Rents at St. Louis

Rents at St. Louis.—If you are going to attend the exposition at St. Louis, you may be interested in the price of houses and flats during that season of luxury and display. The Real Estate Bulletin, of that city, gives the following list of ordinary prices, and the prices that will rule during the fair. These prices are by the month:—
Western Dwellings.
Number of Rooms. Usual Rent. Exposition Rent.
Ten $60 $150
Nine 45 125
Eleven 40 100
Twelve 50 125
Thirteen 40 100
Twelve 40 100
Western Flats and Rooms.
Eight $35
General Dwellings.
Sixteen $110
Southwest Flats and Rooms.
Five and six $25
Furnished.
Fourteen $85
Nine 70
Not given 110
Thirteen 125
There are other items of expense about which you might wish information that are not so frankly published; but it is fair to suppose that everything else will bear about the same relation to ordinary prices as the items given above. That is, during the fair every item of expense will be from two to five times the ordinary rate.
