Opinions differ among local dealers as
to the advisability of flour inspection. but

deed has been placed on record by the
trustees of the Travers estate transferring
to Arthur Herbert and Herbert Bryant of
Alexandra, Va, the property on the mort h
side of Pennsylvania avenue between 18th
and 18th streets known as the Bradbury
building. This is a portion of the hold
lngs of this estate, which comprised nearly
the whole of the western part of the
square. and was recently offered at pub
lie sale. The Bradbury building was not
sold at that time, as the highest bid re-
ceived was $4,000 Since then the trus-
tees have disposed of the property at pr-
vate sale. as above Indicated the consid-
Grafton being So 800.
The building. which extends through the
square from Pennsylvania avenue to f
street, was erected on a lease several
years ago by the Bradbury Piano Com
pany and has since been occupied by that
concern. Its representative in this city
Mr.. w. P. Van Wickle, has made lease
for ten years with the new owners of the
property, so that the tenancy of the
building will remain unchanged.
Purchase of the property adjoining the
Bradbury building on the east, and which
was offered at public auction when the
rest of the holdings belonging to the es-
tate were advertised for sale but was
withdrawn because the highest bid was
not considered satisfactory by the trus-
tees, is said to be no.: under consideration
by some Baltimore people. In the event
also extends through to street, it is
understood to be the intention to erect a
building there that will be suitable for use
as department store.
