Ranid transit is blamed q factor in the causes
Of ar exceedingly dull week in real estate, with, ae-
cordin- to "The Record and Guide "no immediate
prospect of nt7lmprOvement in real estate
NOT rapid transit 1t IS the prospect Of improvement
in rapid transit that has helped 70 bring about the
dismal outlook In the other matter. 1t IS explained
in this way since the Commission was appointed ana
even before the comforting powers on the Comms
sion was passed operators were looking Tor properly
along the Boulevard and other which it seemed
probabe might be chosen as rapid transit routes
Pending the decision Of the Commissioners. the con-
summation of transactions the prelimnaries OF which
have been already arranged, is pending; While late
yUud-be investors find to theif sOrrow that present
have awakened to realizing sense OF
fat things in fuurty should the Commissions light
ming glance on their holdings, and have become ar
bitrary and naughty in their demands Brokers COM
plaln that the building strike has affected the lot
market that sales in it are hard to close.
An interesting piece Of news, which is said to be
annroyimatelv correct comes in regard 10 the prop
ertv on the east front Of Churchst between Corandt
and Dey Sta upon which Theodore Havemeyer pro
