CAR SHOPS
CLOSE TO LAWNlALE
Expenditure of $50,000,000 on
Redondo Beach Railway
Line Development

Right on top of the announcement
that the Los Angeles investment COM
pany is to expend $40,000,000 on its 1900
acres just twelve minutes forth of
I.awndale, comes the welcome news
that the electric car shops are to be
located only three minutes from the
center of Lawndale's business district.
AS the Guy M. Rush company, Inc ,
owners of Lawndale, have reported in
the various papers a total of over $l50,-
600 in sales at LaWndale since the
opening of their tract, April 10, 1910, 1t
is only reasonable to conclude that
with these later developments there
will be such a scramble for the few re-
naming pieces of ground left in Lawn
dale townsite that only those who have
the true investors foresight will act
quickly enough to secure one Of these
bargains. ............. ..-...
The improvements that are now un-
der way at Lawndale, such as new
residences, extension of waterworks,
opening of the $751; 900 factory etc, are
only a part of the general activity
along the acknowledgements railway.
Conservative figures show that total
sum of $5O,000OOO is to be expenued
between the southwest edge of the city
and Redondo. This, it appears, abso-
lutely assures the future of all prop
erty along the line, particularly Lawn
dale, which has been selected by the
railway company as one of the two
important centers.
There is a persistent rumor gong
the rounds that group of wealthy
syndicators have purchased the lana
adjoining Lawndale on the south with
the intention of placing it on the mar
ket at an early date with all the i'm
provements that tend to make subur-
ban life ideal. Anyone can readily zee
that this will raise the price of all the
property in Lawndale townsite.
A partial list of the persons VINO
have been keen enough to recognize
the opportunity of making money in
Lawndale realty is given below.

OIL AND MINING NEW
FACTORS IN BIC DEAL
Work on New Hotel and Pleasure
Pier at Ocean Park Now
Under Way

Live interests centers in the develop
ment of the accepted plans for big i'm
proVements at Ocean Park and Venice.
The promotion syndicate, which COM
prises an organization of oil and min
ing capitalists who have planned the
erection of a great hotel and pleasure
resort at Ocean Park, has let the con-
tract says the Evening Journal, to
Charles w. Corbaley to proceed at once
with the construction of the new pier.
This is to be located at the foot of
Navy street. 1t will have width of
fifty feet and will be 500 feet in length.
1t may be longer. Contractor Corbaley
is assembling men and materials and
will be ready to begin work soon. This
is the pier that is needed to give access
for automobiles to the projected hotel,
which is to be built by the same syn
dictate of capital on the strand between
Marine and Navy streets. The shore
end of the pier will consist of wooden
piles, but at the water line and west
ward the piles will be Of reinforced
concrete. 1t is expected the foundation
piles for the hotel will be driven just
as soon as the pier is completed.
November l was the date fixed upon
for the starting of work when this
syndicate first completed its organiza-
ton, and plans have been developing
along these lines ever since. The plans
for the hotel have been drawn and ac-
copied and the city trustees have
granted the fifteen-year license as de-
sired. The government has given its
assent to the construction of the pier,
and now there is nothing in the way to
interfere with building operations.
Numerous amusement features of
high class. are planned for the syndi-
Gates other holdings on the beach, in
the vicinity of Kinney street, but work
has not been started on anything there.
For the present, building operations
will be in the vicinity of the frontage
purchased by the syndicate from Earl
Gilman and now known as Gilman's

Bis FORTUNE FOR
WOMAN INVESTOR
South Main Street Property Sold
to St. Louis Investor
for $4,000
PROFIT OF $4,000 IN 7 YEARS
In Early Days the Lot Was Pur-
chased for $500 for a
Home Place
PROFIT OF $4,000 IN 7 YEARS

Mrs. Fanny M. Kelley made lucky
investment seven years ago when she
purchased through R. A. Rowan &
Co. the property at 533-557 South Main
street for 100000.
Friday Mrs. Kelley through the same
agency sold the property to Jeanette
G. Donovan of st. Louis, Mo-, for
$135, 900, netting a clear profit of $75,-
900, or about $1O,715 year for seven
years, besides enjoying the rentals
from the one-story structures on the
lot for the same period.
1t is the intention of Jeanette Dom
ovan to have the old buildings removed
to give place to modern structures.
Many years ago Mrs. j. c. Rowan
bought the lot sold for $500, on which
she built a house. The sale just closed
represents a valuation of $2700 a front
foot.

October the total valuation of all i'm

was due to the realization of the early
predictions made by Chief Inspector
Backus, Chief Clerk Conn and others
of the official family that the grand
total valuation for 1910 would reach
100000 900. Indications are favorable
for an amount in excess of $40, OO0,OOO,

The annual meeting of the Shat

erection of a smeiter for the Shattuck

pany Is Of the opinion that there will
be nothing doing along this line until
more development work has beeL
done on the Denn-Arizona. Shattuck

Copper Queen smelters the richest ore
that has gone out of this camp in
many years. The ore coming from

averaging IS and II per cent copper
and Shattuck is producing at the rate
of 100000 pounds per month with a
net profit of 500. 200 each thirty days.

The most plausible explanation of
the decline in c. & A. shares is the
opinion advanced by one Of the big
mining men of this section who is
more or less familiar with the tactics
adopted by Wall street when there is
a desired result 10 be accomplished.
He says those interested in forming
the copper merger are determined that
&. & A. shall come in on a basis of
$1,000 per share and that certain
cOterie of financiers have set out 10
put the stock down to that price. A
Calumet broker has the following 10
sax on this subject:
There is 40 doubt that efforts have
been made to turn over Calumet and
Arizona to the copper trust. Matters
have reached a point where it is re.
ported there may be change IN the
