It is a new edition of the law relating to buildings in the City of New York, ivith added matter, marginal notes and colored engravings to illustrate the subject. It contains the law limiting the height of dwelling-houses, also the existingMechanics'' Lien Law. This work is edited by William J. Fryer, Jr., whose original and well-thought-out comments give it a special value. Tlie volume will also contain a complete directory of architects in Netv York, Brooklyn, Jersey City, Newark and Yonkers. The book is handsomely bound in cloth, and is sold at the low price of seventy-Jive cents, by mail eighty-five cents. There is an honest difference of opinion as to the proposed amendments to the constitution of the Exchange. It is desirable that the number of directors should be increased. There is no objection to a gratuity fund, and ifc would be useful, perhaps, to have an arbitration committee with a legal status. But the pro- posal to do away withcumulativevoting is objectionable and will be earnestly opposed by many influential shareholders. So far no interest has beeninjured byjninority representation. It would not be wise to give the wholepower of the Exchange into the hands of a party which could control a baremajority of the shares. The capital stock is small, and it is inevitable that aring would soonget possession of the Liberty street institution were the cumulative vote abolished. There arenow 500share-holdingmembers, and any group of twenty-five or more can have their representative intlie Board of Direction. But withtheminorities' right swept away, 251 members could do as they pleasedwithout reference to the other 249, and as is inevitable in all such cases the 251 would be dominatedby a very few persons who would wield the whole power of the Exchange, thus transforming it into a veryclose corporation a result which does not seem to us at all desirable. Undoubtedly, under the present system, it is possible that aperson obnoxiousto the majority may be returned. But one or even three or four dissenting directors, while they cannot control the corporation, can expose if not prevent the carrying out of unwise or objectionable measures. The past has been anexciting week in all the markets. Stocks have had a tremendous tumble, and the grain, provision, cotton and coffee markets have allbeen weak. There has been an abnor- mal tightening of money, agreat part of which is due to manipu- lation. Our readers will bear witness that we pointedout a possi- bility of trouble towardsthe close of the year; but the bulls have beenso successful for two months past that they wereblind to all the signs of the times. This is a dull season for real estate, and the tornado in Wall street did not affect the Liberty street Exchange. Dealers inrealty are very confident as to the future, and predict a very large business when the spring seasonopens. The stock market will naturally be depressed for some time to come, but good securities ought to be a purchase for investors at the prevailing figures. As amatter of record we publish to-day the results of the four annual contests for directors of the Real Estate Exchange. It will be noticed that only five of the original members will be in the boardwhich is to serve during the coming year. Two have died,and the othershave retired, or have not been re-elected. This table shows the effect of cumulative voting, which is anovelty in the organization of corporationsin this country. Ifc mustbe con- fessed that all interests have a fair show under this scheme. The majority keeps control, as they should do, but the minority is always represented. Under the cumulative vote the Real Estate Exchange cannever become a close corporation. . The Herald is urging upon Congress the passing of appropria- tions tobuild aline of steamers, whichcould be used for conveying merchandise in peace times, whileavailable for commercedestroy- ers in the event of war. While our coasts are defenseless against anypower having an armored fleet we have no ships that could capturemerchant vessels by way of reprisal incase of war. The ownershipof ten or fifteen of the swiftest steam vessels on the ocean would put usin a positionto retaliate uponany naval power which wouldthreaten our seacoast. Then these vessels could be contracted out for carryingmerchandise to the principal ports of the Old World. This would also give employment to our now idle naval officers. We haverepeatedly made this suggestion in these columns, and the Herald shows great good sense in taking this important matter up. It hasevidently madeahit, for there seems to have beenmany responses to its articles on this subject. Still there is nohope that our presentDemocraticCongress will do any- thing of the kind. The break in the stock market was attributed by some of the foolishbears last week to the danger of the passage of the Inter- State Commerce Bill. As amatter of fact, the day on which the general government will undertake some control of the railway system of the country will be an auspiciousone for all who are interested in the securities of our transportation lines. While a national railroad commission would naturally look out for the interest of the public, it wouldalso guard the rights of property. The voluntary pooling arrangementsnow in operation will come to an end whenever scanty crops decrease the business of the trans- portation companies. There is little or no competition in rates whentheroads have all they can do, but the most sacred engage- ments are at an end when business falls off. While the govern- ment wouldprevent excessive rates or unjust discriminationsit would alsohold corporationsto their agreements with each other. There will be an assurance of the value of railroadproperty the moment it passes under the oversight and protection of the repre- sentatives of the nation. The Sun newspaper alsois doing a good work ia demanding of Congress that our seacoast be defended by guns, forts, torpedos and ships— noneof which wehave at present. Unfortunately, the Stm has trainedwith that faction of the Democraticparty which opposes all appropriations for internal' or seacoast improvements. The great Northwest wants the waters of theMississippito be joined to theLakes by theproposed HennepinCanal. But the Sun and the Democraticeconomists howl "job" whenever this great national improvement is suggested. A clear waterwayfrom theMississippi by way of the Lakes to theAtlantic coast would benefit the East as well as the Northwest, and more especially the commerce of New York. But Randall, Holman, and their supporters oppose the HennepinCanal and all similarimprovements ; hence the Western Congressmen, equallyshortsightedand unpatriotic, voteagainst all appropriations to benefit the Eastern seaports.

Our Prophetic Department.The Growth of Our Cities. Observer— On November 27th, Sir Oracle, you threw out a

danger signal as to what was likely to occur in the stock market.Your words were:

"Idon'tknow where it will comefrom, but in

allmy bonesIfeelthere is troubleaheadinthe 'street.'" Then,

inyourconversationwithme last week, you statedat somelengthyour reasons forbelieving thatDecemberwouldbeas stormyfor thespeculators as the ocean is for ships. Then, editorially,InoticeTheRecord and Guide has beenwarning speculative dealers totakein sail. The semi-panic last week, then, was not unexpected

Itis difficult torealizetherapidstridesinpopulation and wealthwhichourbusinesscentres inallpartsof the country are making.There is oneexamplewhichmayperhapsgivesomeidea of4the won-derfulprogressof manyof our cities. In1880,Duluth,Minnesota,hadapopulationof 3,500 persons; itnowhas over 30,000. In1869therewerenotadozen houses on the present site and not over ahundredpersons. When Duluth built its first grain elevator itwaslookedupon asbeing an act of great temerity. It now hasovertwenty elevators, which will accommodate over 12,000,000bushelsof wheat. At a fire the other day nearly half a milliondollars'worth of propertywasdestroyed in thiscity of yesterday.It is not so many years ago when Congressman Proctor Knottpokedfunat what he called this "Zenith city of the unsaltedseas." There wouldbe nopoint inthat jokenow.

byyou?SirOracle—Iam free to confess that it was more of a crash

thanIanticipated. Ifeltquitesure the marketwould gooff, butIsupposedit would be better sustained upon serious breaks. Itlooks to me as if the natural tendency of things towardlowerprices was intensified by the manipulation of some powerfuloperators.Butthisis only one case among many. Thegrowthof St.Paul,

Minneapolis,KansasCity, Denver,Omaha and twentyotherplaceswhichmight benamedis also equally marvellous. We are wit-nessingto-day anemigrationto the West andNorthwest greaterthananyknowntoour history. But this passing of populationover the Mississippiand the Missouri is not checkingthegrowthofourCentralandEasternStates. The old hivesof populationcon-tinue toswarm. NewYorkthis year will addmore to its popula-tion than any previous twelve months in its history, and theadditiontoournumbers and wealth willbelarger next year thanthis.

Observer— There is a current impression in the"street

"that

Jay Gould is oncemore in the market— this timeas a bear. Ifindthis impressiontoprevailinoffices whichought to know whatheis doing. His own stocks were the first to weaken. They werecertainlynot supported.

Sir O.—Ihave alwaysbelieved thatJay Gould washonest whenhe announcedlast year that he had left the "street," asaspecu-lator, for good; nordidanything occur in the spring, summer orearly fall to make me think Iwas mistaken. But the myste-rious New England deal certainly looked like Jay Gould.We knowhis relations with Cyrus W. Field, and of thelatter'sanimosity for Clarke & Co. Well, Clarke has beenturned out;houses known tohavehad intimaterelationswithJayGould wereownersof thestock whenthe booksclosed, and the majorityof thenewdirectorshaveasuspiciously Gouldlook. It^seems as certainas anything that theNew York &New England will in some wayconnect withthe NewYork& Northernand the elevatedsystemsof this city. The "street"has reason tobelievethat Mr. Gould isonce more in the market. It is very certain that some of thehouses verynear to him have been bearish for some time.

