properties or to the prospective buyers.

Buyers Willing But Owners Coy
AS a matter Of fact in all the rumored
negotiations the trouble was not with
the buyers. who were not somuch in
clined 10 balk at prices. as with own
ers who had almost TO man raised the
limit beyond all previous expectations.
Properties that a couple Of years ago

thousands added on TO the prices then
asked. Notwithstanding all this dealers

Rumors Run Down.
Prominent among the rumors was one
that the sum OF $4,000 had been Of
fered for a property not far removed
from the corner OF Fourteenth and @
streets, but the owners wanted $4,000
more than that sum.
And still another was 10 the effect that
a piece OF property bad been contracted
for at a cost OF $4,000 on which a new
theater was projected. The metes and
bounds OF this piece was not so clearly

SPLENDID WEEK FOR
OUTSIDE PROPERTY
Deals for Several Tracts That Will Be
Subdivided and Promptly
Built Upon.

Although the chilling weather Of the
past week was not favorable TO activity
in suburban development, the amount Of
transactions along that line came very
near TO making 1t a record week. The
largest deal was that made by the syndi-
cate Of Washington capitalists repre-
sented by E. southard Parker. who pur-
chased the eighty acres belonging TO the
Lynch heirs adjoining the Catholic Uni
versity, paying for It the sum of S125, 600.
AS stated in The Times, ii is their in
tention 10 subdivide and build number
Of dwellings on it so that the amount 70
be involved will represent a very cOnsid-
erable sum-
The next in Importance was the pur-
chase by Harry wardman Of a part Of
the Rhees tract on Fourteenth street ex-
tended, which he intends subdividing
and building a number of dwellings
upon.
While not to be cIassed as suburban
property. the purchase by George s
Cooper of 400 feet fronting or street

section which has been so rapidly build

aggregate would make a very gratifying

sidered for public park. They state
that the territory IN question cOnstI-
tutes one-third Of the area Of Washing

The injustice OF the treatment accorded
to their section IS also commented upon
In connection with all other portions OF
the city which have been provided with
many parks, and Il Is also urged that

be purchased now when II can be had
at reasonable prices. inasmuch as in a

SUBURBAN DEVELOPMENT
OF WASHINGTON RAPID
But it Took Some Time to Discover
the Beauties Of the Country
Surrounding.

The suburban development OF Wash
ington IN the past few years and the
remarkable movement in the same d.
rection this spring Is giving some people
cause for wonder. yet the wonder really
IS that tbs development did not come
sooner.
Fifteen years ago Washington had al
most no suburbs. Cleveland Park was
a few scattered homes. Chevy Chase
had hardly got a start, lexington was
an embryo addition. Mt Pleasant
He. Ehts had not been thought OF. nor
had many OF the other suburbs that are
now so attractive.
No city in the country has more
beautiful surrounding country than
Washington, yet u has taken many
years for the people of this city 10 real
ize and decide 20 enjoy it as has been
done in almost every large city in the
country. The last year or two, how
ever, has witnessed an awakening and
the reports from all sources IS Of a
prosperous sprirg business IN suburban
property.

GREATER FACILITIES
FOR SUBURBAN TRAFFIC

President Mellon, Of the New York.
New Haven and Hartford Railroad Com
pany. states that this company has plans
for a great combination OF steam and
electric service for its suburban traffic
The scheme IN brief is 10 run electric
trains on the main line OF the company
from the suburban points These trains
VIII make the same speed that the ordi-
nary suburban trains would. Instead Of
going into The station. however, they
win be switched of the main line after
entering the cities. and will run on the
street railway tracks. giving the same
service as street cars. This IS the sec
ond step in the plan under which the
railroad recently has acquired many
street railroads throughout Connecticut.
Large expenses viii be made necessary
as special cars. heavy enough 10 make
speed on the main railway line, but light
and small enough for the street traffic,
