The purchasers, John Rosen- feld’s Sons, after making a great num- | ber of investments in the city, have con- cluded to make a permanent investment parcel of property. The seller is Mrs. Charlotte Clarke. Both pur- chasers and scller are clients of A. J. | Rich & Co., the brokers who brought about the transfer. In conjunction with the fofegoing sale the same firm of brokers has purchased for a client of its office from John Rosen- feld's Sons for $100,000 their holding on the northwest corner of Bush and Stock- ton streets, known as the’ Chamberlain Hotel. John Rosenfeld’'s Sons would not have parted with this holding had it not been for the News building investment, as this is a large plece of land. This building of 125 rooms, when fully renovat- | ed and plumbed and painted, will rent for | $7 per room; therefore the interest return | of this investment is good in the amount | paid for it. | RESIDENCE PROPERTIES.

Their names are James E. Powers, George A. Williams and Edward F. Morris, and | they say they came from the East about | two months ago. | The premises occupied by the American | shirt factory, of which Fred J. Bumel is | proprietor, at 1608 Market street, were en«‘ tered by means of the transom over the | front door. The till had been forced open | and $2 taken, besides about elght dozen | silk handkerchiefs, valued at $9, and a | quantity of silk umbrellas and underwear. A lot of umbrellas packed up ready to | be carried away had been taken to the | rear door, opening on Hayes street, but | the burglars had been unable to open the | door. The supposition is that the bur-| glars had been frightened off before com- | pleting their work. The burglars had opened the transom of a clothing store near the shirt factory | when they were observed by the officers and quickly placed under arrest. Most of the articles stolen from the shirt factory were found in their possession, and yes- terday the men were booked at the City Prison on a charge of burglary. Within the past two or three weeks the following stores have been entered by burglars by means of transoms and money and articles stolen: Irvine Broth- ers’ grocery, 1302 Polk street; A. M. Smith’s drugstore, 1300 Polk street; I. Hohlweg's drugstore, Jackson and Polk streets; Val Schmidt's drugstore, Jackson and Polk streets; Robinson & Knox, cery, 876 Valencia street, and the Peopl drugstore, Fourth and Howard streets.