But, of course, the phenomenal growth is in the West, and,strangely enough, the only city which seems tosuffer is Chicago.Of course that enterprising city continues to grow, and growrapidly, but thecountry tributary toit is being circumscribed. Ithas lost its monopoly of the grain traffic, and it soon will benolonger the great lumber or provision market. Armour and thepowerfulbeef packersthreatentochangetheir business to localitiesnearerwhere the herds aregrown. In the future the proportionof grain and dressed meat sent directly East from the rivals ofChicago will become greater and greater. Yet, of course, theprestige of Chicago is established, and thereis nodanger that itwill retrograde. It will become richer and morepopulous as itgrows older;but it no longer has a monopoly of the food andbuilding products whichgaveit the firststartand whichhasmadeit thecity it is,

Observer— But itseems theopenmovements in themarketwereby AddisonCammack, and theheaviestsellerswerethe successorsof Charles Woerishoffer.

Sir O.— Well,Ihave foryearsbelieved that Cammack and thenow dead greatGermanbear were always Gould's brokers. Theboldness of the operationsof thesemenin the past wasdue to thismighty brainand moneypowerbehind them. When Gould wasworking withCammack onthebear side he probably appearedto

be buying stocks through Conner andthe brokers that directlyrepresentedhim.

Make Indians Landowners.Our subscribers who deal in realestate should be interestedin

bringing about the ownership of separate parcels of landby theremaining AmericanIndians.

The Indians should be given their land in severalty.

Observer— What makesyou think that this fallinprices wasinagreatpart manipulated?

SirO.— Well, thetightness of themoneymarket for one thing.

A bullmarketwhenstocksarebeingcarried calls forthe employ-mentof funds, andrates naturally stiffen. But_a bear campaignwhenaprocessof liquidation releases money ought to make iteasy. But when the semi-panic was raging, Tuesday andWednes-day last,money wasbidup tohigh figures, and thestringency hascontinuedeversince. Banks told theircustomers that theycouldnot lend. The fact is thatGould,or some oneas potentas he, wentto the leading banksand said:

"We want to borrow all your

availablefunds. Here is a check for the interest up to JanuaryIst. We maynothaveoccasionto take themoneybutof thebank;if wedo,wewill give you abundance of collateral." Thebanks,alwayslookingout forthemselvesandnot theircustomers,acceptedtheseoffers, andtherewasnomoneyfor thosewhowished to tradein the

"street."

Give theIndianhis farm, put him on it, andbid him make hisownliving, andprotecthim in so doing. That thiscanbe done isshown by actual results in Minnesota, which we quote fromBishopWhipple: Observer— lsitnot monstrous thatour banks, whicharepraised

so highly by our daily press, should lend themselves to theseschemes toruinpeoplewhoarecarrying stocks?

Twentyyearsago webeganwitha small number of Indians at WhiteEarth reservation. They were wild folk,used only to savage life. Nowthere are1,800peoplelivinglike civilized beings. They havehousesbuiltby themselves. Theyare self-supporting. It is an orderly, law-abiding,peaceful community. Inreligionthey areabout equally dividedbetween

ancesof any kind,for they aresimply money lenders, outof whichoccupation they make a profit. When they had a practicalmonopoly of thecurrency they engineeredcurrency famines everyyear inorder toget extravagantrates for theirloans. Thesedisturb-ancescame regularly every spring and fall when money wasinthemost demand. The $346,000,000 greenbacks first interferedwiththis monopoly, and still later the silver certificates. When thebanksapply thescrews in the loanmarket there is a promptcalluponthe governmenttocome to therescue. The savageattacksuponsilver and thesilver certificatesby thebanksand theirnews-paperorgans is because this new species of currency has lessenedthepowers of the banks toengineer these scoops on themerchantsand the tradersin the various exchanges.

TheSupremeCourtof Ohiohas decidedthatalicenselawis consti-tutional, andthe leading distillers and saloon-keepersaffect to bepleasedwith the judgment, as they say acontinuance of the freeselling of liquor wouldresult inaprohibitorylaw. This is a wiseconclusion. There is every reasonwhy the municipalitiesshouldreceive a revenuefrom thesale of strong drink. In this city weShouldhave anincome of at least $2,000,000 per annum from thissource, which wouldin so far relieve thepresent burdens on realestate. The Legislature of this State, aboutto convene,ought topass a stringent high license law. If it does not, so much theworse for the liquor dealers; for, failing to do so,,public indig-nation will demanda prohibitory law unless the liquor interestsare willing tobear theirshareof necessary taxation.

inview of the factthat so few of thempay expanses. Outside ofHarper'sandthe Century itis doubtfulwhetherany of these monthly publicationsreturn whatmoney is spent upon them. The Atlantic has been undermany managements,buthasneverbeenmorethana doubtfulsuccess. Thenumerousother monthlies are simply advertisements for the publisherswhoissue them. The PrincetonReview deserves honorable mention inthatitsconductorshave tried to give high-class articles. Its orthodoxyandconservatism has,however,prevented ifc from being popular. Someofthe numbers of the North American Review doubtless sell well, but itdoes not carry weight, as its management is so sensational. All kindsofexperimentsarebeing triedtocatch thepublic favor. LippincoWs nowpublishesone complete story by some popular author in addition to itsusual miscellany. It is to beseenhow this willstrike thestory-readingpublic. The illustratedmagazineshave theadvantage, butthey are verycostly, and the competitionbetween them, which will be intensified nowthat Scribner's is in the field, will be verysharp.

nearly threehundredlots, frontingon Third avenue and the new street,parallel with Third avenue, which skirts the park on its western side,knownupon themap as Fulton avenue,still remain, and these lots, ifc issaid, are tobe offered for sale. It is believed that they will bring veryhighprices. The Suburban road will pass through theircentre along theentire line, while the lots frontingonFulton avenuewill fronfc [also uponthepark. A doublelot, therefore, extending from Third avenue toFultonavenue, would be doubly useful. Ifc could be utilized at one end for adwelling andafc the other end forbusiness purposes, with easy communica-tionback andforth. This maynot be thought much of a recommendationina city wheremenhavebeen trained tobelieve that oneof the conditionsofbeing isanintervalof severalmiles between business places and homes;but itis very suggestive at least of the comfortable old-fashioned dayswhen men sold merchandise on the ground floor, and lived with theirfamilies in theupper sfcories. Menfamiliar withthe real estate movementin theneighborhood arepredicting that the Bathgate property willbringfrom$3,000 to £6,000 per lot. This may or may not prove a too rose-colored anticipation. Ifc must be remembered, however, that Thirdavenue is quite solidlyimprovedalmost to thesouthern boundary of theCrotonaPark reservation,and with the completion of theSuburban roadtheproperty willcertainly be on the line of leastresistance.

The North End.Ifaman trainedat guessing were asked todesignate thesectionofthecity

northof the mouthof thoHarlem Riverwhich would befirst eligible forthe construction of thebetter class of dwellings he would be likely toselect the belt which crosses the cityat about One Hundredand Seventy-fifthstreet, reachingfromthe Morris Dock on theHarlem to theneighbor-hoodof theBronx. Variouscauses combine tomake this point desirable.First, the transit facilities are unrivaled, much of the more attractiveterritory lyingbetween theNorthernRailroad and theHarlemroad,acces-sible either from one or the other road after only a few minutes' walk.Second, the coming CrotonaPark divides the section in the middle, andtheneighborhoodof thispark wouldnaturally come first in the order ofimprovement. Third, the territory is farenough removed from the waterfront, eitherby distance or elevation, tosecure itagainst aninvasion fromfactories or warehouses. Like Columbia Heights, in Brooklyn,a portionof thisterritory may lookdownuponcommercewithoutbeing incommodedby itspresence, and theremainder will be just far enough away to hearits echoes withoutbeingataninconvenientdistance.

Over the groundto the eastward of the ground selected forCrotona Parkthe tide of improvementhas notyet begun to flow. But the territory pos-sesses everyqualification to invitesettlement, and building sites are com-paratively cheap. It shouldunquestionably soon begin to respond to themovement initsimmediate neighborhood on the westernside of thepark,for itis easily accessible,and the ground may be cheaply prepared forimprovement.

Perhaps,however, even the most experienced guesser would not reachconclusions so readilywere ifcnot that thesigns of the times already justifyexpectations of an early activity. Averitableboomin building seems tohave startedin thislocality,notso large, itis true,as the wesfc side boom,but equally promising, anddestined, seemingly, to ba of as much longerdurationas the space tobe covered is greater. New buildings upon thehill tops, thehill sidesandin the valleysare springing up on everyhand;and transfers arefrequent andmade at good figures.

