REAL ESTATE
TRANSACTIONS
Dealers Tell of Present
Activity in Market.

While real estate appears to be or
the move in this city and local dealers
are actively engaged making trans
fers, numerous sales of property are
being made about the city. Many
sales have been made of lots and
plots In Sewaren and Whereabouts,
the western section of this city,
Fords and Metuchen. Local real es-
tate agents state that several sales
Of lots in the western and north
western parts of the city have re-
suited within the past few weeks.
The Metuchen Realty G. Improve
ment Company is selling lots in
Boynton Beach at a fast rate. The
property is located between Port
Reading and Woodbridge and is ad-
Judged ideal for residential purposes.
1t is situated away from the factories
and coal docks about Port Rearing
and Roosevelt, although not too far
for persons who may desire to live
there and work In those factories.
Millions Of dollars have been spent
for g factories and additions In
and about Roosevelt and Port Read
and and this fact, the agents declare,
goes to make the property in that
section more desirable than ever be-
fore. The property is sold In lots
and plots, 50x100 feet in size.
The advertisement In this paper
today will give an idea Of what the
Metuchen Realty & improvement
Company Is going to do. The first
twenty-five persons to turn In cou-
pons printed in this paper will each
receive 800 certificate, which is
transferable for 800 in the pur-
chase OF lots. A feature about the
property is that 1t is improved with
water, gas and electricity. ]. Kreiel-
sheimer & Son OF Smith street, are
the local agents In charge.
John Hanson has numerous calls
for lots in Fords and vicinity.

BRYAN HAS NEW
FOR PEACE
Taft Hears the Nsbraskan's
Scheme to End Wars.

Washington, April s.-William J.
Bryan and President Taft discussed
world peace at their conference at the
White House. Mr.. Bryan suggested a
plan to the president to further his
peace arguments which are based on
the methods employed In several coun-
tries TO settle labor disputes. His idea
Is that several nations are unwilling to
accept arbitration In its entirety, but
would take kindly to the new scheme.
Colonel Bryan proposes that nations
that will not enter into arbitration
treaties agree to submit international
controversies to a complete investiga-
ton by an international board before
war Is declared. The moral effect Of
an impartial finding of this character
would, he believes, prevent the widen
ing Of a breach between two nations
into actual warfare.
The plan Is drawn from the la Dor
statutes OF Canada. There II is re
CURED by law In cases of labor dis
putes that before a strike Is declared
both sides shall submit to an investi-
~oy&ah lm-
partial board. This board renders q
report giving its opinion as to the
cause and merits of the controversy
and offering suggestions for It's settle
ment. 1t is not binding upon either
side. The Canadian government de-
ponds upon public opinion entirely to
give effect to this report, and It has
been found that in a large percentage
Of cases this method is sufficient to
prevent an open rupture. Not only is
public opinion centered upon the stu
alton, but the parties involved are of
fered fair and impartial suggestions
for amicable settlement of the contro-
versy.
1t is the belief Of Colonel Bryan
that a provision Of this character
could be made the basis Of interna-
tional treaties or hat such a provision
could be added to arbitration treaties
which cover only a limited number Of
questions.
1t is realized that complete arbitra-
ton IS a long and radical step for
ward and one which a great many
countries would not now consider.
Colonel Bryan believes, however, that
If more conservative and less binding
proposals were made to them they
would accept.
Mfr. Bryan discussed the world
peace question with the president for
an hour. Mr.. Taft told him Of the
progress that is being made IN the ar
bitration treaty with Great Britain.
The peerless leader" visited the White
House by appointment. He asked a
day or two ago for an interview. As
Mr.. Bryan was leaving the White
House he was asked:
"Whot do You think of the attempt
to rG1kn the Lorimer easel"
81 TX hat is a mere formally"
he retVed. II do not think that that
case has ever been closed"
MI. Bryan refused to be pinned
down to the press statements concern
ing his faYoritism to any one Of the
available presidential candidates in
the Democratic party.
"What the papers say on those Ques-
tons" he observed, "are often only
said to be corrected the next day"
well. how about the editorials in
the C~ommoner?"
But Mr.. Bryan Interrupted to add
that the Commoner was perhaps a lit
tie less frequent In its changes 'be-
cause II only m out nee a week"

BREAK GROUND
FOR BUILDINGS
Spring Work Being Rushed
by Contractors.

Ground was broken yesterday for
the construction of a modern three
story brick building for apartments
and stores at the southeast corner
Of Center and State streets. The
building will have a frontage of $50
feet in State street and so feet in
Center street and will be erected af-
ter the plans of Architect James NJ
Growney. Ira Grouse is the contrac-
tor. The building will be known as
the Brown building, the property
belonging to Thomas Brown, the To-
cal attorney. With the completion
of this building the whole block On
the east side of State street between
Center and Fayette street will pre-
sent a fine substantial appearance,
which will mean much for the de-
velopment of that section OF State
street as a business center. A three
story brick building already occupies
the Fayette street end Of the block.
Work is now progressing well on
the new cloak and suit factory for
Manheimer & Kasse at the southeast
corner Of Washington and Division
streets, ground having been broken
about q month ago.
1t Is understood that G. C. Chris
Jensen will begin tearing down the
south wing OF the Westminster build,
in Kearny avenue below Harrison
Place shortly after the 18th of this
month, when deeds are expected to
be transferred rs q result of the
foreclosure sale OF the tract OF
which the Westminster is a part,
which was held last month. A num-
Der Of the new owners OF the two
score and more lots which were
transferred at that sale will break
ground about the same time for the
construction of dwellings for per-
sonal use and speculation. It Ia ex-
pected that very little Of the tract
will remain long unimproved, as 1t is
in a desirable neighborhood and the
legal cobwebs have now been re-
moved.
Koyen & O~stergaard have about
completed the new stucco dwelling
in earny avenue, Just south of Har-
rison Place, which Is an oddly in
this locality. The building was con-
structed as an experiment for spec
ulation purposes.
There is considerable building of
dwellings under way and contem-
in the vicinity of the city hos
pital this spring. This section is
due for a wonderful boom with the
extension OF transportation facilities
to that neighborhood, which is bound
to come within a few years.
