THE NEW YORK TIMES. SUNDAY, MAY 9. r. In the Real Week's Business Involved Sale of Down Other la the value and Importaece of the properties Involved. Oast week yielded as Imposing a list of transaction as anj eimUar period, this year.

AU of those eecUons which have engaged the attention 9t the market recently Fourth Avef the Pennsylvania district, and Wwhf Ington Height witnessed the ticking of Important and whatever may of the outlook for Summer business. It la ay pant that there la a well-sustained In-; tereat in he better class of speculative fropertlea. I -v. it perhaps a dangerous practice to "raw conclusions as to. entire section from the-history of a -single property, but last week's sale of the northeast corner of Seventh Avenue and Thirty-third Street was none the less instructive.

It was the fourth sale of that property within six years the fourth sale on a purely speculative basis and tW fourth successive e'fort to estimate the ujtlmate value of the parcel. In it was sold at auction for $190,000 to a syndicate of operators. Nothing has been made public as to the price In last week deal beyond the fact that the seller has been holding the three little old buildings, or rather the ground under them, at $750,000. Not the leaV remarkable feature of this series of transactions Is that the last sale occa; stoned leas comment and less shaking or heads than did the first one at $180,000. Just aa the recent sale of the 10 corner on Fifth Avenue for $700,000 made less of a stir than did the- first sale of a Fifth Avenue lot for $200,000 ten years ago.

The real estate community baa to look without surprise upon anything loss lhan $200 a square foot for choice Fifth Avenue corners, and likewise, with the huge Pennsylvania station approaching completion, there has come some realisation of what prominent properties In the vicinity of that structure are going to be worth within a comparatively brief period. Within the week Fourth Avenua has fairly outdone projects have been launched and old ones have been enlarged. There wa another addHJott to the list of old hostleries that wUl soon be-turned over to the wreckers-the Belvedere, at Eighteenth 8treet. on the site of Which twelve-story building Is to be ready for tenants within eight roonttie. The -big.

enterprise, which bad its origin In the necessity of doing something the Parker Building rum, has expanded steadily un til. ace latest announcements, it will take In a Blot of about fifteen lots. At Twenty-Seventh nd iTwetylghth. Street, the Cooper-Hewitt Interests have decWed not to. do their work by halves and filed plans CUliaings c-hms entire block front.

And unless reuaois gossip la all wrong, there will be more Fourth 'Avenue' this week. th. -trooole Hotel 'property, at Broadway and Forty-second Street, will result In the erection of anew building on ano ay whleh recently undertook the reimprove-rnent of the Bryant Building Property, at Nassau and Liberty Streets. The most significant phase of the operaUons as Bltowlnr the enormous revenue deri-ved 4 from ground-floor space In the neighborhood of Times Square is that its promoters expect to get an adequate return from plot -of less, than two lots valued at over by improving It with a six-story building.

BUILDING? Rumor Concerning Largs Plot Just South of Exchange Place. A report was current yesterday that tha RIglander properties at 48 to S3 Broad Street, running through to New Street, had been sold, Jacob W. RIglander is row In Kurope, but eons said that there had been no sale of the properties. The plot la on the west side of Broad Street, Just south of the Edison BuIId-in, which changetl hands last week. On Broad Street, the Klgrlanaer boldinKS have a frontafce of about feet and on New Street a frontage of 40 feet.

Another version of the report was that a corporation Is about to be orranised, in which a prominent construction c6m-pany will be interested and which will take over the property and erect a new building oa th alte ,90 PER CENT. ON MORTGAGE. UnuauaPTer Provided for Sale of Bernhelmer Estate Lota. Extraordinary terma have beca announced In connection with an auction sale, to be. held by P.

Day on May 27. It appears that in settling up the affairs of the old Bernhelmer estate bo mo twenty lota were found in the vicinity of the 110th Street Station of the Ninth Avenua Elevated Road, which naa been in the family for more than half a century, and some of which were remnants of the old Lion Park tract. To dispose of these tha executors hava determined to offer to biaaera the privilege of allowing 90 per cenL. of purchase prices to remain on mortgage at 6 per cent, interest for one, two. or three years.