A caveat must be filed just here, however, which will cover the entiredistrict under consideration. Buildingmovements donot always go wherethey ought togo. Somuch dependsupon the enterprise of individualsthatthe most profound prophets are liable to beknockedout,so to speak,bysomepreposterousperson who makes a wilderness to blossom into gardens,while his moreapathetic neighborsare restingupon their supposed advan-tages. For thepresent itcan onlybe said thatthe latitude of Tremont inthenew wardshas the leadand thebrightest promise. He wouldbe a boldman, however, who wouldassertpositively that itwillmaintain itslead.The most noticeablepoint forimprovementatthis time is onthe hill just

backof the Tremont stationof the Harlem road,known as Mount Hope.This is one of theelevationsmarkedin the green colors whichindicateanaltitudeof 200feet above tide wateron the topographical maps of thenewwards;but lest fche reader should find himself gasping for breath at thethought of fche ascentifc will be well to say that the grade of the Harlemroads and the streets rises continually fromMott Haven to Tremont atthe rate of about twenty-fivefeet to themile, and as the distance is threemiles the ascentto the summit of Mount Hope,ifc will be seen,is notgreat.Then, again, the side of the hill itself is not precipitous,but slopes grad-uallyupwardfrom the railway,giving to the streets thatlead to thesummitaneasygrade. Arrivingat the summit the pedestrianfinds thathe is notoutof breath. Hefinds, too, that he isnot theretostay. The elevation iscrownedbyalevel table land, along which, north and south, runs Morrisavenue, but beyond the avenue it slopes downwardagain to the level ofthe valley where runs Central avenua on its way to the racesat JeromePark. BeyondCentral avenueagain rises the

"ridge." Itisat this point,

reachedbyBurnside avenuearoundthenorthernbaseof Mount Hope, thatthe depressed street and tunnel to theHarlem River has beenprojected.

Complaint is justly made in this section of the cityonaccount of thedefective sewerage. The great needis for the completion of a few mainsewerswith whichconnections mayba madefromlateral streets as fast asrequired.

Delinquent Property-holders.DESCRIPTION OF THE METHODS EMPLOYED BY THE CITY TO MAKE THEM

PAY UP

One of the most ingenious and effective administrative methods of thecitygovernment is the schemeemployedinpersuadingdelinquentproperty-owners to pay up their arrears of taxes and Croton waterrates. Eachyear a. catalogue of all pieces of city property which are in arrears oftaxes or water rates is made out and extensively circulated;and, duenotice of the impending danger having been servedupon the respectiveowners,the property is then sold at public auction— that is to say, suchpieces as are not redeemed in the meantime, for the publication of thecatalogueand the evidencethat theirproperty is reaLy indanger exercisesa verysalutaryeffectupon thedelinquents. So vigorous is this effect thatin theinterval between the issuing of the list and the date of the sale aboutone-half of the encumbered property is redeemed by its owners on pay-ment of all arrears and interest. The property remainingunredeemed isthenputupat auction in the order of itslisting in the catalogue.

But thecurrent topic refers to the improvements completed, under wayandprojected,onthe summitof MountHope. Oneyearago ifcwasabarrenhill of magnificent, prospects, if a hill can be called barren which iscrowned bya farm house, anappleorchard and other farm equipments.Itwas atleast barren of all urban or suburban improvements. Now itistheseat of an elegant new village, not large, ifc is true, but containingnearly twenty QueenAnne cottages. These cottages range in price from$3,000 to$15,000. They standin groups or singly, inamanner toproduceavery picturesqueeffect; and they areall the productof the past season.But the coming yearpromises tobe even moreprolific in results than thepast year. Twenty-two new cottages, so far as known, are to be con-structed in the spring. Thecontract for twelve, to be built at a cost of$3,500 each, hasbeen awardedto H.Mandeville & Son, theForty-seventhstreetstairbuilders. The projector is S. Danzig. These cottages, also,are tobe in the oldEnglish style, which seemsto be now almost the onlyfashion tolerated for detached dwellings, and will be constructed withmarble mantle3andall other features tocorrespond.

The sale, orrather sales (for thereis generally a series of sales),attractsa motleygathering,small businessmen andpeople of limited meansbeinginamajority. The auctioneer, who is generally an officer of the Bureauof Assessments,and Arrears, proceeds tooffer the various lotsofpropertyin the order of the wards in which they are situated and in their orderof rotation on the list. The catalogue number of each pieceofpropertyis called off, and by reference to the list at hand would-be buyers canascertain the location of the property,name of owner, and the amount ofthe arrears. In bidding uponthe lots thus offered, the bidder names aterm of yearsinstead of making a cash bid,and the person bidding thelowest term ofyears receives a lease to the property provided the ownerdoes notredeem ifc as specified by law. Two years and one-half is thetime assignedby law in which the owner can redeem his property, theterms of redemption being the paymentof all arrears and legalcharges,andinterest at the rateof14per cent, onthemoney paidby the purchaserfrom the date of sale. If this time expires without such payment, thepurchaser is given a formallease by the city to theproperty for the termof yearsfor whichhebidifcoff.

With so much building onMount Hopeifc is tobe presumed that con-veyancing is alsoactive. Thisis indeedthe fact;and theproperty trans-ferred brings goodprices. An orchard containing eighteen lots recentlysold for $18,000, and the land usually goes at $1,000 to $1,500 per lotThe property largely belongs toMr.Lewis G.Morris, andto the policy ofthis gentleman,atonce liberal and careful in givinggood termsandin Theconditionof his purchaseis thathe shallpayupall arrearsuponhis

purchase withinterest at 7percent, from the time when the severalassess-ments felldue, together with the various expenses of the advertisement ofthesale and of the saleitself.

stipulating on the character of the improvements tobe made in advance,is attributedmuch of thenew building activity. Mr. Morris canhold theproperty as longas anyman whenitis not the intention of the purchaserto improve,but when animprovementreachinga satisfactory standard isprojected thesite maybe obtaineduponeasy terms.Itis not uponMount Hope alone, however, that this section of the

new wards shows signs of a building movement of promising propor-tion-. Over on the ridge opposite Mount Hope, near the Morris Dockstation of the Northern Railroad, seven new buildings of superior designare now under construction. The cheapest of these dwellings is beingconstructed afc a cosfc of $6,000, and themore expensive will cost severaltimes thatamount. On the low ground, between the Harlem road andCrotonaPark, also, new buildings meet the eye at every turn; and anevent whichis tooccur in the spring is likely to give a great impulse tothebuilding movementin thatvery desirable locality. This is thesale oftheBathgateestate. CrotonaPark, which is to cover a triangular pieceof elevatedgroundlyingbetweenme old Boston road and Third avenueabovetheir pointof junction, ismade up largely frem this property; but

Land Transfer Reform.A veryuseful brochure on thetransfer of land has been writtenand

distributedby Dwight H. Olmstead, No. 50 Wall street. Although theprincipaltopic discussed is the scientific registration and indexing of landrecords, whichincludes anargument showing the superiority ofblock overlotindexing,yet, incidentally, Mr. Olmstead gives many facts andquota-tions covering the whole questionof LandTransferReform. Thepressureupon our columns prevents U3 from making any lengthy extracts fromthis carefully-writtenand well-digested pamphlet. Itincludes a bibliog-raphyof all the recent works, articles and reports on the Land Transferquestion. Any onewho wishes tounderstand this matter will herefindalltheauthorities he maywish toconsult. Of course the bulk of these haveappearedin foreignpublications. Indeeditis very clear, from the interestin thisquestionabroad, that Great Britain, at any rate, will anticipateanyoftheUnitedStates inso reformingits landlawsas to makeregistra-tionand thepassing of titles easy,cheap andcertain: Inhis list of arti-cles Mr.Olmstead omits,however, theveryexhaustive contribution on thePrussian LandLawsmadein thesecolumns by Mr. M.Fast.

the owners,

The whole object of th9advertisement audsale of property in arrears istourge the owners tocancel their indebtedness. And the success of themeasure fully justifies theassertion that the schemeis alike ingenious andeffective.Inglancing over this year's catalogue, which includes all property in

arrears for taxesof1880, 1881and1882, and Crotonwater rates for 1879,1880 and1881, a large number of bulkheads along the river fronts arenoticeable, thecorporation almost invariablybeing recorded as the delin-quentin thecase. As amatter of fact, the corporationis only the owner,and the encumbrances should properly rest upon the lessees. Bufc thenamesofthese persons are frequently unknown(thoughwhyitshould besoit is difficult to explain), and hence the assessments are charged to the

Of course the difficultyin the wayin this country is the legalprofession,and theofficials whoprofit so largelybyourbarbarous landlaws. Accord-ing toMr. Olmstead, in1881, $1,750,000 waspaid to lawyers for searchingtitles, fees for the officials during the sametime amountedto$400,000 more.Of course thelarger business of1886 wouldshowaheavier assessment forlegaland official work,and ifc is this powerful monetary interest whichwillpreventany reforminour lawsuntil the realestateowninganddeal-ingpublic are thoroughly aroused onthe subject. The lawyers themselvesarebeginning toact in this matter,as they see that the Title Guaranteecompanies are takingaway theirbusiness. But then these powerful cor-porations willbeanother obstruction to a reform system of transfers, astherewould benouse for themif a system such as that which prevails inPrussia, New Zealand, orNew South Wales wasenforced in this country.Inthose communities there are no need for searches, and practically thegovernment confirms the title by its system of registration.

corporation,Anothernoticeablepointin the catalogue is the fact that against several

lots the word "unknown" appears in the column headed "to whomassessed."

