Condition and Prospects of Business Properly and Business Rents, Speoulation iy Mainly in Suburban Aores, South C'ricago, Washington Heights, Englewood, Hinsdale. Important Auction and Private Sales in the City, Tho indications of a favorablo changein tho renl cutato markot noted n wook AZO are cons firmed this week by greator activity, greator speculative inquiry, and by genoral oxprossions. of mors contidonce. This fecling, lowover, is conflned mainly to rosidenco and manufacturing proporty in tho subwbs, Itis genorally con- codod that thero is no speculative inducoment 1o invest ovon in the most contral business prop- esty at prosent. Owners of this class of ronlty found it mob only necesgury to robuild on their ground to provent ita doprociation by tho threatenod chango of business locations aftor tho fire, but also found it necossary to erect a much belter class of huildings in evory part of the busmoess district. Tho result is that now, at nearly the ond of two years after the destruction of tho old city, Chi- cago has at lonst 50 per cont more first-clase stores in the businoss district than at this timo two yoara ago. Of really firat-class offico room, thero is probably twico as much as thers was then. While tho goneral trade of tho city i un- doubtedly much larger now than two years ngo, it doos not yot make o demaud for all the oxtra storo snd office room crented sinco 1871, Btoro and office rents are low yot, hence thers arono great inducemonts to buy contral busi- ness proporty end build on it, excopt tho fact that building materials are -unusually low, aud ihe probability that an incroase of trade mow #eemd tolerably certain to result from tho abun- danco of crops in the West, and tho prosent nc- tivity of marketing them. Those latter olrcum- stances aro & wolid basis for commercial pros- perity this fall and noxt spring to n degre not surpasted in any former year. In fact, the commercial outlook, mnot” only for this city, but for the West gouerally, has scarcoly ever looked so promising as it doea now. Theso circumstancos * will uudoubledly make au in- crensed domand for stores and offices noxt spring. It "is a sgomowhat mingular fact that comparatively fow of thosa who buy and spoculate in real eutnto, pay any attention to the gencral conditiomn of trade and industry in the country at large. Nino out of ten buy bocauso othors buy, and imbibe their confidenco from the boldness of their operations Increasing values of city real oatate ato, howover, only an incident of prosporous trado n other things., The commercial ‘)osmon of the city i the solo foundation of its growth. When ity trado incronsos its population and its real estata values incronse in the samo ratio. Itisin this viow of tho caso that the prosont flattering pros- pects of active business this fall and next #pring-imtho goneri.+trado of tho ity promise, also, much specnlative aotivity in real estato. SUBURDAN PIOPERTY. It would bo difticult to vay in which quarter of tho suburbs there is tho most activity just at resont. In nearly all diroctions the “largest and-owners are fiill of projects for new streots, botter sewers, and other similar improvements, There s, however, ono point in - tho suburbs which must soon exercise an influence, to draw the city out towaid it, more powerful than all the other suburban influences put togethor. That point is the Calumet Harbor, which cannot fail o eventually talte a largo share of tho heavy froight busincss in lumber, cosl, iron, and iron-ores_from Chicago Rivor, In fact, if the Calumet Harbor nod River had been mado availablo youra ago, as they have now boon within tho past six months, by the Government work in cloaring_out tho channel and building the piers, South Ohicago would now be doing an important shara of the tranafor of froights from cars to vessols, and vice versa, As mentioned last weok, thorearoindicationsof much gpeculative activity in suonrban lands bo- tween iyde Park Hotel and SBouth Chicago. Wo hear of tho suls of ono tract of 40 acres in_the north half of Sec. 31, at 81,260 por acre, which ‘was bought a year ago at $700 per acre, aud slso of anothor gale of an undivided quarter intercst in 160 acros, half a milo north of the above, nt tho rato of 31,260 por ero. 'Tho fact is, thefois not much land in that vicinity offered for eale, THLE SOUTIL SUORE RAILROAD from Parkside Station to South Chicago, will probably be built within tho next thirty days, ag woundorstand tho contract for its coustruction has been signed, and that & vorbal agrecment s been made with the Ilinois Contral Railroad Company to operate it when completod. A LARGE TIRANBACTION, Mr. O. J. Stougl, woll known as the founder of tho plorsant suburban town of Hinsdale, has recently mado one of the largost transactions in roul oatate over made between privato individuals in this part of the coun- try. M. Stough has sold tos party of Chicago capitalists (for whom Mr. Olarles E. Brunor is trustes and negotiator), for tho sum of 3400,~ 000, all his interost In tho town of IHinudalo (ex- copt his privato residenco), consisting of 80,000 foet frontage of town lots, and also 400 acres of adjoining land, The lots aro in a tolorably com- pact body near the railroad-station, and the 400 acres of }blll‘ odjoin tho town on the west. Tho lots aro partly improved, and tho salo includos ono church, ono building used for a town hall, and ten dwelling-honses. Soven years ago, Mr. Btough lived at Hinsdalo all ulono, ho had bought about 500 acres of Innd, aund deliberatoly sot to work to build o town. That ho lab accomplished his purpose is shown by tho fact lYmt Hiuedalo now containe 1,600 in- Lobitants, and that Mr. Btough has not only built a town but made » fortuno. Heo ascribea his succoss mainly to bis uufaltering confidence in tho valuo of suburban proporty around Chicago, aud to his persistont ndmrtis!uF in Tur Onroago TrRInUNE. As part of the considor- ation for his Hinadalo property, Mr. Stough takes a deod from Denj. Lombard for the fina residonco No. 2 on Calumot avenuo, just north of Twentioth street, Including 111 fest of front- age aud n strip of ground on the opposite side of the straot to presorve tho lake view from the front of tho rosidence.
