SILkS-Trade Inactive,

With most firms in the silk market
closed yesterday because of the jew
ish holiday. there was little attempt
made BY those who remained open to
do ausness. A few sales by novelty
and speciality concerns were reported.
A majority of out flown buyers in
the city, realizing that jobbers, who
now afford the only source of imme-
date supply of staple silk. would be
closed, remained away from the market.
In connection with the efforts being

Real Estate Market
A Lease To Be Binding
Need Not Be Lengthy
Conditions Written on Edge of
Newspaper and Signed by
Principals Are Sufficient

A written lease is not necessarily
the usual formidablelooking instru-
ment formally executed by both par
ties. The New York statute re-
quires nothing so formal in order to
constitute valid written lease An
offer scrawled on the margin of news
paper designating the premises. the
term, the rent, and the consideration
for the bargain, and subscribed to by
the landlord is all that needs to be in
writing. All of tina. need not be on
one sheet and may be written in sew
eral places so long as they can with
certainty be read together. The tenant
need not sign the paper but must ac-
cept 1t orally or in some other definite
manner. A written offer by a pros
pective tenant to lease certain prem
ises, on which the landlord writes "ac-
cepted" and subscribes his name, is
sufficient lease if there is considera-
tion, which need not be in money. A
rubber stamp is sufficient signature,
If the proper hand applies it.

development, inasmuch as the Scandi-
navian countries have every opportu-
nifty and facility for procuring aniline

Purchases in the American market,
some dealers state, would indicate
dissatisfaction with either the quality
OF German colors or the prices asked
by German traders. Many American

Builders Are
Planning as
Never Before
Actively Making Ready i'll
Every Section; Gains Re-
corded i'll Many Places;
Permits Increase in Man.
haitian l $50

Building permits issued in 1853 cities
of the United States last month, as
officially reported to The American
Contractor show that planning of
building activity has forged ahead, as
evidenced by number and valuation Of
permits taken out. July activity is
exceeded, the average valuation per
city for 162 cities in July being less
than $900,000 while the value per city
tor 1873 cities in August is over ST ,OOO,-
600, giving a total valuation of $780,
94I.233 for 35,535 permits issued in
the latter month. as against valua-
ton of $140,474,662 for $500 permits
issued in July.
1T IS interesting to note that the
valuation of the individual permit has
increased considerably, the average
value in August being 81 534. as against
an average value Of $3,76O for Julv.
S3,375 for June, $4,000 for Nav and
$1,700 for January.
Activity may be said to be spottv.
but there are no defined regions where
IN cities show gains and where thew
snow losses. A comparison of lao cities
with July records shows eighty-three
gains for August and fifty seven losses.
important cities wherein relatively
heavy gains are shown are Akron.
boston, Cleveland, Dcs Moines. Duluth,
Fort Worth, Grand Rapids, Mich, In
dlanapolls, Pittsburgh, Pueblo, Seattle,
Toledo and Worcester, Mass.
:, Queens is the only borough Of New
York showing a less valuation of per-
mits than for July. Brooklyn and
Manhattan register big gains.
Chicago, Denver, Philadelphia, South
Bend, Ind; Springfield, Ill; Tulsa,
Okla, and Wilkes Barre, Penn. show
great recession from July valuations.
The gain in activity over 1918 is
heavier in August than it has been in
any preceding month.
Construction planned in greater New
York last month and during August,
1918, shows surprising gains. For
instance, the increase in Manhattan is
1,5S6 per cent. The statistics relative
to operations in this city are:
