REAL ESTATE TOO HIGH.
Gen. Bell Skaters Hopes of Several
Texas Land Owners

San Antonio, Tex, Oct 16.-There are
several san Antonians who are doing
considerable crashing Of teeth as the
result Of Gen. Franklin Bells visit 20
Fort Sam Houston. The garrison at
that post having recently been increased
to a brigade. and. with other organiza-
tons coming in the near future, more
real estate is greatly needed for barrack
sites and drill ground.
Enterprising real estate owners whose
property adjoins the post in the direc-
ton where expansion is most desirable,
were asked some time ago what they
wanted for their holdings. Though the
the price somewhat fancy the possibility
of a sale was still very good.
Gen. Bell, however, has knocked the
possibility sky high. He gave the pro-
perty owners TO understand that the
price asked was prohibitive and the army
could get along without it. What is
more he refused TO recommend the pUr-
chase Of the property az anything near
its present price. Although the price
OF real estate has increased tremendous
~ within the last two years there is
little that would justify the considera-
ton demanded by the owners in Ques-
ton.
Gen. Bell gave It as his opinion that
no special appropriations for the army
could be expected next year and that for
this reason very little building would be
done.
THE administration must first ascer-
tain the amount OF revenue there is go
ing to be forthcoming as a result OF the
new tariff measure, he said.

The physical condition Of the property
was never so good as ii is at the pres
ent time The resumption Of industrial
activity has been potent factor in in

The elaborate plan for improving the
system, which has been in progress

earnings applicable to interest on the

for the last few years for betterments,
will be available for interest again after

The United Railways have been al
