The building operations In the various

covering the building permits issued during

| operations OF this country are now more
| extensive than at any previous time in its
history. Almost universally there has been
! a gain over last year. and in many IN
| stances this is simply astonishing. Tho
| permits issued in Greater New York
amounted TO So. 296. 674. being almost ex-
| actly double those of August. 1904. In
Manhattan the gain was 134 per cent; in
| Brooklyn. 20 per cent, and in the Bronx
| 2oS per cent. Operations in Chicago are
| second only to those of the metropolis
amounting to Sc, 4O1, $50, gain of SO per
| cent. Philadelphia follows Chicago with
| permits amounting to 50 $40. 200. st. Louis
| reports 81, S55, $50. a gain of 25 per cent.
This is especially gratifying. showing as 1t
does that the large building operations
| there during the past two years were not
| carried on at the expense of the future. as
| was freely predicted. That the building
prosperity Is wide as the country Is
| shown from the following list of permits
with the percentage of gain: Buffalo, $3.50

| In view of the fact that the yellow fever

| The losses are comparati lively small and, in

| large city which shows a loss amounting
| to only IA per cent. and due to the rebuild,
! ing operations of last season.