These lots are fought exceedingly shy of by speculators,as the lawrequiresformal notice tobe served upon the owner before a lease canbe obtained. If the owner is unknownandcannotbe found no lease canbe obtained, andhence thepurchaseris apt to lose his money.

Including these two last classes of property, 4,219 separate lots, eithervacant orimproved,are listed in this year's catalogue. Of this numbernearly 3,000 have been redeemed by their owners.

Proceedingin the order of wards, A. S. Cady,Collector of AssessmentsandClerk ofArrears, has gone through the unredeemed property in theelevendown-townwards of the city. Atlast Saturday's sale in the roomof Part111. of the SuperiorCourt,in theCourtHousebuilding, theSeventh,Eighth,Ninth,Tenth andEleventh Wards were finished up inside of anhour's work. From fifty to sixty persons were in attendance andthebidding wasfairly active. One or twopiecesof property were sold for atermof1,000years,but themajority of lotswent afc fromnineteento thirtyyears. Another sale wasbe heldinthe County building yesterday noon,atwhichallunredeemedpropertyinthe Thirteenth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth,Sixteenth, Seventeenth, Eighteenth,Twentieth and Twenty-first Wardswasdisposed of.

Mr. Olmstead is rather severe on the lawyers. The motto onhis title-page is fromLordHobhouse, whosaid:"Thepresent shacklesuponlandarenot theresult of anynational deliberation or decision,but arepureinventionsof laivyers." Andaperusal of his work gives the impressionthat the legalprofession is responsible for the chaotic condition of the lawsaffecting the titles of real estate.

The Dukeof Marlboroughis justnow attractinga gooddealof attentionin England a? a co-respondentin theLady Colin Campbelldivorcesuit Heisamanof highliteraryattainments andhasmade a study of thisquestionoflandtransfer reform. The followingextractsfrom anarticlepublishedby theDukein theFortnightly Review of April,1885, will be read withinterest:

A week fromFriday theproperty located in the Twelfth andNineteenthWards will be pufc up, and on succeeding Fridays the Twenty-second,Twenty-third andTwenty-fourthWards will receiveattention. The salesthis yearhavebeenfully as strong as those of preceding years and theentire catalogued list of property will probably be closed out inless timethaneverbefore.

"Inevery country the theory of the landlaws hasdependedon the factthat landwasnever intended tobe dealt; withbyfree commerceandbarter,andits sale and exchange have at all times been surrounded with legaldifficulties of everydescription. LordCairns' Act of 1882 deals a deathblow atthis doctrine, andrecognizes oncefor all the importanceofrender-inglandnegotiable in thehands of limited owners. It requires but onestep moreto free the land from the grip of the law and to render ifc asnegotiableas other forms of wealth."An Up-town Bridge Over East River.

Referring to the complicated methods of English conveyancing, thearticle proceeds tosay:"Itcanhardly be wonderedat that, with such a system, a fall in the

valueof landproduces adeadlock in the landmarket. Iwillask anymanof business wherehis trade would go to in England if his business washampered andhinderedby this mode of treatment. Of course in formertimes ifc wasnevercontemplated that landshouldbe sold atall. Itwas in.the spirit of things intended that itshould remain entailed in families for-ever. LordCairns' Acthas revolutionized the fundamental idea of anagricultural aristocracy bygivinglife ownerspower tosell to whom theyplease,andhe hasbeen forced todothis bythe condition of the times;_ hehas not, however,taken the furtherabsolutely necessary stepsofrenderingthe landsalable by makingits transfer feasible.n

Dr. Rainey onlyawait3this action toplaoe "his bonds upon the market,havingalready prepared for their negotiation in England, with the provisothat Congressionalsanction of theproposedbridge shouldbe obtained.

Entering fche city at Seventy-seventhstreet ifc was to terminateat Thirdavenue,and was to be capable of sustaining a liveloadof1,500pounds tothe running foot.

The writer of the article proposes the following decisive remedy forthe difficulty:"Ihave said that LordCairns' Acthasprovidedbetimes fora commer-

According to therevisedplans the bridge willcross the city ator nearSixtiethstreet,and will have two termini in this city, one at the GrandCentralDepot afc Forty-second street,and the other afc the FourthavenuetunnelatEightiethstreet. There willbe a station extending from SecondavenuetoThirdavenue,and twostations afc the Long Island terminus inLong IslandCity. Fromthis latter termination a double track roadwillextenddirectly to the Grand CentralDepot; anda double track road fromtheLongIsland terminus, west of Calvary Cemetery, toBrooklyn, is alsoproposed. These roads willform the long-needed link between the rail-road systems of themain land and those of Long Island; and with theold East River Bridge for passengers and the new bridge for railroadtrains, freight and produce teams, the insular character of Long Islandbids fair tosoondisappear. The naturalandinevitable result of the newbridge willbe to greatly increase the value of property in Long IslandCityand vicinity, anditmaynot be many decades before Brooklyn willceasetohaveamonopoly of the manufacturing and commercial interestsof theisland. The site selected for the entrance of the bridge into thiscity is chosen with an eye to the rapid advance of business toward theHarlem.

The Improvement of Seventy-second Street. churches of the different denominations, goodmarkets and thestores ofathrivingbusiness avenuearerightathand, whilethe cross streetsarereallyvery handsome and fashionable for residence. Seventy-second street,protected as it will be from rough traffic and kept in order by theParkCommissioners, elegantlybuilt upand withallthe supremacy thathas everbeen claimed for itfully recognized, willsoon be whollyoccupiedby solidowners, who willnot, under anyordinary circumstances, think of offeringany property fronting on it for sale.

In the process of development and growth of a city it often happensthat buyers andbuilders neglect one or more important avenues for aconsiderable time, because, though they recognize the fact that theproperty isvaluable, they do not know,after all,howmuch higher pricesthey couldafford topay forit than for other lots in theneighborhood, orwhat kind of improvementitwouldbe best tomake, if theyhadit. Thisis the casewithEighth avenueaboveFifty-ninthstreet,to-day,andtosomeextent withRiversideDrive. The lots on both these streetsare doubtlessintrinsically very valuable, while real estateoperatorsdo notseem to knowexactly what todo with them; butas soonas a few courageouspeople stepin andset thefashion of improvement they will have followers enough,and the day of uncertainty andhesitation will have gone by.

The move made by Charles Buck & Co. inpurchasing aplot atNinthavenueandSeventy-second street,andpreparing tobuilduponitatanout-lay ofa quarterofamillion, hasbeen talkedaboutinrealestatecircles witha great deal of interest, onaccountnot only of theimportance of thepro-jectedimprovement,but of the character of the firm as long-establishedeast side buildersof large capital andinfluence. The views and actions ofthe firm are known to be generally conservativerather than speculative,andits operationshave been in quarters whichwerebeyond dispute first-class. They wouldnotbe likely togo into anynew andunformed district,even thoughit were a verypromising one, and take chancesasto the sur-roundings thatmight arise and all therisksof suchamovement. Theirrecent action is therefore regarded as an important recognition of theestablished status of the west side asa first-class residence andbusinessquarter,andpeople donot hesitate toname one or two other leading eastsidebuilding firms as likely soon to follow them, though nothing at all isknownas to their intentions. It is a littlelike the case of a brilliant andgracefulyoungmatron who has had themisfortune to be something of aparvenue,whenitbecomes known that oneor twoof theveteran leadersof society have accepted invitations to her next assembly, and the New-combs and the Oldcombs andall thepeople whohaveshowna little of thecold shoulder are ready toswarm abouther. Recent indications have allshownthatthe west side isappreciated at last, andisbecomingequal toanypart ofthe city for fashionable residences.

