Sales in Various Quarters--Trans« fers for the Weelk A casunl inquirer, who should go around among the numorons roal estate owners and brokors of this city, and ask about tho condition of tho roal cslate markot, would bo a good doal puzzled to form o deflnite opinion about the mattor, Somo would toll him it was ** Dall, ox- cosgivoly dull ; nothing dolng.” Others would toll him that thore was * a good business and as much boing dono now 43 usual at this sonson of the yoar ; moro than might naturally bo oxpeotod in tho present condition of trade and flnancos.” Tho fack 15, that both thoso reports would bo correot, tho oxplanation belng that thoy rofer to difforent olusacs of property, It is o fact that nearly all ““inside” property, whother improved or unimproved, whother available for residenco or busiuoss purposes, at prices rangiug from 8200 per front foot " for residence ground up to §2,000 por front foot for tha bost business ground in the oity, is hard to sell. There aro few buy- ors of high-priced property now, aud it would bo diflioult to make forcod salea without a consider- able reduction of cstimated values, On the other - hand, low-priced proporty, particularly subur- banlots and acros,. arg in demand, and full as - much ia boing 80ld ‘now as nsualnt this . season of the yoar, tho gront majority of./ib ac considor- ably highor prices than Lo sathoipibperty could Lave beon bought for fast aprings piry Oune gront causo of this discrimination againat “inglde™ property is EXOESSIVE CITY TAXATION. This falls _altke on busivess -and resldence property. Itcostanow, on an average, 25 per cont of the routal of eithor residonco of busi- .ness building to pay tho aggregate of Slato, and cily taxes, For & medium dwollings, worth from 6,000 to £6,000 (exclusive of the lot), and for cheap cottages insido the city limits, tiie proportion of tnxos to rontals is not 50 groat, but for fine rosi- dences and business buidings it is, in many instances, mors than that, One cause of - this disproportion of taxes to rontals at prosent is ho 10W DENTA. In tho robuilding of the business district of the city the competition becweon different quar- tors to scoure the looation of certain olassos of trado induced the erectia, not ouly of & great many moro storss aud ofiices thau wero ever in tho city bofors, but of much mare claborate and oxpensive buildings in all cagos, Lvon if thero hnd beon no reduction of rents for the snme storeaand offices on the same sites as bofore tho fira, the rontals would nok ‘B:v the samo rate of intoreston the investmant, ¢auso tho buildings have, almost without ex- coption, costfrom 26 to 50 per cent moro than thoold oues, and, in many instances, 100 per centmoro. Of course, the commorcial crisie L dimivished the prospect of sn iucroaso of ronts proportiouate to tho cost of tho buildings, aud, ou the contrary, has depressed trade, and mado o prospect that merchants will not be avle to pay ovon so much a8 thoy do'now. The stringancy of tho money market of couras provents the nmfiluymunt of large sums of mou- oy that would otherwise scek invostmont in im- proved roal cstate. Trom Mr. A, J. Averell, who deals almost ox- clueively in tho finest class of rosidences, we loarn that thero is nost touo inquiry at all for that class of realty. Thore arc moneyed mon who would buy, but they feel indifforont about it, and would not buy excopt at reductions of from 10 to 20 por cont on prices askod six months ngo, ‘T'his class of purchasers, Lowovor, do not estab- lish prices, and thore is really no market for this particular kind of property, A medium class of dwallings, contlng froin 25,000 to 86,000 each for tho housos, would soll moro roadify. . SUBOBDAN LOTS AND ACHES, Thore is iu this city, as porbaps in all others, a et of gloomy-minded, sour-tompored, croak- ing old meu, who nover tire of prophesying avil from * the inflation of outsido real eatate,” Thoy are in most instances old oltizeus, and mon of moderate wonlth, who Lavo acquired all that thoy have by the increase in value of real estate, Théy acqnired it vo ensily and unexpoctodly that they nover can quito [l)umuada thomselves that the procoss was a logilimato ome. In their shrowd, narrow-minded way of thinking, they congratwiatod themsolves that they got out of *renl-ostate bubblos ¥ with thoir profits, and kopt out, Tholr coutractod viow nover teok in the fact that Chicago has steadily been growing into ono of the groatest cnmz:lmmlul and manufacturing cities of the world. "Phis class of mon have always prophesied s collapse in suburban real estato. Yet even the most_inveterate croaker of them sll must ac- knowledge that it such a collapge was ever to como,jt would huve douo so & montk ago. Tho exporfonco, howevor, of tho bank panio snd the commoercisl crisis, like that of tho fire of 1871, show no euch effects on suburban real ostato; acres within ton miles of the businoss contre, and cheap suburban lots, Aol almost a8 readily now as ususl at this season of the yoar, and it seems reasonably cor- tain that, if savings dopositors could get their monay out of tho saviugs banks, the salos of chesp lots at from $200 to $1,000 each would be mora active than now. The recont AUQTION AT SOUTH ONICAGO was, we thiuk, a tost of the strongth of tho mar kot for this class of provorty underthe mosb advorse circumstances. Tho Wweathor that day (Mondnyi was_cold and stormy, the general commercial and financial outlook, throughouk the ocountry, was as gloomy as at any time 1 tho Jast two months, and yot thore were probably 800 persons who wont down to South Cliicago in tho special train to attend the sale, the great majority of them having somo inten- tion of buying. ‘Tho property it on the south gide of the Calumot River, in the Town of Bouth Chicago, and is, in a divect_Imo, about_oloven milen nouth of the Court-Houso in this ecity.
