A building loan of $36,000 was made by Abram Bachrach to
the Haase-Lippman Construction Co, on the property 53 to 57
Barrow st and 11) to 28 Commerce st, T3x7S, This sale was re¬
ported last week.

The Island Realty Co. acquired title to the property, 45 to 51
WQst 21st st, from Frederick Haas. The new owner of record
is a subsidiary company of the United States Realty and Im¬
provement Co.

The property 17 Minetta st was to have be'en sold at auction
by Bryan L,  Kennelly on Wednesday  last  but  at  the last mo¬
ment   the   defendants   satislied   the -judgment   and   transferr'ed.
the property to Emil Calamini,

A lis pendens was filed against the property at the northwest
corner of Fifth av and 2Gth st, 34.4x127,(5. This is the result of
foreclosure proceedings begun by Lewis B. Bachenheim against
Adelia D. Ireland and others.

The Ocean Accident and Guarantee Co. gave the Golden Hill
Building Co. a building loan of $150,000 on the property at the
northwest corner of William and John sts, where a 6-sty office
building is in the course of erection.

The firm of H. P. Simmons & W. C: McNaughton have taken
offices in the Hudson Terminal Building, 30 Church st, where
they will conduct a general real estate business, making the
renting and management of office buildings a specialty.

Foreclosure proceedings have been begun against the, prop¬
erty, 91 William st, 14.6x27.10. This property is located 74.4
ft. north of Maiden lane. William P. Dixon and others, execu¬
tors, are plaintiffs in the action and Marie Sonntag defendant.

100. This mortgage also covers all machinery and fixtures in
the building.    There is a prior mortgage of -$T(i2,000.

Watson & Johnson, of 3S Park row, report that business is
improving and tliat money for real estate purposes is plentiful.
Good applications for mortgages are hard to procure at the
present time. They consider the high interest rates as re¬
sponsible for this condition. So soon as lenders are willing to
place their money at O per cent, or better, the good propositions
will be forthcoming.

Title to the Antoinettes, a group of apartment houses witl^
frontages on Park av, 58th and 59th sts passed to the City R.eal
Estate Co. on July 3d. This property was offered at auction to

of Gun Hill road and White Plains road, and other properties
in the Wakefield section of the Bronx and in Westchester
County.

A. W. McLaughlin & Co., to meet the demands of their con¬
stantly growing business, have increased th'eir office facilities
by taking additional space in the American Exchange National
Bank Building, where they have been located for many years.
Another gratifying evidence of the prosperity of this old es¬
tablished concern is that during the long continued stringency
in the mortgage market they have not only cut no incomes but
have made several additions to their alr'eady large and efHcient
force.

The ministers, etc, of the Reform'ed Protestant Dutch Church
are the purchasers of the southwest corner of Park av and S3d