Nobody isin doubt, to-day, as to the value of lots on West Seventy-second street, where aplotof four lots was latelysold for $105,000,andnouncertainty prevails withregard to the kind of building that is suited tothe street. Yet theimprovementof this street wasdelayed, fora long time,after thebuildingof a row of housesby the Clark estategave animpulseto improvementbothon Seventy-thirdstreet and the streetsbelowSeventy-second street. Builders who hesitated then,now wonder that theydid notforeseethe importance of Seventy-second as an elegant residencestreet,and improve their opportunity. It is only another illustration of theprovoking difference between foresight and "hindsight." Those whobought inrecent years now find themselves in possession of property ofgreatly increasedvalueonone of the choicest streetsin the city,every footof whichissure tobe elegantly improved,and where prices are establishedaboutasfirmly as thebed-rock on which thebuildings stand.

They are four storieshigh, withbasements and cellars, and22 feet wide.

The roomsandhalls arehandsome, lightandspacious,and the arrangement shows the ideas of an experiencedandconservativebuilder, who is not tooready to adopt newandexperimentalplansfor thedivision of interior space; but, the floors being large, has given rooms ofgenerous size, arranged, for themostpart, in a simple and well-tried planfor convenience, cheerfulness and comfort. The parlor floorsare finishedin mahogany, with some stong contrasts in white and gold in the trim,the floors above in cherry and ash and the basement in ash. The stair-case is mahogany.

The ideasthathave influenced the firm maybe compared to the principle that waterwill find its level. Various causes have longretarded inprovement on thewest side, and these have latelybeenremoved. He believes that populationand wealth will flowinto thestreets west of the Park just as they haveinto those east of it,and without any injuryto the east side. While recog-nizing all the differentcauses which havegiven new life to the west side,Mr. Buck considersthe elevated road as much themost important,and theresidents will have thebenefit of apleasanter line of transit, andone whichis more pleasantly accessible from their dwellings, than people havewhowalk from their fashionable east-side streets to the Third avenue ele-vatedroad.

COURT OP APPEALS AGAINST THE CABLE COMPANY.—Large silver card-cases, which were the pride of our grandmothers,

havecomeback again. Oneof the cryingneeds of NewYork city at thepresent time isaddi-tional street railroad facilities. Property-owners along theproposedroutesof the several embryonic companies may interpose violent objections,existingrailroad corporations maycreate all sorts of legal impediments,andcitizens of extreme conservative views maydecry theproposedenter-priseongeneralprinciples ;but; the vast majorityof the city'spopulationwill nevertheless eagerly support and indorse any and all legitimateschemes which promise to remedy the existing deficiency in intramuralcommunication. When the Manhattan roads were first erected it wasfondly imagined that their facilities wouldbe ample for years tocome; butwith therapid increaseof thecity's population the fallacyof this supposi-tion became apparent. To-day these roads are manifestly incapable offurnishing sufficient accommodations to their patrons during the busyhours of the day; and each day thousands of persons whohavepaid thefare which presumably entitles them to seats areobliged tostandduringtheir entire trip. Evensanguine Col. F.K. Hamadmits that the extremelimit of theelevatedroads' carrying capacity is 700,000passengersperday;andseveral times within the last twomonthsnearly 600,000 passengershavebeen carried ondays whenthere were nospecial attractions to induce anextraordinary traffic. With the adventof the elevatedroads themediumof theslowand tedious horse-cars withall their possibilities of delaysandstoppages have become exceedinglyunpopular for other thanshort trips;andhence public attention is rapidly becoming concentrated on thepossi-bilities of streetcars operatedby steamorelectric power.

The General Term of the Supreme Court,however, withheldits concurrencewith this report,and the matter was taken to the Court ofAppeals. After nearly two years'delay andinaction the Railroad Com-mittee of theBoard of Aldermen, to whomMayorEdson's commissioners'reporthadbeen referred, presented its report to the Board,March2, 1886.The committee concurred with the report of the commissioners, and theBoard formally approved the reportof its committee.

Officers of the company say that they are backed by sufficient capitalto complete their entire project, aud that all that now prevents theirimmediately beginning work is the tardiness of the Court of Appeals.As mightbe expected, the surface roads now in operationalong or neartheir proposed routes violently oppose their project, and someof themare already discussing the question of superseding horse-power bysome mechanical motors. The Third Avenue Companyhas beenthemostactive in this direction, andaftercarefulinvestigation of the cablesystemandpractical experimenting withiton theTenth avenueand One HundredandTwenty-fifthstreet lines, hasdecided toput itin operationon itsmainline onThirdavenueand theBowery. President Lyon says that work onthenew system will probably be begunnextspring, and that cars willnodoubtbe runningby cabletraction early in the summer. The change ofpower will involve an expense of about $1,500,000. Robert W. Tailer,William Remsen andSylvanus S.Rikerhave beenappointed a committeeto inspect themethods of operating cablesystems inother cities andreportto theBoardof Directors.

The contest for the Boardof Directors naturally served to draw thelarger vote,463 oufcof a total of500 members votingfor directors.

The Real Estate Exchange and Auction Room (Limited).THE ANNUAL MEETING.

to*2.215Despite the disagreeable weatherlast Monday the members of the Real

Estate Exchange and Auction Room (Limited) turned out in force towitness the exciting contest which promised to mark the fourth annualelection of theExchange. Aliberalsupply of camp-stools converted thefloorof the auction-room into ahall witha seatingcapacity of200 or more,and when PresidentH. H. Cammanncalled themeeting to order, shortlyafter oneo'clock, two-thirds of the seating accommodation were occupied.Secretary GeorgeH. Scofct read the minutes of the last annual meeting,December 4,1885, and the special meetingsof April1andOctober 12,1836,and after their acceptance by the meeting President Cammann made abrief but comprehensivestatementof the present statusoftheExchange.Remarking that every room and office in the building was atpresentoccupied, Mr.Cammann proceeded fcodemonstrate thepresentpolicy of theExchangeinregard toa declarationof dividends. "By referring to theannualreport," he said, "you will see thatthe total receipts of last yearhavebeen about$42,000— 523,000 fromtherentals of offices and$14,000 forthebooths in the auctionroom. To runthebuildingonthemosteconomicalbasisrequires an annualexpenditureof over $9,000;State and city taxesamount to over $8,600 more, and -the balance remains for the currentexpanses of the Exchange and dividends. Out of this sum the expensesof the Bureau of Information, clerk hire, and all otherrunning expensesmust be defrayed. Even though all these outlays were removed thebalance would only warrant a 4 % dividend;and if that dividend waspaid all outside operations of the Exchange would have fco ceaseand theExchange wouldbe nothing else thana public auction-room. Thepresentpolicy of the management is to extendthe operations of the Exchangeas far as possible; and the old-time statement that we ought to have500 annual members is no exaggerated estimate ofour possibilities,if theExchange is made as useful and advantageous to its members as itmightbe. Butto secureannualmembers wemusthavesomething toattractthem. The Bureau of Information,asat present conducted,is one ofthemost valuable features of our organization. During the last yearoverone-third of the totalmembershipof theExchange has made use of thisbureau, andhundreds of dollars havebeen saved tomembers who wishedto look up the standing of certain pieces of property. We are graduallyestablishing a post-office by means of the publication of the list of4 wantsandoffers,' and now have members in Philadelphia,Washington,Chicagoandother leading cities. Applications for membershiphavebeenreceived from residents of London and Toronto, and brokers generallyreport that theadvantage ofbeing a member of theNewYork RealEstateExchangeismore andmore recognized. The time should come and willcome whena broker whoannouncesthat he is amember of this Exchangewill find thatthis simple announcement willprovean excellent credentialin almost any outside city."

The *opposite the figure of any candidate's vote indicates that theperson whose nameit follows was elected a director in the year named,under whose columnthe * appears.

A + oppositea name indicates that the person to whose name ifc isaffixed was a regular candidate and was defeated.

The gentlemenwho were defeatedou the regular ticket must attributethe result to the operationof the cumulative vote,as there wasnopersonalobjection to any of them. Those elected in their place happened to havemore friends among the members whowere willing to mass votesin theirfavor.

The electionof Richard V.Harnett as director was a matter of course.No oneperson did somuch towards the organization of the Exchange asdid this gentleman. And no Board of Directors would seem completeunless he were init.

Among the retiring members Mr. S. F. Jayne will be very greatlymissed in the deliberations of the board. He attended faithfully to hisofficial duties, rarely missing ameeting,and was oneof thelaboringoarswhen there was work to be done. He declined re-election on account ofpress of private business.

Atthe close of thepresident'sremarks, Mr. John T. Nagle asked for anexplanationof theitem of $110.07 in the annual report,charged to "legis-lative" expanses. Mr. Cammann explained that it represented theexpenses of the legislativecommittee, inpursuance of their duty of secur-ing advance informatioaof the doings of the Assembly as affecting theinterests of theExchangeandits members. Mr. Nagle then inquiredwhyevery memberof the Exchangecouldn't be amember of this committee,bub was silencedbyPresident Cammann's jocularsuggestion, that such acommittee wouldbea littleunwieldly. Onformalmotion themeetingthentookarecessand the polls were thrown open. Afc4 o'clock the polls wereclosed and thecount of the vote was begun. Itwasnearly 9 o'clock beforethe result was announced, and in th9meantimemuch speculationas totheresult was indulged in by the brokers onthe floor,in consequence of theactive candidacy of severalgentlemennot onthe regular ticket.

