SIGNIFICANCE OF THE SALE OF THE

Gossip among real estate men during the week
naturally centred the sale OF the Custom House

other large purchases In the same neghborhood by
the New-York Realty Bond Exchange and Trust
Company. Details OF the latter transactions are
given elsewhere. For the Custom House the Ma
tional CITY Bank by general consent is an ideal
purchaser. Not for the heason that the historic
structure will be preserved but because the perma-
nent location OF such a corporation at this point
Will do much to strengthen values In a district
