will center there Only four parcels
of realty arc up for nubile miction two
of which will likely go oil under thu

There Is n general belief among real

fall will betlrm nud that good prices
will rule duritig tho fall winter and
early spring Capitalists whose funds
have been invested lu stocks and other
stcurltles of lluctuntlng values have at

real estate Is the safest property In
which to Invest end when the fall
business opens there will no
doubt bo keen competition for
Improved parcels the rent

Many lints improved tenement

Tho rumored rate war among tho
railroads l likely to turn out to bo llt
tlo more than a family quarrel Tho
lato advices from Now York say
Thcro was no important change lu
tho rales of passenger trallio to tho
West made by tho ticket brokers yes
terday It is understood that tho
evidence has been seemed of tho
sale of Chicago tickets at tho ofllecx
ut 117 against tho rate SIS fill
as heretofore maintained Tho brokers
aro selling Chicago tickets at 10 and
tho only p rtaiico attached to these
Irregularities on the part of tho West
Shoro is that they may bo used by the
old trunk lines as the Justification for
an open cut at their town olllce There
seemed to be somolhliig moving In
tho air in tho opinion ol shrewd
brokers because of tho unusual num
ber of spotters that were cnuvasslng
tho Rroadway otllces ill order to get nt
the lowest current sales This fact was
Interpreted ns indicating a possible
preparation by boiiio of the pool lines
lor more open lyaggreedvo feteps than
have yet been taken A gentleman
Informed as to CouunltHloncr Finks
opinion said It Is Incorroct to tay
that there is a passenger war There
is none The faet is simply that there
aro no regular rates and eoino linos
aro paying commissions while others
are not There uover has been
a ikkiI on passenger business
so far as a division of business
and settlement of balances under tho
division Is concerned Agreement
regarding rates etc have existed unci
none or tho old trunk lluea havo with
drawn from them but It Is tacitly un
derstood that the experiment of pay
ing commissions shall be tried until
the West Shore and Lackawanua ate
willing to accept a division and to
over relations with tho scnlpers Mr
Fink Is not lifting ids llngerut present
to end the trouble liecauso ho believes
that If the cutting goes ou long enough
the new trunk Hues will get so sick of
the situation that they will bo willing
to cooperate with the other Dues Ho
was confldent that at tlio proper time
the West Share and Lackawanna will
bo glad to accept the trunk lino agree
ments and thai the Grand Trunk will
consent to abandon Its old policy of
nijing commissions even while tho
American lines were not doing so
Therels no principle Involved In the
present cutting uud no dispute except
over the allowance of commissions
