The second sale is declared to have topped this amount by a neat sum. Name of the buyer in the latter deal was withheld. The property, measuring 100 by 10O feet. contains four frame dwellings and one store building.

This firm closed sale of lots during the past week, in- yolying $28,000; residences and apart ments totaling over $50,O00. A feature of the deals was the transfer of a four-fsmily apartment house on the northeast corner of Sixth alley and Six teenth street from Ike Adler to Mrs. R. F. Johnston, at $16,0O0.

BOARD POSTPONES
 HEARING TO SEPT. 8
Statistics And Data On Rules
 Involved Are Sought

CHICAGO, July 2S.-The railroad labor board today postponed until Sep tember 8 hearings of tie dispute be- tween representatives of the engine em- ployes of virtually all the western roads and the carriers. The postpOnement was to give the road additional time to se- cure historical data on the rules in volved.
 When the board adjourned there were indications that steps would be taken before September 8 to establish in the courts, the boards authority to sum mon and compel parties to dispute to submit their case to the tribunal. It has been contended by the employees or ganizations that the board held no juris- diction in their controversy with the western carriers in that negotiat tions which were being carried on privately, did not threaten suspension of traffic.
