BUILDING AC TIVE
IN CITY AN D
STATE
Indications Are That There Will Be
Much Work for Detroit Builders in
Outside Towns and Cities the
Coming Summer.
New Building for Gregory, Mayer &
Thorn, On Cadillac-Sq., Will Be
Fine Modern Structure.

- The weekly report of the Builders
and Traders exchange shows that
large amount OF new work has come
In. This consists principally of resi-
dences of various types of construc-
iion. several apartment buildings and
stores, a large number OF alterations
and changes and three-story society
building and factory building Two
new schools and large Office build
ing were reported from the state, and
II is the general opinion that there
viii be much work in the state during
tn year
Among the more prominent awards
Of the week are the following:
Baker studio building, on Washing
ton-ave, near Clifford.st; large apart
ment building for VIM. II. Williams,
on Willis-ave., near John R.-st., and
one for j. f. RocEo, at East Grand
Boulevard and Champlain-st.; switch
house at Second-ave and Amsterdam
St, and a sub-station and battery
house on Macomb between Brush and
Randolph-sts for the Edison Illuminat-
Ing Co.; alterations and changes for
the enlargement OF the Hofbrau cafe,
Lafayette-aye. and Shelby-st.: altera
ton TO store building at No. 1913 Wood
ward-ave.
Additional and remaining contracts
were let on variety OF miscellaneous
work.
One OF the most interesting bits OF
news of the week was the announce
ment that Gregory, Mayer Thorn, sta
TONERS and Office outfitters, at Wood
ward-ave. and Congress-st., had secur-
ed 99-year lease Of the Central Mar
ket property, sx10O feet, at Cadillac
So, and Bates-st.
While Gregory, Mayer & Thorn will
not come into possession OF the prop
erty until 1914, II has been decided
to erect a modern fireproof steel and
concrete store and Office building on
this site.
The building will be eight or 10
stories in height, and the first two
floors will be occupied by the sales
rooms and show rooms OF Gregory,
Mayer q Thorn. IL is possible that the
factory will also be moved to the
new building, but this has not been
decided upon. This factory now oc-
cupies the upper floors OF about half
the block In which the firm is now To-
Gated. The rest OF the building will
be given over to Offices.
I'VE have been working on the deal
for a year." said Mr.. Gregory, but
II was closed so suddenly that have
not yet had time to get building plans
In shape. While we will probably oc-
cupy the first two floors only for our
store and showrooms and rent the
rest of the building for Offices, our
plans are not fully decided upon. We
can tell more about IL when our archi-
tects get the plans ready. Rents have
been going up SO fast on Woodward
ave-, that we thought II wise to take
the opportunity OF geetting property
for ourselves when II is offered"

bria We ran on a said bar, and the
Kingdom was not long in breaking up,
There were thirty-seven men and women
on the Kingdom. and we all escaped In
small boats to the Coronet. which we
found in the Cambria.
I'VE sailed for the coast OF South
America, and then started on our re-
turn to Portland, Me. We encountered
some very grave dangers, but I shall
not talk about them.
I'VE suffered, or course. but sufferings
are a part Of our lot. We suffered in
silence, the women on the Coronet be-
ing equally as patient as. II not more pa
tient than, the men.
There are real women on that boat.
They know the world, and they know
the things that try mems souls. When
the Kingdom sank, many of us were in
the water up to our necks. There was
nc panic.
Hunger? Yes: that was one Of the
trials we experienced We are here now
for food and will get IT.
Capt. Perry said the Coronet will con-
tinue on her way to Portland, even II
the revenue cutters overtake her.
The yawl in which the men came to
Norfolk is equipped with a motor and
sails also. The yawl was damaged by
seas and was sent TO a shipyard for re.
pairs tonight.

Moore just mounted. The bicycle

Tucker realized that he had to act
quickly, as he saw Moore and the wheel
making good headway down U street.
He ran to the curbing, mounted the
other bicycle, and rode to Fourteenth
and U streets for a policeman. On his
way he passed the energetic Moore
painting for breath. Together the po-
liceman and the owner approached
Moore. He was arrested and will have
