There are also well-defined reports that Baldwin is anxious to sell the old hotel site, but it is a big piece of property and the'old man does not wish to cut it up. If he sells it at all he wants the whole thing to go together, but if he can get tock company going there will be no sity for selling it. plans are still indefinite—all but' the story building—but-whether that wlil be a temporary or a permanent structure remains to be seen.
