The second quarter and the six months showing are unfavorable, the latter especially so, In that It Indicates a progressive decrease each year since 1913. Reports to Bradstreet's Journal from 121 cities of the United States show a total of 19,837 permits issued in the month of June this year, with an estimated value of $62,836,378, a decrease of 7.7 per cent, in the number of permits and of 20.4 per cent In value from June a year ago. The latter month.

It might be recalled, saw a gain of 3 per cent, over June, 1913. With the exception of the New England States, every group of cities showed a decrease In permits and all showed a falling off In values from June a year ago, while 78 out of 121 cities, or about two-thirds of all, showed a reduction In expenditure from that month.

The problem of restoring the real rental Income of the average three- etory and basement dwelling of old-1 fashioned style, which in the past six or eight years has become a drug on the real estate market, because of the great changes that have taken place in construction, and the popularity of apartment house living, has been solved by Frank Tyler, the well known real estate broker, who has taken the dwelling, 630 Clinton avenue, for Its owner, and Is remodeling it In such a way as to produce a gross rental of $1,892 a year for the property, which will double the rental of the property In Its previous condition. That the experimental stage of Mr. Tyler's scheme Is passed, and that this plan may be followed in the case of hundreds of similar houses in Brooklyn with similar results. Is the opinion of a number of prominent real estate brokers who have inspected the I lane of reconstruction. Work is progressing on the dwelling, and the finished model will be ready within the next month or two.

The picture of the house undergoing the change Is shown herewith. The front stoop has been removed, and workmen are busy on the Interior. The basement and parlor floors will constitute duplex apartments, with separate entrances. The entire transformation will cost less than 15,000. This will be Interesting news to the many owners of this style of dwelling, who are constantly complaining that they cannot rent or sell such property, and that every day their marketability decreases.

It is hinted by several brokers that property owners should d7l Sumner A oof. necaftre mt XM Tompelne Avenue. RRI'ITTABLR BROKBRI RLIQIBLFJ FOR MF.MBF.RSIIIP. montn ror the duplex section. For the second floor east, $28 a month; for the second floor west, $26 a month; for the third floor east.

Want Modification of Tenement Bouse Law. At present there Is a well organized movement among real estate brokers, builders and architects, proposing that the tenement law be so modified or changed as to permit the building of three-family houses, In a way to make them profitable and this can only be done, it Is contended, by a change in the regulations of the Tenement House Department. Mr.

Tyler Is acting on one of the committees back of the movement. The tenement house committee of the Charities Organization has "very serious objection to the proposal to convert hundreds of thousands of old dwelling houses into tenement houses Nnrthweatern 15 j.ict a.

In the first half of last year from 1913, and the latter In turn showed a decrease of 2.6 per cent, from 1912.

Thus, the half year's building, from the confessedly partial returns here available, seems likely to he the smallest recorded In any first six months since 1911. Increaee. The record of building expenditures at leading American cities reporting monthly, quarterly and yearly from January, 1913, down to and Including June, 1915, shows the ebb and flow In the building Industry in the past months, as follows: Chanite, 1.0. 1914. 191.

This will lie of great help In suburban building. The code also allows the use of fireproof wood Instead of metal trim.

These codes have passed the Board of Aldermen and now only await the signature of the Mayor to become laws. They represent a great Improvement on the old code and are largely the result of conferences and revisions In which the Real Kstate Board and other organizations took part with Kuilolph 1.

"Could these three-story houses be turned into three-family dwellings they would rent readily for an average of $35 to $40 per floor per month after an expenditure probably of from $2,000 to $3,000 each.

"In the old houses there Is a high parlor ceiling and lower bedroom ceiling. The tenement house law requires that the ceiling on each floor mu.it be nine feet In height.

Many of the bedroom floors are only eight feet or eight feet six inches in height. The cost of making a change Is prohibitive."

In making a plea some time ago for a change In the tenement house law F. J.

"It Is estimated that 60 per cent, would be added to the value of 25,000 houses, by such a change," declared the builder.

It makes little difference whether the house is of the finest construction.

This afternoon the champion will meet Francis T. Hunter of Cornell for the title. Lovibond played consistent tennis in defeating the lengthy O'Neale, and as a result he is generally picked to retain his title.

After the Seventh Regiment star had taken the first set with comparative ease at 6 1, O'Neale awoke, and the second set was one of the most brilliant seen on the Bronx courts this season. It was a deuce set, and went to 7 6 before the champion won "the victory.

McDonald had. however, been on even terms with Gil at the third by reason of the latter' taking a 7 on the 427-yard second. Nichols had the lead by himself six times, McDonald twice and Hagen not once. Singularly enough the three were In a triple tie, on only one hole, the thirty-third, or fifteenth.