The general sentiment islargelyin favor of passing the proposedlaws." MydearSib— Youappear toentertainthe opinion thatthepassage ofanactextinguishing the right; of dower andcurtesy inlands, even here-after acquiredbyahusband or wifenow married, mightbe invalid.

"As anychange facilitating or making safer the conveyance of realestate chieflyinterests or affects thosenowmarried, this questionwouldseemto beof sufficient importance fco merit some consideration.

"The prohibition bearinguponthis matter is contained in the FederalConstitution andisin these words:

'No Stateshall passany law impairing

theobligation of contract.'"Can thislanguage be interpreted as forbidding the Legislature of a

State from enacting laws affecting, prospectively, private contracts?That is to say, affecting the future operation or validity of contractsalready existing ?"

It wouldcertainly seemnot, forotherwise thegreat mass of whatmaybe called progressive or remedial legislation would benull, as scarcely acivil law is passed whichdoes not modify, impair or uproot the continu-ingforceof subsisting contracts.

manought toprovide forhis familyand wife— it is the most binding andsacred duty entaileduponhim. No manwill shirk that duty;but thereare men, so called, who wouldonly be too gladto dispose of all they own,bothrealandpersonal,andleavebothwile and family indestitution;but,asIsaid before, youcan'tprevent rascalityby the enactment of laws.

"Pardonme for trespassing a second time upon your patience. Ihave

done soin thehope that whatare so crudelyand imperfectlyhere presentedasideas naturallyoccurring to the unprofessional mind, may elicit othercommunications fromthose qualified to speak with authority and weightupon thisinteresting constitutional question. Jas. Rtjfus Smith."

"The better way,inmy opinion, is to abolish both the dower and the

tenancy by the curtesy in oneshortact tike this, viz.:From andafter thepassage of this act the common lawandall actspassed in relation theretooramendatory thereofrelating to the right of dower inlands of a deceasedpersonor therightof thetenancy bythe curtesyisherebyabolished.

How abouta womanowningpropertyin herownrightbefore marriagewhois coaxedinto deed-ingit toherhusband— thehusband provestobe"a scoundrel, sellsitoutandskipsaway withanother women?

"Whilst Iapproveof theacts aboveproposed,Ido not think theygo far

enough,andrespectfully submit the followingfor your consideration:"Any widow of ahusband to whom sheshall have been married beforethe day this act shall takeeffect, andto whomdower shall not have beenassigned, or who shall not haveacceptedof the provisionsof law relatingtodower which were ineffectthe day before this act shall take effect, shallfor the space of ninety days,after the deathof her husband,have the optionof accepting andclaimingthebenefit of the provision in section one ofthis act. Providedalways she manifests suchoption by declaring the sameinaninstrument in writingunder her handand seal, to be acknowledgedorproved— in theusualform and recorded as a conveyance,etc."As to the act to empowera husband, etc.,Ithink it should be made toapply 'to transferof real andpersonalestate.''"Itwould avoidmanyquestions which constantly arise, andyetleave thequestion offraudopen."

Please accept these suggestions in the truefriendly spirit in whichtheyare offered. Henry A. Mott.""

A prudent mansaves forhis wife and family;and it oftenhappens, withno intent to dowrong,he may wishtoput the title to allhis property inhis wife's name.Itis shorterandmoredirect thana will and far less expensive. But letmaturedeliberation be hadbefoi _any changesare made.

F. R.Houghton.""Ist.Iamnot in favor of theentire abolition of thewife's rightof dower

inrealestate;Iwould,however, favor limiting the right to suchas givesuitablenotice (insome appropriate way to be designated by statute) oftheir claim, so that bona fidepurchasers maybe apprised ofthe right, iikeany other lien, andnot be subject to therisks incident to thepresent stateof thelaw.

"t2d. As to tenancy by the curtesy,Iamnot so clear. Inone view,

while Iwould restrict dower1would enlarge curtesy. The two chiefobjections to theretention of common lawdower, viz.:tne annoyance andinconvenience of requiring the wife's signature in all transfer, and thedifficulty sometimes of ascertaining who is a man's lawful wife (arisingfromthenon-requirementin lawof a formal and registered ceremony ofmarriage),arenot applicable in the case of curtesy. The husband is nobcompelled tosign the wife's conveyance,nor isitcommon for two men toclaim tobe thehusband of thesame dead woman. Butcurtesyisrestrictedto thehusband whosewife hasgivenbirth to a living child. So that if amanoutof his savings buysahouse, and (as is frequently done)puts thetitle in thenameof his wife,andshouldhave no children byher, and shedies intestate, theheirs ofthe wife,however distant, take the whole estate,and thehusband canbe turnedout of his ownhome, andhasnomorerightor title to theproperty which his money has purchased than the merest;stranger.

and wifeis adesirable one. SamsonLachman.""Iconcur with all your views, excepting the first. In that Ialmost

agree with you, but think if a dower right were entirelycut offinsomecases it wouldbecome veryhardonawife. F. Zittel.""Chicago,111."

Notbeingaresidentof your State,Ihesitate toexpress an opiniononthe questions referred to.

"My observationsin thisStatesatisfy me that the rights of dower ofthehusband and wife in the estate of the other (estate by curtesy wasabolished here yearsago) are inalmost all cases of very little value andcreate a great deal of annoyance to ownersanddealers. This is especiallytrue in thiscounty, where therecords weredestroyed inthe great Chicagofire, and where wehave nothingtorely onexcept the briefand incompleteextracts from those.records made by the anti-fire abstract firms, and whichleaveunsettled in thousands of transfers that standard objection to a titleknown as a 'possible dower.'"Ihope youwillsucceed inbringingabout thereform youaim at.

J.H. VanVlissengen."

"Inthe above,as inall cases of intestacyofa deceased wife,thehusband'srights shouldbe retained, whether the couple haveissue or not.".On the other hand, to give thehusbandof a deceased intestate wife thesame share inher realas in herpersonal estate wouldseem to be fair andjust, and topractically answer all requirements."3d. As to direct conveyances betweenhusband and wife,Ibelieve nowthey arepretty generally sustained inequity. Anenactment, however, toput thematter beyond all question would be desirable.

"4th. Asfoyour proposedacts, lamin favorof allthree,witha repealingsection ineach as toinconsistent legislation. Theaddition suggestedabove,requiring the widow to file notice ofclaim to entitle herto dower would,Ithink, tendconsiderably to the securityof titles, and wouldnot imperiltherights of the widow. Inthis age of steam and electricity- one year wouldbe sufficient toenable the widow to file therequirednotice ineverycountyof theStateif necessary. Joseph C.Levi."

"Inmyopinionthe lawsrelating todowerandcurtesyshouldbe changed."Ido not approveof theproposedacts abolishingdower andcurtesy.

"If the absolute fee is given the widow in lieu of dower the risks andliabilities of a conveyanceraregreatly increased as a widow or her heirsmightassert aninterest inproperty at any time after the deathof thehusband, andonly proof of anadversepossession for twenty years woulddefeat the claim. Inconnection withthis discussion itis interesting to note two decisions

thathaveonly lately beenhandeddownby the Court ofAppeals. One ofthem, Hinchcliffe against Shea,shows how much trouble isperpetuated bythis rightof dower. Ifc decides that after a wife has once joined in amortgage tocutoffher dower right,if themortgage shouldbe defeatedbya saleof thehusband's interest on execution under a judgment obtainedbefore the dateof themortgage, herdower rightcannotbeafterward fore-closed under that;mortgage in whichshe joined. The other one is in theMatter of Ensign. Itdecides that a man cannot leave more than onewidow entitled to a distributiveshare of his personal estate; that is, if awife obtainadivorceuponthe groundof her husband's wrong,andheafter-wardsmarryagain, the divorced wifeis notentitled toa share of his per-sonal estate. Many peoplehaveheretofore thought thatshe was;that whenshe wasdivorced for his fault she didnot loseher rightsinhis property.Youknow a divorce canbe obtainedagainst aman in this State,and thedecree forbidhim to marry,yet he cango into some adjoining State andget married, and thelatter marriage will beheld goodhere.

"Thewidow orher heirs wouldstandin thepositionof a co-tenant withthe owner of the propertyand the adversepossession would be difficult; toestablish.

