VALUABLE TRACT OF LAND SOLD

The sale of twelve acres of industrial land in West Hammond with 600 feet frontage on the Grand Calumet river has been announced and the transaction is considered of Importance in Hammond commercial circles. Snydacher &. Co.. barkers at 155 Washington street, and Francis Lackner of the law firm 01 tackner, Butt Von Anom conducted the sale and the purchaser was an eastern capitalist. The use to which the property is to be put has not been announced but it is

presumed because of the river and railroad frontage it will be used for industrial purposes. The land ts bounded on the west by Wentworth avenue, to the. north by the river, on the south by the Indiana Harbor Belt Railway, and on the east by the G. H. Hammond packing grounds. The ' reported consideration was 12,000 an acre. This establishes a price per acre on the adjacent land. The packing company grounds owned by Swift t Co.. have been held at a high figure, tmd it is considered possible the precedent established by this sale may induce the owners to accept a lower iprice and thus put the valuable property back into industrial usage.
