lis has reached a more stable point

which this year promises to surpass
all others, it was pointed out.
More buildings, offices, residences
and business rooms are occupied
now than were six months ago and
there also are more vacancies and
less construction on at present,
which, according to real estate men,
shows that the residents are select
ing, with greater care, better loca-

keep slightly in advance OF the
needs.

connection with occupancies: Office
rooms, 4.239; businesses, $500; resi-
dences, 1864, and apartment suites,

tanned the following figures in this
class: Office rooms, 1909; businesses,
$500; residences, S6,5S3, and apart
ment suites, 1902.
In vacancies the recent report
shows: Office rooms, 631; businesses,
$40; residences, 1896, and apartment

lowing vacancies: Office rooms, $50;

The report announced today shows
the following under the heading of

dences, 428, and apartment suites,
218.

Mrs. Manton named the actress
as correspondent in her suit against
Kevitt William Manton, a second
rate actor and cueist. Witnesses
told of bursting into Miss Ram
beau's apartment and finding Mar

One woman who took part in the
raid testified that Miss Rambeau was
apparently naked in bed, although
the covers were drawn up to, but
not covering, her shoulders.
Manton wore underwear which Is

witness said. Whereupon tn ere was

Then Marjorie trIpped to the
stand.

was asked.

witness.
Miss Rambeau then went on TO
explain that all Mrs. Manton's sus-
picions were unfounded. Manton
was a paid cueist, ( ''lackey' was
the word her lawyer used and as
such he had been summoned to the
