He intends to occupy it this winter, and will therefore only partially carry out plans, which, when completed, will make this Tesidence well adapted for the social requirements of Washington life.

It will be of frame, Painted n contrasting colors, and will bave spa- clous verandahs. The house when completed will Le an architectural gem. Mr. C. H. Read, Jr., 1s the architect. SUBURBAN IMPROVEMENTS. The activity in suburban property, especially in the northwest section of the city, has assumed Such proportions that 1t now includes almost the entire belt between Rock creek and the 7th street road. The heirsof the late George S. Lovitt are having Kalorama Heights, at the head of Conrec- ticut avenue, surveyed with the Intention of sub- dividing the and and placing it on the market in the fal. This tract of land, tozether with Washington Heights, the old’ Columbian University grounds and Columbia Heights, com- prise the entire stretch of high land overlooxing the northwestern section of the city, with the ex- ception of the land lying between i5th and 19:h ‘streets, and with this latter exception the entire tract ts subdivided and on the market. Those In- terested in this property report that there 1s a ood demand for sites and that many purchases ave Deen made with the view of erecting resi- dences, They, however, think that if the streets Were extended and car lines run out the improve- ments would be made much more rapidly. The lack Of sewer and water facilities is also com- plained of, and an effort will be made to induce ‘the Commissioners to urge upon Congress the line portance of makiag appropriations to carry out the needed improvements in this locality. PROJECTIONS OVER THE BUILDING LINE. Engineer Commissioner Lydecker and Building Inspector Entwisle have lately been considering What steps should be taken to check the alleged abuse of the privilege granted to builders of con- structing projections beyond the bullding line. This privilege, it ts claimed, was designed to give an ornamental character to butidings, but it has been taken advantage of to enlarge houses by en- croaching upon the public ground, these additions being-in Some cases quite the reverse of ornamen- tal. It is the opinton of the officials that the regu. lations will have to be modified if the beauty and breadth of the streets are to be preserved. ——.—__—— The City Markets. THE DETERIORATING EFFECT OF HOT WKATHER— SMALL FRUITS, CANTALOUPRS AND WATERMELONS —OTHER YEATURES OF THE WEEK. Flour fs in fair demand, about equal to the re- cetpts, with nochange in prices. New wheat Is get- ting to bemore plentiful,and there ts promise of an abundant and valuable crop. The offerings of hay are fair as to quantity and quality; fine old hay 1s worth $16 to $17 per ton, while fine new Tanges from $10 to $12. Clover Is lower, and straw, though not much in demand just now, 13 cheap. Corn ts selling at $3.25 per barrel. The hay crop 1s excellent this year, and'a low rate of prices is an- Ucipated. Mill feed is reasonable in price, and will be abundant. The demand for butter 1s atout the same for best quality, but the market ts re- arded as slow. There 1s a perceptible falling off quality of the first class brands. THE NOT WEATHER has the effect of deteriorating the best goods, par- Ucularly on the outside where It ts exposed, which gives a bad Impression to dealers and consumers; the resuit is that less butter 1s used at this season, and tn place of {t more fruitis consumed. Even the best New York grades area little behind in ality. Prices, however, are very little changed since list week.’ The egg market is weil supplied, but there are many poor ezgs being recelv i deductions made in price accordingly; 15 tv 16 cents per dozen in large lots 1s now the ruling price to-day. Te poultry market ts only reason- ably active. The best spring chickens are rather quiet at 15 cents, and old _fowis are hard to sell at 10cents, while ducks are selling at 12 to 13 cents, Dried fruits are still scarce aud high. FRUITS. Green fruits are becoming more plentiful, and the varieties in their season are increasing dally. Yeaches from the south are quite plentiful and of good quality and condition. Good early cooking apples are in demand, and are seMing quite lively; pears of excellent quality can be obtained at $1.50 to $3 per box. The small fruits, such as whortle- berries and blackberries, are disposed of in our markets in large quantities. Watermelons(Georgia) are of good quality, and are reckoned as the best in the market; they range from-420 to $40 per hun- Gred; cantalotipes (Norfolk) are said to lead this year in quality in our markets, and sell ut $2.50 to Sper barrel, while the Richmond sell tor $1 to $1.50 per barrel; the Cone river variety. known as dams’ nutinégs,” sold by Worster & Adams, are something very fine, and sell for $5 to $6 per bar- rel. North Carolina watermelons are of poor quality this year, and though of large size, sell from $5 to $i2 per hundred. New potatoes’ are cheap and generally of good pony. Tomatoes are coming down to reasonable figures. Green corn, cabbuge, string beans, and other garden truck are abundant. Foreign fruits are in supply; oranges range from $4.50 to $5.50 per some choice ones have been sold at $6; lemons, $4 to $6 per box; bananas, $2.50 to $4.50 per bunch; Itmes, $9 per Dbl; cocoa nuts, $4 to $5 per 100; pine apples, $1.25 to $1.50 per dozen.

The only obstacle or delay we encountered on the route was in Philadelphia, where the rail- road companies are censurable for not providing some sort of conveyance for pa:senzers through the city to Camden, where we take the West Jer- Sey road to this place. We were forced to the alternative of taking a, carriage or walking @ square or two to the Market-street cars, which run to the terry.
