Several private sales. for which the brokers had
been working for weeks with fair hopes OF Sue
cess fell through completely. while the auction
rooms which promised many good things TOT
prospective bidders a week ago. collapsed almost
entirely, far the large offerings were con-

Broadway and Newest parcels, the proposed saIe
of which had been well advertised by George H.
Read while the suit of infant heir forced the
postponement Of the sale Of the Bathgate estate