"As the law nowstandsa widow's claim for dower is barred simply byfchelapse of twentyyearsfromthe deathof the husband and no adversepossession needbe established."Under theactproposed theclaimofthe widow or her heirs would befor anundividedinterest in the property,the value of which propertywouldprobably be greatlyincreased after the lapse of time, and perhaps,asisnowoften the case,before the widowassertsherrights."

Itis now wellsettled that under thepresent lawltheclaim fordowercanbe only for the valueof one-third of thepropertyat the timeof the aliena-tionbythehusbandor hisestate."

The proposedactprovides thatthewidow shall havethe same right inreal estate of thehusbandleft athis death as ifit were personalproperty.Now as thehusbandmaymakea will disposing of allhis personalpiopertyit would seemthat under theproposed acthemightdo thesame of hisrealestateand thuscut off all rightof his wife therein."

The proposed actabolishing curtesy is also open to the objection thatitimposes additionalduty andrisk upon the conveyancer in ascertaininganddeciding whois the legalhusband."

Itis always comparatively easy to determine who are the heirs of aperson, but very often difficult to ascertain who is the legal husband orwife. ' According to the vice-presidentof the American Iron and Steel Associa-

tion, Mr. Swank, theproduction of steel rails in the present year will begreater thaninanyprecedingyear. Prices aregoodandtendingupwardsandallbranches of the ironandsteel industries are active at firm prices.Railroadbuildingshows the same activityand isat oncethe causeand theconsequence of themarkedimprovement in general business.

new inspection rules.The regular monthly meeting of the New York Lumber Trade Associ-

ationwasheldduring thepast week. Reports from the variouscommit-tees wereinencouraging form, and thepresentation of about twenty appli-cations for membershipgave substantial evidenceof thesteady growthofthe institution. Business of considerable importance was transacted.Amongother resolutions wasone emphasizing the desire of the associationtoembrace withinits membership all branchesof the lumber trade whenrepresentedby parties inrecognized good standing, and this willprobablyset at rest theinsinuations a few disaffected parties have endeavored tocirculate. A committee from theBuilding Material Exchange, suggestingtho propriety of an amalgamation of the two bodies, was also given ahearing,anda committee of conference appointed toreportat asubsequentmeeting. Itwill be remembered thatThe Recordhasonmorethan oneoccasion suggested probableadvantages tobe securedbythe lumber tradebecomingassociated withdealers in other lines of buildingmaterial, andthe subject shouldbe carefully considered beforea finaldecision is reached.The principal action at themeeting, however, was thereading andunani-mous adoption of a set of grading and inspection rules [for hard-woods, which, withthe indorsement of so many of the leading operators,maybe accepted as settinga standardupon whichoperations may in futurebe based.

Wants and Offers at the Exchange.The interest in thebrokers' meetings continues active,and thepublica-

tion of the list of "Wants" and "Offers," by making known the oppor-tunities for negotiation, is doing much to increase the interest in themeetings. Last Tuesday's meeting was particularly well attended, anunusually largenumberof brokers gathering todiscuss therecent electionandits results.

Real Estate Department.The business afc the Exchange for the past week shows a still further

reduction in volume as compared with that of the weeks immediatelypre.ceding. In the way of private sales, sales of private dwellings wereespecially few, while for avenue property and vacant lots the demandwas better. It will naturallybe expectedthat themarket will be ratheidull till after the first of the new year. The amount of businesspendingin brokers' offices is, however, large, and there are no indications ofanything more than a lull lasting for a weekor two. Some leadingbrokers express strong confidence ia a good business to come after NewYear's. George F.Johnsonhas sold toCharles Buck & Co. seven lots on the

The negotiations for the purchase of the landnow occupied by theMadison Square Garden, as exclusivelynotedinlast week'snumberof TheRecord and Guide, are not yet completed, though the bargain isprac-ticallyclosed. A gentleman whois largely interested in the schemesaid,yesterday, thatthough the papers have not yefc been signed nor thepur-chaseprice paidover,thepresentowners of thepropertyhaveaccepted theoffer of $1,000,000 made them by the syndicate, and barringunforseenobstacles the transaction willsoon beclosed. "Incase theproperty shouldchange hauds," he added, " a stockcompany willbe organized witha capi-talization representing the actual costof theproperty and the expense ofreplacing thepresent buildings witha substantial and ornamental edifice.The subscriptionlist for thestock of thiscompany willbe thrownopen to thepublic, and no charges of a monopolistic 'grab business' can be madeagainst us. Fui'ther, as the total capitalization will only equal the actualexpenditure,our stock will be absolutely free from

'water,' andeveryowner of a dollar's worthof stock can feel that his certificate representsanactual valueof property. As regards the style of building which wepropose to erect on the property, no definite planshaveyet beenprepared.One thing,however,is certain— the structurewillnot be dignified withanyFrench title, such as

'Bon March. 'or

'Palais d'lndustrie,' but will be

known by thenameby which the property is now known throughout thissection of the country— The Madison Square Garden. The building willprobably be fire-proof throughout, willhave rows of commodious storesoneach exterior side, and though substantial andattractiveinappearance,will notbebuilt for show, but forpractical use. The part to bearrangedfor exhibitionpurposes wepropose toadapt to NewYork's long-felt needfor ahall where flower shows, horse shows, bench shows and large ballscansecuresatisfactory accommodations. The stores and exhibition hallwillbe rentedat as lowa figure as willbe consistent; with their location,and the enterprisefrom first to lastwill be conducted on sound businessprinciples, with a view to securing a fair dividend on the stockof thecompany."

A correspondent asks the Tribune to aid some of its readers who havenot agreedin a discussionrespecting the comparative amount of businessannually transacted inPhiladelphiaand Chicago. The Western city hasgrownwithmarvelous rapidity of late years, and the volume ofits busi-ness is enormous;butithas not yet taken the second place among Amer-icancities either in population or in business. Philadelphia-

has grownfromnearly 800,000 people in1880 to considerably morethan 900000 at thepresent time; andChicago has increased from500,000 to fully 700 000 Ourreaders willfindthat the bank clearings of the two cities from' week toweek-maintain aboutthe same ratio as their population Thus fo" lastW6ek 25«S? 1PhAa clea"Ss were $76,698,000 and the Chicago clearingswere $.4,689,000. Averaging severaldifferent weeks wefind the ratio ofclearings tobe as 6to5. The clearings would indicate that Chicago doesa somewhatlarger business relatively to population thanPhiladelphia Ofcourse theclearinghouse returns arenot conclusive as td thematter aboutwhichinquiryismade,butthey are the bestsingle indication that can bekennu.Vhicfg,°. ls a "uch greater transportation and distributing: point;than Philadelphia.

Afctheir nextmeetingthe Boardof Education willconsider theadvisability of making thepurchase.

Therehas been a marked increasein the exports from Southern portsand a correspondingmarkeddecrease in the exports fromNorthernports.The total exports fromall ports for the ten months ended October 31sfcwere valued at $555,294,857, against $546,523,792 for the correspondingtime of 1885, an increase this yearof $8,700,000; while the increase at theSouthern ports ;vas over$23,000,000, showing that there wasaheavy fallingoffat theNorthernports. Baltimore leads the Southern ports with afainof over $8,000,000, whileNew Orleans was second withan increase of7,800,000. AtCharleston the'increase was $1,000,000, Galveston$2 700 000Norfolk $800,000, .Savannah $1,100,000, and Yorktown, which includesNewportNews, over $3,000,000. In New York there was a decrease ofnearly $16,000,000; atPhiladelphiaa decrease of $3,800,000, and at Port-land $1,200,000, or a total falling off at these three ports of $21 000000against anincrease at fche Southernports ofover $23,000,000 These figures'are suggestive of the growing commercial importance of the Southernports, andindicate that incommerce as well as in industrial matters theSouthismaking goodprogress.— Mobile (Ala.)

LUMBER.— A journey among the yards does notreveal anythingparticularlynew in thegeneral con-ditions of the lumber trade. Deliveriesare prettyfullinsome cases, andraallybusy dealersmaybe found,buta great dealof the movement is onoldtrades,andnew entries areprincipally for small lots as takenagainst early and somewhat pressingnecessity. That,however,isbynomeansanunseasonable condition ofaffairs and has no special influence to create com-plaintexcept among that peculiar class of operatorswho think theyhavenomarket atall unless thereisa continuous "boom" The supplies available noware fair,and ordinaryselections canbemade withoutmuchdifficulty,butstill, ina greatmany cases, deal-ers' stocks show the influence of the raid thathasbeen made upon them, and especially of varietiesthat at the moment it is most difficult to replace.This,ofcourse,insuresprettygenerallysteady pricesall the waythrough the market, and should buyersgain any realadvantage it would most likely bethrough some specialand temporary influence. Theslaughterofthe woodscontinues with vigor in mostlocalities and there is a present prospectof a.'a^eelog crop, but it is expected apparently that themills will want all they can cut, and the loggersgo ah^ad with every appearance of confidence.

