullen's lease had only few weeks
to run II ne bad known, he micht have been saved
from much disappointment. Mullen sent for his
LAWYER and went with him to the women In charge
OF the estate, and Offered 10 take renewal OF the
lease for five years at annual rental Of $4,000.
The offer was accepted, and when Judge Dugro went
again to close the option at the 100000 figure tho
women wanted $4,000 for the land. They had got
an exaggerated idea of the value Of the lot from Null

Tho sudden increase in the figures rather staggered
the Judge but ne went to Mullen and asked him what
he would take for his lease. Mullen said II the Judge
would poy the $4,000 for FIVE years rent he would
sign the lease over to him. Judge Dugro did not
accept Mullens offer, and while he retains option
on tho lot he has decided to wait and how things
turn out. lie says he has given up the idea of o
