The Wai:ham Block.

The New England Northwestern In
vestment Company have let the contract
for the "Waltham block" a three-story
and basement brick and stone building to
be erected on South Second street. The
block complete will cost about So, 5000.
NJ. ii. Young, general manager OF the
above company, has leased the south half
of the block to Webb & Co., wholesale
grocers, and the north half to James Gosh
& Co. wholesale grocers and commission
merchants.
At the present time Webb & Co. occupy
the Ingeis building, corner of South Sec
ond and Jackson streets, but their increas-
ing business demands additional accom-
modations, which they secure by this
lease. as the Waltham block joins the In
gels building on the north.
James Gosh & Co. are at present located
on West street, but their growing business
makes their present store space entirely
inadequate. This firm will occupy the
three floors and basement of the north
half of the Waltham block. The building
will be COMPLETED about September l.

night. but it has been decided that had
better take the water and sewer bonds in
July, when the time comes for their de-
livery. They cannot be signed until July
1, because it will be necessary to have a
certificate that the officials signing them
were OH that date the men lawfully hold
ing the office.
at will be necessary for somebody to go
with them, and l have come to the con-
clusion that l can induce Blair & Co. to
accept the s135,Oo0 bonds whose legality
they have questioned. l find that the
issue Of 100000 of last year were in the
same condition as those in question. and
the same points were passed upon by the
supreme court in the city's favor. For
that reason will take them myself. 1t
is cheaper to do it that way than by ex-
press or any other means, and l hope TO
save the city the expense of another spe-
cial election"