No terma such as these have ever before been offered in thauctlon room, and the sale will probably result in brisk competition among builders. Mr. ay'a special offerings on Tuesday will include a long list of Manhattan parcels, as well as two handsome country places on the New Jersey ocean front and property at Flushing. Corona, I I. Leading tha list in general interest, is the handsome residence 82 "West Seventy-second Street, a twenty-five-foot house containing eighteen rooms, formerly tho home of Ignats Boskowlts.

A number of tenementa and other investment properties will also be sold. The Mulry estate holdings on the east side appear again in Mr. Day'a. schedule for Thursday of this week. The same auctioneer wlil also wffer on Tuesday a one-half Interest in a plot of ten lots, with three 'and four-story JbuUd-ings.

extending through from Fifty-first to Fifty-second Street, west of Eleventh Avenue. SALE OF R1VERDALE LOTS. Hutchlna Property to be Offered at Auction Early Next Month. The Hutchlna property at RIverdale is to bo sold at auction by Bryan I Kennelly on June for the account of its recent purchaser. Being the first public offering of lots in that- section the sale will! probably attract wider attention among that large class of buyers who are always on the lookoat'.

for moderate-priced "property "available for improvement with small dwellings. The attraction' of the RIverdale section have long been famous, ut have only- recently become familiar to the average New yorker aa the result of the extension of tho Subway to Van Cortlandt Park. To-day this bit of real country within the city limits is accessible for a 5-cent fare, and is only three-quarters of an hour's ride from the downtown district. The lots to be sold, about 800 in number, are between 226th and 238th Streets, and are within five minutes' walk of tha Van Cortlandt Park Subway Station. Included in the sale will be the old mansion, known during late years as the Hutching house, but which was built nearly 100 years ago by the Van Cort-landts.

Fourth Avenue's Newest Dodd, Mead Co.s Proposed Building at Thirtieth Street rlts Probable New Trade Centre, No single fact in with the! movement toward the rehabilitation of Fourth Avenue has occasioned wider comment than that among the pioneers in Vis movement should be Dodd, Mead who were also tine of the first prominent concerns to Invade the business section of Fifth Avenue north, of Thirty-fourth Street ten or twelve I years ago. The an nouncement of tho purchase of a site at Fourth Avenue and! Thirtieth Street by that concern came as a genuine surprise to the real estate market, because, the firm was not only invading a new neighborhood, but was also removing itBelf some distance from the region where its own kindred lines of business have cen tred, j-Since the purchase; was made, however. i i jsi, M.

Tn a recent suit by Rudolph Eturenb -against Louis Spero for commission a leasehold the Jur the Cj Court rendered a verdict for tha brckr for The court set aside the erx. diet and dismissed the complaint, sj-tr. There is not sufficient proof in the to Jusllfy a finding that hia efforts duced the purchase. Tha mere tes'irnonC that after OefcnUajit became inoDer Z. ent and said he did not wish to sil plaintiff went from one to ths otw mentioning the! sale, of Ibe premises' iL each party upon his visits, does not si tain to the quality of proof required at i matter cf law in this class of cause." The case was- then taken to tho Ape! lata Term by Jacob Friedman, counsel the plaintiff.

He contended that tha evil dence was sufficient to Justify the vt-r diet, snd. furthermore, as the court in Its instructions to tha jury assumed th. sufficlancy of such proof wlthotit tlon being taken it was beyond its poner after the Jury- tendered verdict to it aside.

The purchasers of this property are said to be a well-knows amusement-promoting concern, and In-, dlcatlons are that the work of fUlinr la will be undertaken immediately and a pleasure resort established at an early date. Coincident with this snnouncement comes the news of unusual building no-' tivlty in both Corona and Flushing.

Tiis building traxies in these communities have let contracts for almost twelve months ahead, and even out-of-town concerns taken a hand in operations.
