AT five o'clock Auctionser Becken-
baugh adjourned the sale until to-day.
Besides the above lots which were
disposed OF, several dwellings were sold.
A twO-stOry frame dwelling and lots
Nos. Is, 10, II and is in section 80, were
knocked down to j. P. Adams, of this
city for 1900. The Burnley house and
lots Nos. TO Z, inclusive, in section 35,
were also secured by Mr.. Adams, after
some sharp bidding, for $500. The
house Is a substantial two-Story brick,
and barn on an adjoining lot could be
removed to it. The new Hicks house, a
large, substantial two-story brick, was
next put up, with about an acre Of
ground. There was some lively bidding
between the owner aud Mr.. Alfred
PAUL, OF this city, but it was finally
knocked down to the latter at his bid Of
Sc, $50.
The bidding started off briskly in the
afternoon, and the first lots were sold
at high prices. As the sale proceeded
bidding was more cautious, and the
prices secured were in some cases very
low. On the whole the sale entirely
satisfies the expectations Of the COM
pany, and several of the officials last
night expressed themselves as well
pleased with the result. The aggregate
amount OF the sales was S5S,225. One
hundred and SiXty-nine lots were sold
and the average price, without consld-
ering the houses, was $3.50. The high
est price received was 81, $50 for each OF
two lots on the Burley farm, and the
lowest price was S145.
The grounds of the company were
the subject Of much praise from the Wis
itors yesterday. The new brick works
is in operation, and turning out 10000
to 3O,OOO bricks per day. Some Of these
are used in constructing the buildings
for the FostOria Glass COmpany's plant.
The foundations have been finished, and
work has commenced upon the walls.
1t is expected to have the factory in the
operation by January 1st, and seventy
FIVE families will remove from Fostoria.
The site for Bells foundry and other
Industrial establishments, and the hotel
were all pointed out to the visitors.
