REAL ESTATE DEPARTMENT
REAL ESTATE NEWS.

Spectators In dwellings and other real
estate have been making considerable COM
plant of late because of the extra cost re-
quired before a clear title to the property
can be had. The selling price is not all that
is required of a purchaser. There are Tees
for the deeds, the recording of same, besides
several others, which are deemed necessary
to protect the owners. These matters max
dealing in real estate different from that OF
any other business. This, it is contended, Is
not right, as one business should be the same
as another, SO far as the commercial part is
concerned.
Real estate is considered the best bond
that can be offered, and for this reason
alone it is thought it should be shorn of the
necessity of extra payments for making
searches to see If there are any unheralded
claims against the property. This is not the
case in any other business, as when you pay
for q thing n get a receipt that is an end
end to it, but with real estate buying it is
not so.
A prominent downtown operator in dis
cusslng the matter with a NEWS reporter a
few days ago declared himself as being in
favor of changing the naodus operdndi in
regard to dealings in real estate. He is of
the opinion that a law should be created
which would give the owner of a property
the right to issue a general mortgage, such
as railroad companies do, and have that re-
corded. Then at any time when he wishes
to borrow money on his property he can
issue bonds of such a denomination as he
sees fit up to the value of his mortgage.
This, he commended, would simplify matters
and facilitate real estate trading.
81 believe the whole system for transfers
of real estate should be changed, he said.
Each piece of real estate recorded in the
United States should be in the form of a GER
tiicate or bond in the same form as the Gov
eminent pond or certificate of railroad or
other securities. It would do away with all
the trouble of flaws upon titles or petty an
noyances of an incompetent c~onveyancer.
The transfers should be made by passing the
certificate from seller to buyer absolutely
without risk to the purchaser. In
that event real estate would be
on the market, as it is in
minds of careful investors the only reliable
and Interchangeable holding that is traded in
in all the markets of the world. .sTo prove
this suggestion / assert, as fact,
that no holder of mortgages on real estate in
this city would sell for one per cent. discount
on the cost price, and there is no other Sc
curity they hold that they would not gladly
sell at from one to fifty per cent. discount at
cut price. When you think q Government
bond based on the realty of the county is
taken In preference to a gold certificate, it is
no stretch of imagination to say the real es-
tate of the county is the safest and most sat
isfactory security. That being a fact, an
effort should be made to make the transfer
easy, safe and sure. | have not formulated
in my mind exactly how this should be done,
but | am positive it can be as easily done on
the same principle as a railroad bond is is
sued ~

by long and oft repeated cheers. The noise

looked out of his window his crysanthemum

cried, Indignantly, aud in a jiffy he donned
his coat and hat and notified the Fifth pre-

to arrest as many of the youngsters as posi-

coming down the avenue they scampered
away. They left two bats behind them, and
these Policeman Meyer took to the station
