THR SHARON ESTATE A¥D 4 NUMBER OP CALI- FORNIaNS BUY 1,200 acnegs oF sUBURBAN LARD NOBTE OF THE CITI—HALF A MILLION PAID FOR THE WALBRIDGE FLACK. puss A terieg of real estate purchases have just been closed up which in theirextent and in the magnitude of the sums involved have never be- fore been equaled in this city, For some weeks past, as has been noted from time to time in Tux Stan, real estate circles have been much interested in the active movement in suburban property to the north and northwest Of the city. Owners of tracts of land have re- ceived offers for their property of such a char- acter that they could not refuse. It was soon found that a systematic plan had been adopted and that nearly all the purchases lay slong the line of Connecticut avenue extended. oy large number oo ee tracts were secured on options, 5 . A. Armes, who is in the Peal sotate ivermean now that the tribulations arising from his numerous court martials have been settled, seems to have taken the initiative in this movement, Beginning at Woodley park he secured optiouson nearly every Piece of! Property in the vicinity of Connecticut avenue extended all the way out to the Dis- trict line. Maj. Armes, h@wever, had no in- tention of buying this property for himself. THE CALIFORNIA SYNDICATE, He succeeded a short time ago, having his pockets full of options, in interesting several gentlemen of wealth in this enterprise. The result was thata syndicate was formed, which has already been given the name of the ‘*Cali- fornia syndicate.” The appropriateness of the name was suggested by the fact that the lead- ing members of the syndicate are citizens of California. The trustees of the estate of the late ex-Senator Sharon, represented by Mr Newlands, are the principals in this syndicate, and associated with them ure several other men of wealth, so that the syndicate is said to be well supplied with funds. They have gone into an enterprise which requires at the outset a capital of at least ONE MILLION AND A HALF of dollars, This large sum, which is said to represent the prices agreed to be paid for the various properties, is many times larger than has ever been invested in Washington property at one time and by one set of men. It is the biggest real estate transaction ever known here, and, while It is difficult to get the details of the transaction, yet it is the talk in all real estate offices and brokers are anxious to know the particulars, The princi, in the affair say thatthe time has not yet come to talk, and Maj. Armes told a Star reporter this morning that he had nothing to say, However, what everybody wants to know is not long kept secret andso it has been possible to gather oe many details of these extended opera- ns, THR FIELD COVERED. A good idea of the field covered by these purchases can be obtained by placing a ruler on a Hopkins’ map of the city and in this way continuing Connecticut avenue extended all the way out to the District line. erty now owned by the syndicate lies on each side of the extended avenue, with the exception of the Walbridge ’ tract, The 86 acres comprised within the limits of the ground marked on the map with the name of H. §. Wallbridge adjoin Lanier Heights on the north and extend to the Pierce Mill road with Rock creek as the western boundary. A por- tion of this tract is now included in the bounds of the Zoological park. $500,000 rom one TRACT. For this property the syndicate is saidto have paid $500,000, which makes it the most costly price of all the 1,200 acres or there- abouts which they have purchased. This part of the transaction is important because it is the largest sum of money ever paid for that amount of suburban land. ‘The Kalorama tract, which is of about the same extent, was sold nearly four yeara ago for $400,000, and since that time it has held ita place as the highest priced piece of suburban property. The Walbridge tract, however, brought 100,000 more. Leaving this property and beginuing on the line of Connecticut avenue extended at the northern limits of Woodley park the properties secured, with their acreage, are as follows: Walter W. Evans tract, 125 acres; a portion of Richmond ag 67 acres; the Klingle tract, 84 acres; W. Ryan tract, 109 acres; Mrs, Sterrit tract, 64 acres; Chas. H. Payne tract, 46 acres; Adelia French tract, 46 acres; David Shoemaker tract, 55 acres; W. J. Belt tract, 67 acres, and a num- ber of smaller pieces, It is estimated that the entire purchase made by the syndicate com- prise about 1,200 acres, IMPROVEMENTS CONTEMPLATED, While they have spent a million and a half in securing this property it is suid to be their in- tention to expend a similar sum in improve- ments, Their plans are not yet determined, still it is understood that they intend to build a railroad and develop the property. THE SHARON ESTATE. ‘The Sharon estate, which is the largest owner in this syndicate purchase, already own « great deal of real estate in this city. A large part of the Sharon property here was purchased by the late Senator Sharon from the late Ju Sunderland It is a curious co- incidence that Judge Sunderland, in connection with Judge Hillyer and Senator Stewart, constituted what was known in the year 1871 as the California syndicate. They came here trom California and their big purchases of real estate in the northwestern section of the city was the talk of the town. The first California syndicate grew wealthy by buying land that did not then seem to have as good a future as that which the later syndicate has just secured, os STILL A PRISONER, James M. Watson, the Alleged Forger, to Have a Hearing Tomorrow. James M. Watson, the young forger, an ac- count of whose operations was published in yesterday's Stan, has been in custody ever since last Friday night. He was placed under arrest at that time by Private Detectives McElfresh and Williams and taken to the first precinct station, There was no warrant for him at that time so far as is known, but the young man was held prisoner until yesterday, when a warran: issued by Justice Moffatt on Dr. Fardon’s oath was formally served on him, ‘This morning the prisoner was not taken to the Police Court, but was detained at the police station. He will be taken to the Police Court tomorrow morning, at which time the witnesses have been notified to appear. —— THE ENGLISHMAN RILED, Joe Fielden Says Billy Young is Afraid to Fight Him, as He Agreed to Do. Joe Fielden when seen by a Star reporter today was mad clear through over the denial made by Billy Young of any knowledge of an exhibition match between them, for which tickets were being sold. “Young agreed to box me,” said the little Eng- lishman, ‘‘on the 17th, I was to give him $50 be- fore he came in the ring, $50 more at the close of the fight and an extra $50 if ne bested me. He said he was hard up and agreed to the ments, which were considered liberal by every onc, Please say that if he weakens Billy Lally will take his place at the exhibition, and if the fight is not satisfactory to the spectators all money will be refunded. Young knew I was training and he is scared. Please say also that I will fight him for $1,000 a side and forfeit the stakes if I do not stop him in eight rounds,” pons > cushion, For an Inebriate Asylum.