Eastern Sprucelosps noneof the formerpremisingfeatures in the reports given by mostreceivers, andthe market appears tobeingenerallysoundcondition.Indeed itseems to be thought thata greatdeallargerquantityofstock than now offering could be placedwithout difficulty,and at full rates,as dealers arecommencing to runlow onassortments and toinquireabout the chances forreplenishing. Th^ present pro-ductat the Eastward is moderateand largelyunderengasementasusualwhen the steam mills onlyareat work andshippingfacilities poor.

The Chicago Timberman has the followingreview orders, and since that time theyhave been engagedin cancelling them and fighting forcars. Ifc is a fairwinter's business, with prices firm and collectionsreported unusually good for the season of theyear. The demand for special bills morethankeepspace with the supply or rather the cutting capacityof the few mills which can be operated duringthe winter. Several concerns in Wisconsin, notablythe EauClaire Lumber Company, whohavearrangedfor winter sawing at their Thorp mill, somethingnew in theirhistory,haveresolvedtogo into a win-ter business. That anyconcentratedaction has evenbeenmoved for betterprices weare not advised. Itisa sadcommentaryon the sagacityof the few whocanindulgein the luxuryof sawing pine timber inthe winter in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Job lotsare nearly played out in the Northwest, althoughmany stocksare so fardepleted that they can onlybesold in very small lots, yet holders are asking fulllists on everything. From 10 to 16 inches of snowcovers the whole pine region,and the loggers aredoiDe asplendidbusiness, notwithstandingthere is alack of frostin the swamps. New crews are beingsent out dailyand therewill beall the logscut whichthe mills cansaw putin this winter,with a big sur-plusof oldlogs. Prices remain firm in the market atSt.PaulandMinneapolis.

of the situationThe closeof the fall seasonofactive shipments find

the wholesale trade oftbe countryinexcellent shape.Althoughit cannot show anamountofbusiness trans-acted in theseasonpassedthatsurpassesanypreviousrecord, therehasbeen demand enough to move km-berwith reasonable promptness,and toleave distrib-utorswithoutaburdenofstock to carry over. Theyear aboutclosinghas notbeen withoutitsdrawbacksand unfavorable features, but. withal, the lumbertradehas managedto comecreditably throughit,andto place itself in position to take advantage of anyimprovedconditions whichmay developin thefuture.Inrespect to supply,for the time which intervenesbetweenthis and the receiptand dryingof the earlierproductionof the mills next year, lumber dealers areremarkablywell fixed. There is nothing which cancomein to exertmore than a local influence of a de-moralizingnature. There isconsiderable lumber onbandatmill points,butnotmorethanthereisreason'tobelievewillbe wantedaboutas soonasit canbemadeavailable. Thebulkof the mill reservecannot beginto bereached muchbefore April,and bythat time,inall probability,therewill bea placefor it,if theearlyspring trade amounts to anything like what is ex-pected. Thenew cut maybe more difficult to place,thoughwith the prospect of improvedbusinesscondi-tions inall parts of the country,there is in view thepossibility that in layingout foranextraordinary logharvestmanufacturers have not overrated the con-sumingabilityof the comingyear. Itis certainly tobe hoped they havenot.

NAILS.— The demand isspasmodic and rarely runsup into any great volume, as buyersstill feel disin-clined to anticipate the future. Indeed buyers arereallyaffordingno special assistance to themarket atpresent, and the strengthening has to come almostwholly from, the selling side. Tobring productionunder closer control is one of the objective points,and anotheris to prevent,as far as possible, compe-tition between the various sections of the countrywhere the principal manufacturing centres arelocated. At the moment values stand atabout$2.00®2.10per kegfor lOd. to 60d.from store,and appear tobe quite firmas we close.

A slight tendency is observable toward higherprices for lumber, but it develps slowly,andthereremains a good deal of uncertainty whether itwillresult inadecided change. Inthe Lake Erie region,the lumbermenattheirmeeting in Toledo, on Wed-nesday, advanced th* price onsome of the qualitiesof lumber most in demand $1, which is inlinewiththe earlier action of the tradeat Buffaloand Tona-wanda. The holdings of lumber in thatdistrict arenot heavy, and the stocks at the mill points fromwhich suppliesare drawn do not threaten to bea dis-turbingelement with theopeningofnavigation in the■>pring. The dealers there have reason to believe,therefore, that they can maintain the higherrateswhich they have decided to adopt. No doubt thisaction on theirpart, willhavesomewhat of a bracingeffect on the market atotherpoints. The feelingisgrowingin Chicagothst lumber shouldsell for moremoney,in viewof theshortstock held, andina quiet«-ay the matter is serious'y discussed hythe trade.Thereare indications that towardtbe middle orlatterpart of January steps will be takentowarda slightadvance,which,if the outlook forspringtradeis thengood,willinall probabilitybeeffected. Itis regardedasuseless to make theattemptnow,or until the win-terseasonofdullpsttrade is prettywellspent, thouehit is generally felt thatlumber isworth,and shouldbring,morethan it is sellingfor. Its value, in mar-ket,is somu<houtof proportionto the current ratespaidforpinestumpagethat somechange to bringthepricesoftherawandmanufactured material nearertogetheris gettingto bea necessity That the cost ofstanding timber will notbereduced to conformto "" helowprice obtainedfor lumber isuniversallyconceded

PAINTS, OILS, ETC.— The outlet offered hasbeenmoderate anduncertain, except thatverysmall quan"tities of stock satisfied most buyers,and the selec-tion wasmadealmost entirely from positively staplearticles; buyers, too, wereclose aad careful over thematter of cost, and an fffort to increase theline ofprices would evidently havebeen fruitless. Whole-saleoperators and jobbers,however,seem tofeel con-fident that after the turnof the yearmatters mustimprove,and rome predictquitealivelysort of trade.Linseed Oil sells very fairly on most regularoutlets,»nd is quotedsteady at 37@38c. for Western and 39®40c. for City.

The Timberman has the following significant re-marksupon the subjectof Hemlock

Michigan operators are evidently cutting-hemlocktimber wherever they can find it. In current reportsofindividual operationsin the woods,it is very com-mon tosee itstated that one,two,threeor fivemillionfeet ofhemlock timber will beputin duringthe win-ter, and these small lots,here and there,will agere-gatenomeanamount for nextseason's cutting. Thelumber makers areevidently findingout thatthere ismoney in hemlock, and that they cannot afford tooverlook it,or leave it behindthem when they arecuttingtheirpine timber. A few of the farthest-see-ingoperators havebeen aware of this for some time,and very quietly they have been puttingin smallquantitiesof this wood, which they have sawed andsold ata very goodprice and a round profit. Thereisa very fair market for hemlock in Chicago,andduring the past season alarge quantity has foundbuyer,here. Thereis noreason whya large propor-tion ofhemlock piece stuffshouldnotbefirst clear,asthegood aswell asthepoor logs,as it is now manu-factured, goin together. Really,therefore, thequalityofhemlock dimension is better than white pine,andasit driesout light,makingadesirableshipping lum-ber,andas it iswellsuited to the purposes for whichsuchstock isused, there is no reason why it shouldnotcomeinto market onitsmerits, andsell for whatit is. Thatit will do so,ana very soon,i.an alto-gethersafe prediction.

AtMuskegon the amount in pile is 100,000,000 feet, orabout thesameas was pi'.edthere last year. Of thisamount about30,000,000 issold. InSaginawValley itis variously estimated that thestock left overon dockamounts to240,0f,0,000to 329,000,000 feet. At Cheboy-gan,Mich.,thereis 30,000,000feet inpile. At Manisteethestock is well sold up. Oneconcern atMenomineehas35,000.000feet onhand. Mill concerns there thathaveyards in thiscity havelittle at the mills, whiletheir stockshere havebeenreduced tothe minimumSuchisparticularlytrueof oneof the leadingMenom-inee companies. Reports from lakeside mill points

are asyet very meager,but it is probable that theaggregateof output left over at the mills does notgreatlydiffer fromthatof lastyear. At some pointsthe supplyislessthan thatof lastyear, whileatotbersitisabout the same or larger. The demand duringthe latterpartofOctober andthrough November wasnot quiteas sharpat Lake Michigan markets as wasearlierexpected,and prices sagged a little, so thattbe transferenceofstocks from the mills to the yardswas, in a measure, checked. This has tended toslightlymore accumulation at the mills thanwouldhavebeen the caseif therehad been abulgeinsteadofa slightshrinkingofihemarket late in theseasonBut stocks in the yards are not excessive— rathersmaller thanthey werelast year— so tr>at the trade isconsidered inahealthyandhopeful condition.
