frequency than formerly. There Is good
market for business property in the vi

Realty. Reports of large accumulations
of money looking for profitable investment,
and of the low rates Of income on which
corporate properties and industrials are
being funded are stimulating to the real
estate market. 6y contrast with these
1t Is said that the real estate market pre-
sents to the investor far better opportuni-
ties for profit, present and prospective.
Brokers and owners would like to see in
vestors satisfied with the same rates Of
income from real estate as they appear to
be contented to take from other forms Of
investment, but that would be too great
a change from previous experiences. Prices
which had been keyed up in some very Sc
lect localities to q speculative pitch, have
recently declined, so that there is oppor-
tunity now to buy at rates which will re-
turn very satisfactory profits in the course
of q few years.

The national assembly at Malolos, at
recent sitting, voted Aguinaldo a civil list
of $4,000, but Aguinaldo declined to re-
ceive anything until the army should have
been paid. An attempt was made by Pa
lerno the speaker of the house, to have
inserted clause granting him an allow
ance because of his Office, but the proposal
was rejected. The Spanish community is
endeavoring to secure the enforcement of
the release of prisoners. Personal inves-
legations made in the province emphasize
the determination of the insurgents to OBJ
tain a specific guarantee of favora able
terms before releasing the prisoners now
in their hands, and it is certain that they
will never cheaply relinquish their dearly
bought conquests.
