In other news of the day:
GARY Condit has settled his defamation case against Vanity Fair columnist Dominick Dunne. The former California congressman sued Dunne for $11 million over remarks he made on radio suggesting that Condit had wanted Chandra Levy dead and that he was involved in her kidnapping and murder. Under the deal reported by the Fox News Channel, Dunne will pay an undisclosed amount of money to Condit and issue an apology. It also means Condit won't have to testify under oath about a sexual relationship with Levy, the Washington intern who vanished in 2001. (Page Six)
Could Donald Trump become Bill and Hillary Clinton's landlord? Real-estate brokers have been buzzing that the former White House tenants are considering a two-or three-bedroom pad at The Donald's Trump Riverside complex on the Hudson.
While no one's saying they're going to give up their Westchester County house, sources claim the ex-President is in the market for a Manhattan pied-a-terre as he recovers from heart surgery and pursues his tsunami relief work at the United Nations.
Kathy Sloane, the Brown Harris Stevens broker who handled the Clintons' home purchases in D.C. and Chappaqua, says she's been inundated with calls about it.
But, she told us, "I think this story is seriously off track."
Spokesmen for President and Sen. Clinton both called rumors that the couple have their eyes on Trump's 220 Riverside building "untrue."
A friend acknowledged, "Bill may have looked at a floor plans. He does seem to have a desire for a Manhattan place, because his office is in Harlem and he does so much speaking here."
It's not as if Trump, whose wedding to Melania Knauss the former First Couple attended, would be averse to having the Clintons move in.
"Donald's always inviting them down to Mar-a-Lago," said a Trump crony.
Despite the 1-1/2-hour shlep to the suburbs, a friend insisted, "They love Chappaqua.
"Hillary isn't about to desert her base there as she's running for re-election. Getting a place in Manhattan sends the wrong message."
Hillary is said to have spent much of last weekend at her recuperating husband's side.
"It's also the wrong time for Bill," a friend said.
"He's getting out of the hospital [after surgery]. It's been an exhausting time for him."
Brokers have often floated rumors of Clinton interest in Manhattan apartments to help sell them.
Said one real-estate maven: "Chances are someone is putting this out there for their own purposes."

We at FR in general and the Guild in particular have known for a long time that Susan Estrogen was nuts but now others are catching on... Estrich's vicious attack
..it was Ms. Estrich's vicious attack on Los Angeles Times Opinion Editor Michael Kinsley that was so shocking. Ms. Estrich used Mr. Kinsley's suffering from Parkinson's disease as easy fodder for her attacks on the newspaper. She insisted that his failure to publish women like herself is evidence that "your illness may have affected your brain, your judgment, and your ability to do this job." Ms. Estrich warned Mr. Kinsley that he is "digging a grave for [him] self."
