SYNDICATE ON HUNT.
]. H. Anderson & Co. and
the Planters Hardware
Co. in Market.

The latest transactions in real es-
tate of any magnitude are those of
J. H. Anderson & Co., and the Plan
tiers Hardware Co., negotiations for
the former having led to a transfer
last Tuesday. The price paid for
the vacant Garnett lots and the store
room on the north was $4,000. The
property was owned by Mr.. ]. F.
Garnett, being part Of his original
ly, three-story block extending to
9Th street. The property is in the
exact center Of the business part of
the city and the purchasers are de-
lighted over having secured it. The
price they regard as a very reasona-
BILE figure. 1t is really the only
piece of property large enough and
belonging to one party that would
meet their wants. They had been
negotiating for it for some time. j.
H. Anderson & Co. have long recog-
nized the fact that their business has
Increased so rapidly since moving
down in the bottom in 1894 that
their present quarters are made
quate, though they now have floor
capacity of Is, 48O square feet. The
building they are contemplating
putting up on their recently acquir-
ed property will give them a space
of 26, $50, or 200 feet over double
that of their leased buildings.
They have recently taken four
year lease on their present quarters
and are not yet trying to fix on a
plan for their new building. The
store room embraced in the purchase
will at once be RACED to the ground
and the debris of the fallen build
lings removed. Messrs. Anderson &
Co. have signifed their intention
of erecting an immense building,
that for beauty and adaptation will
eclipse all other buildings of like
character in the city. The property
that has just come into their hands
has a frontage of 70 feet and runs
back 1872 feet.
The purchase by the Planters
Hardware Co. of half of the Rags
dale & Cooper building last Satur-
day, though the transfer was not
made until Monday, is the largest
deal in real estate that has been
made for years. The consideration
was $27, 500. The company in OBJ
tanning this valuable property Sc
cured the only building at all suita-
BILE for its needs that was available.
Owing to the location and the high
price Of building material of all
kinds and the advance in ptees paid
to skilled mechanics and laborers,
the Hardware Company think they
have made a great bargain, and
judges of realty are of the same
opinion. The company expects soon
to make radical changes in the build
ing. The main entrance in the cen
ter of the block is embraced in their
purchase. The offices on the right
of the entrance, now occupied by the
Meacham Engineering Co., are to
be overhauled and will be used for
the offices of the hardware company,
as the present Office is entirely too
